Google forced to – wah! – OBEY the LAW with privacy policy tweaks

dominio público

Privacy Policies are getting harder to read.

Privacy policies are just more confusing and more annoying now. This isn't helping. If people don't like a company's privacy policy then don't use that company's services. It's simple business economics. If people cared about privacy policies then people would be flocking away from Google for other services with "better privacy", but that isn't happening.

Not to mention, I am supposed to be reading 6-7 of these privacy policies a week as I need to agree to them every time anything about the policy changes. Isn't me using the website consent enough?

A better solution would be to educate users about technology much the same way drugs and smoking are handled. Nobody quit smoking because the government forced cigarette companies to place a warning on the package; they quit because they were educated about what happens when you use it.

Good grief! Have you seen BlackBerry's square smartphone?

Trackpad cum?

Who would want a trackpad-cum keyboard? Is that actually what it's called or a typo?

NASA: Satellite which will end man-made CO2 debate in orbit at last

Let's talk about controlling the climate the same way we control the climate in our house. Whether it was man made, out of our control, part of a cycle, not part of a cycle, the beginning of a Mars attack, or a figment of our perception, we all would like to live comfortably.

Why is there an argument?

I give nudies to anybody I don't trust

We live in a weird time when people want to give nude pictures of themselves to people that they don't trust so they give them to a third party business instead and think that that is somehow better.
