Re: Game changer Other companies admit to the selling, sharing, and exploitation of your private information too if you're willing to read the privacy statements. The problem is that people see a shiny new service for a decent price and then stop listening/reading after that. Back to "average" consumers, which this thread is aimed at, generally they don't know, or care, about the privacy issues...until it's too late....and that includes Google services as well. |

| The fact that these companies generally have hidden their privacy practices (and other practices) from the public in the past has already broken the trust. Just because right now they disclose information on privacy practices doesn't somehow negate that.

kudos:2 | I don't know about you, but I receive "privacy statements" all of the time in the mail from companies that I do business with. A quick 2 or 3 minute read informs me of the situation, and what I need to do to opt out of their "value added services". |
