I agree - there's something a tad hypocritical about companies like Google and Facebook who voraciously track and record as much online browsing behaviour as they possibly can. Where is the transparency from these companies on what they record and track? Just go and read Google's privacy policies - so vaguely worded, they tell you nothing about what they track and record. Google, in particular has it's digital fingerprints all over the web. Its' online reach is far greater than any other company. They even have an entire OS that potentially tracks your every action. Sure, they are not using the data they collect for nefarious purposes, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be subject to much greater scrutiny. Just look at the quote from Larry Page on the website: "The security of users' data is critical..." It's not just about security, but about privacy too. Privacy and security are related but separate issues. You can have the best security in the world and continue to voraciously gobble every byte of data you can possibly capture. I don't doubt Google's commitment to security matters. But can you trust them on matters of privacy?
