I watched this video quite a while ago and it has actually made me more aware of my privacy. Google does indeed collect a lot of information and it is beginning to scare me about how much they know about me as an individual.
Are you scared? Do you think Google is “evil”?

It has always been said that information is power. That is taking on a whole new meaning now. My email, what websites I visit, those websites, my financial information are all online and I guess Google under the banner of wanting to make all information digitally available will try to consume it.
Am I worried, at the moment no, Google are generally sticking to their “do no evil” motto and also there are alternative if I felt threatened.
Could it all change, yep, 9/11 showed how a mindset of a nation can change overnight, who knows what will be acceptable in the future, who know what Google will control.
Watch this space!!!
