I like Google's products but have nothing to gain by reviewing them favorably, nor do I have any relationship with them. I'm sorry you're angry, but don't be unreasonable, or rude. There's room on the web for more than one opinion, and based on this comment, I don't see a lot of thoughtfulness in yours. I think you should read my take on whether you can expect privacy from free services like Google to get a better handle on where I'm coming from on that issue. http://shannonturlington.com/2010/02/13/should-you-expect-privacy-from-online-services/ Wow, I think calling me a sycophant with absolutely no basis for making that accusation is pretty harsh.

They've managed to disenfranchise most of their user base in one fell swoop. Congratulations, even the original poo-brown Zune wasn't as big a flop as this. Sycophantic reporting, like the post above, blatantly run against the overwhelming view that this is a major breach of privacy. What ever happened to 'Do no evil?'. This is the 'evil' that was promised not to be perpetrate upon us, the Google loyal, and it'll stain the good reputation of Google for a good, long time. And so it should.

And so it should.
