Since Google Calendar once sent a reply to an invitation I had sent to a friend back an e-mail address I usually don't use and I definitely told nobody about except Google (it was a Google Mail account), I don't trust Google. Obviously they are joining information about me somewhere in their system and acidentally or not they are sometimes leaking that information to others. The Google Buzz invitation thing that even revealed addresses and phone numbers to people definitely not authorized and the records Google made of communication in open WiFi networks (which was against the law even in the US) are other extreme examples. The problem is not so much malice but that the sheer existence of that kind of information coupled with the fact that sometimes people, even Google developers, are not aware of some cosequences an action might have makes this quite problematic and me want to keep their information about me as limited as possible. -- pippin --- see iPeng, the Squeezebox iPhone remote and *New: iPeng for iPad*, at penguinlovesmusic.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pippin's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13777 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=88188 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
