Even if opt-in, this could be a privacy disaster because people won't consider the consequences. Letting a friend use a computer to look something up in google is something we do all the time. Oh, whoops, turns out there's your email inviting a friend to the swinger's club that happens to be on the same street as the restaurant you're going to lunch at.
- rryan 14y agoSee Matt_Cutts' response below: > That's right. The matches from Gmail are collapsed unless you specifically indicate intent with search keywords like "gmail" or "email."
- agscala 14y agoThat's not really a big deal seeing as how I can just click on the big ol' GMAIL button in the top-left and go straight to my friend's inbox if I really wanted to see his email anyways.
- barista 14y agoWhat is different is that you are intentionally spying on your friend if you did that. Here, your friend is unintentionally revealing contents of his inbox to you.
- lawdawg 14y agoconsidering the gmail results are hidden and require clicking on a link to show them, its not much different than opening up your friends email now is it?
