Google and Facebook move to change (your) privacy settings
Google and Facebook are in the process of gathering all available information on it’s users to be consolidated into huge databases and ‘may’ be accessible or sold to companies and government agencies wanting to know how you use the internet, sites you have visited. People that you have chatted with and what information/sites you have searched for.
I have used Gmail from it’s start. However, I am now abandoning Gmail service and changing my email service to another smaller service that is much less intrusive into my life.
I now use several other search engines for my internet searches. At least to me, keeping my private information private is more important than the extra time I may invest Not Using Google’s mail and search engine.
Using the Gmail Vacation response message, I now notify all people that mail me at Gmail that a human {me} will never see any messages sent to this account.
I also now never sign in to any Google sponsored service effectively ending Google’s ability to track and collect my personal information and my internet activities. I am switching to and now using Firefox browser. Google’s Chrome browser being owned and operated by Google is collecting information on your searches, sites you visit, logging your keystrokes. Also a simple Chrome uninstall is ineffective, google/chrome leaves many files, and folders on your hard drive. It is not an easy task to escape google’s intrusion on your private information and your computer usage.
I have never had or logged into Facebook or Myspace, so this is not a concern for me. However if you are concerned about protecting your private information you should also abandon Facebook and Myspace accounts and ‘Never’ log in to or use those sites again.
It’s your private information and ONLY you can protect Your Private information.
Why is common sense so uncommon?
