New Google Privacy concerns
« on: February 28, 2012, 11:01:50 AM »
There is a lot of "scarey" talk about the new rules about to be implemented by Google. As I read it they will take all the info they have on you that was considered private and make it available for advertisers to target you. Now Google finds out a lot about people as they record every search you make, any Googlemail/Gmail message you ever sent or received, etc etc.

If you are not happy about this you have one chance left to stop your information being used by others - and I recommend you do this. Go here:

God knows what sort of info they gather about us. My basic rules when on the internet are;
Never look at any adverts.
Never open any attachments.
Never agree with Pete on a public forum, and
When using porn, always log on as Fly.
