You are naive if you think this has not already been happening for years in many different facets on the internet. Don't like it, but it is there.

Meh. I guess I'm from a different generation. As long as I'm still allowed to do whatever I want, I don't care if someone's watching. I pretty much assume the government knows everything about me already anyway. Those red light cameras piss me the fk off though

On one of my accounts it let me pause it, on the other it just gave me an option to turn it on or "no thanks". If you clicked "no thanks" it just took you to the google homepage. Do i have to turn it on to pause it? (probably a really stupid question lol)

I've been locked down six ways from Sunday for over a decade now. And I don't use Google as my main search engine anyway. Even if I did, they and their affiliates would get little from me.

One had it set to paused, no idea how it was ever turned on. The other never had it turned on. What pisses me off is that it bricks my Galaxy Nexus...if I want to stop using Google stuff.

i don't have gmail but i do use google and have a youtube account i definitely think we need consumer protection laws that allows us to safeguard/protect against info collection....there needs to be a guaranteed opt out clause that isn't conditional on the product's use...
