Google announces privacy changes across products; users can’t opt out

Google will soon know far more about who you are and what you do on the Web.

The Web giant announced Tuesday that it plans to follow the activities of users across nearly all of its ubiquitous sites, including YouTube, Gmail and its leading search engine.

Google has already been collecting some of this information. But for the first time, it is combining data across its Web sites to stitch together a fuller portrait of users.

Consumers who are logged into Google services won’t be able to opt out of the changes, which take effect March 1. And experts say the policy shift will invite greater scrutiny from federal regulators of the company’s privacy and competitive practices.

dendroica: This image captured by the Solar Dynamics Observatory shows an M9-class solar flare erupting on the Sun’s northeastern hemisphere, just four days after a previous strong coronal mass ejection that sparked auroras around the world. A very fast coronal mass ejection (CME) travelling four million miles per hour (6.4 million kilometres per hour) is headed towards the Earth. A rush of radiation in the form of solar protons already has begun bombarding the Earth and is likely to continue through Wednesday. The radiation storm is the largest of its kind since 2005 but still ranks only a three on the scale of one to five, enough to be considered “strong” but not “severe”.

karenabad: Public transportation is something that’s really important to me. I decided to buy line maps of the train systems I’ve frequented in my life. I got the ones for New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Berlin, Paris, and London. They look lovely. Check them out on FAB.

SOPA to me equals a soup gone bad

kateoplis:

Under SOPA, streaming copyrighted content would be a felony. Anyone who posts/downloads copyrighted work faces up to five years in jail.

So to recap, “you could get five years in jail for uploading a Michael Jackson song, one more than the doctor who killed him.”

I have to be consistent with my health so I’m back to eating non-gluten foods.

I’ve suggested this to my physician last year and she has seen an improvement in my overall diet.
