Yeah, the Google stuff is creepy. It's really annoying too.  They are already doing that. If you have access to other people's computers (like in your family) you can go to You Tube and find out what they've been watching by what recommendations come up.
 
I hate the way they pick up keywords in an email and put ads on the side that match them. Like someone uses the word divorce in an email (talking about a movie plot) and then I start getting ads for divorce lawyers. Now with the new policy where email, google and YouTube get mixed up that means I could be getting that stuff on all three. Who's to say what kind of trouble something like that could get you into at work, at home or ???

What is really annoying is when this message pops up and says you might want to include these other people in your email.  Really?  I think I'm capable of deciding who I want to send the email to without their help- it's usually someone who is the last person I'd want to send a copy of it to. It's creepy because it's like they're saying we know who your friends are.

It bugs me that they keep track of subjects you google because I google all kinds of things.  Like I see something on here I don't understand and I look it up.Can't you imagine some crazy world someday where you get interrogated for why you googled a certain subject and you're going uh, IDK, I saw it on glp, please don't kill me LOL  It's like the thought police want to know everything thought we have and everything we do.

I guess the only solution is to stop using email as a form of letter writing to keep in touch with people and only use it for short messages and for business. Plus, I hate to see the day I have to stop posting on glp, cause we all know nobody is really anonymous. That's why I already try to avoid politics or anything personal in my posts because the way the world is going you don't know what innocent things you say today could get you in trouble in the future. 
Okay, now I've been pegged as paranoid. Aaarrrgghhh!

Online Privacy/ Cancer Treatments

Date: 01-31-12
Host: no name
Guests: Katherine Albrecht, Giorgio Tsoukalos
Katherine Albrecht, consumer privacy expert, and VP of startpage.com, shared her contention that Google is using our personal information to create a centralized database that intrudes on users' privacy. She also discussed the strategy and treatments she employed in her battle against breast cancer this last year. Of particular concern about Google, she said, is their plan set to begin on March 1st, in which their privacy policies across their product line (including YouTube and Gmail) will be merged into a single account for users. If you're signed into Google, they may suggest search results based on your interests in Gmail, Google +, and YouTube. For instance, the data they collect from Gmail, in which emails are scanned for keywords, may be used to give you specific results when you open up YouTube, she explained.

They also have a proposal to offer reminders via Android mobile devices based on your personal calendar, live traffic, and route, that you may be running late for an appointment. While some see services such as this as a convenience, Albrecht cited the intrusion on people's privacy. Additionally, the Google Voice service keeps track of who calls one of its users, and enters this information into its database, she noted, adding that government may one day force Google to hand over their CONTINUED HERE [link to www.coasttocoastam.com]
