NYTimes - Critics Say Google Invades Privacy With New Service.

Really makes me glad I never made a big push to switch over to Google services with my own mail/contacts/calendar. I feel bad for the people I've recommended their services to. Clearly the outrage over their CEO's comments in December wasn't enough to make them think that the Buzz rollout was a bad idea.

Weren't people aware of Google invading privacy before this? I mean, their business model is based on data mining to better target ads. The only difference now is they are sharing all your stuff with the world instead of just internally or to their customers. I'm surprised people still believe that 'do no evil' thing.
