Here is a bit of a follow-up to my previous post about Google and privacy.
I have had a bit of a trouble believing Google’s “Don’t be evil” motto, unofficial or not. I don’t trust companies or governments to do things in my best interest, because that is not in their best interests. I left Gmail because of seeing ads for what was in my email. It is not the ads, but the idea of a company essentially reading my email. I’ll leave Microsoft’s hotmail the second I see this happen. I am not that concerned of my searches being tracked, but there is a point where that will go over the line and we are hitting it.
