| 1428215 | 2016-11-06 21:53:00 | your anti-MS stance is clouding your judgement "The unredacted FCC report refers to a Google “design document” written by an engineer who crafted the Street View software to collect so-called payload data, which includes telephone numbers, URLs, passwords, e-mail, text messages, medical records, video and audio files sent over open Wi-Fi networks. they cat is out of the bag, has been for years. Ranting about MS: you're missing the point. They are all doing it . Dont be so naive as to think its just MS, they are a minor player in all the data collected about you . :) On the Contrary. With Google, what you failed to observe, was that their data collection was from Open Wi-Fi networks not Spyware that was Covertly placed in Your Computer. :mad: Yes we all know that they’re all up to it, to various degrees, but Microsoft have taken it to all new levels and two or more wrongs still don’t make a right. :) |

By using googles services you agree to allow them ( read their terms of usage posted before) While watching a Fairgo Program they did exactly that, there was a full window display on a shop of a family's holiday snapshot, with the companies own wording /advertising, and the family had never been approached or asked. |

For the umpteenth time, I am Not OK with ANYONE mining private information from any source. And as far as Googles and Microsoft’s Terms and Conditions go, I would like to see it tested in Court, because in most Western Country’s you can’t Avoid a Statute by Private Treaty. So, if they breach say the Privacy Act, then the Private Treaty isn’t worth the tick in the box. :) |
