Who Will Monitor Google Monitoring

Anyone with any significant amount of intelligence and willingness will simply learn enough to sniff the outbound traffic on their box for a week or something if they're that concerned.

Even if I don't like what Google does in China, for the most part, I'm totally fine with what they do here, and that's all that is part of the issue (unless, of course, you live in China, but then you probably wouldn't be reading this).

For a week? How about always? The next update thats automatically installed could be the one that does what you looked for when you first installed it, you never assume its going to be the same as it was in the first iteration.

If you are honestly that paranoid about it, the only solution is to always monitor everything always. And those who are, will, and already do.

And honestly, those who download so heavily or do things that would trigger such throttling probably can already tell and don't need such a tool anyway. Except to confirm what they already know.

The rest of us see this as a non issue. I download on occasion but the stuff I get isn't important enough that if it gets throttled that I will care that much, or probably really even notice.. Those that do know its happening and don't need a tool to tell them.

Unlike AT&T, it's not likely going to be the NSA.
