Beware Of Google by pcmecom(m): 12:25pm On Feb 15, 2010 |
MIGUEL HELFT The New York Times Febuary 14, 2010 A D V E R T I S E M E N T When Google introduced Buzz — its answer to Facebook and Twitter — it hoped to get the service off to a fast start. New users of Buzz, which was added to Gmail on Tuesday, found themselves with a ready-made network of friends automatically selected by the company based on the people that each user communicated with most frequently through Google’s e-mail and chat services. But what Google viewed as an obvious shortcut stirred up a beehive of angry critics. Many users bristled at what they considered an invasion of privacy, and they faulted the company for failing to ask permission before sharing a person’s Buzz contacts with a broad audience. For the last three days, Google has faced a firestorm of criticism on blogs and Web sites, and it has already been forced to alter some features of the service. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/02/13/technology/internet/13google.html?em |
