| >Google and many of it's supporters conflate security with privacy. >You're still being tracked relentlessly by Google no matter how securely it's storing your online behaviour. Non sequitur conclusion from a faulty premise. If you're a Google user, then it's in your best interest that their security is up to par and they don't disappoint. I get enterprise class 2FA security to protect my data on my end and clear controls, opt-outs and buttons everywhere to delete all of my data from any particular service, plus I get to download such data in a useful, documented format for my own consumption, not some crippled html report I need to mine after the fact. If you are NOT a Google user, though, not tracking you is not their duty, but a security breach on YOUR part, especially on the part of those who kbow better. Its like a person walking naked in a public square, expecting that it was the city's duty to protect their privacy. If you are Not a Google user and do not wish to be tracked by Google or Facebook or anyone for that matter, you need to assume responsibility for the security of your data and metadata by becoming as inconspicuous on the network as you can. Again, it's nobody's duty but yours and failure to do so is a breach of your own security leading to leakage of your privacy. |
