Hadn't seen this little video before - pretty well done. Don't have much to add to the topic though, and "do no evil" has been discussed here before :)

In  GMail, it's is well known about the SPAM recipe links in the spam folder, but what some people may have never seen is the recycling tips in the trash folder.

I spotted this one in my trash folder today:

 ;D

Are their recycling tips trying to tell us something?  :huh:

I don't like the genotype part... too much crack or do those statements have some basis?

More scary videos. One of my teachers recommended us to view this one, apparently he was thrilled with the possibilities the future may bring... personally, my mind drifts to dystopia and cyberpunk futures every time I see that video.

I figure most everything is readable on the net

the only agreement that seems to pass the test is not giving your e-mail to other companies

so the rest is fair game it seems

especially free services

If I'm a specific target then i better have nothing to hide!

This should be in the eula-
FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT.
User is entitled to know exactly what we are doing with what we know about you, in writing.

It could be a blog or website or something.

Personally I think nothing is "sacred" on the net.
Any code can be cracked.
