It's a shame Google feels the need to get into out personal business (even if we aren't doing anything wrong).

Freedom takes a courage this country no longer possesses. When a small measure of safety became more important than civil liberties, America ceased to exist.

The same is said about the Patriot Act and now many of our basic civil rights are gone.

SO WHAT? If you're not doing anything illegal, you've got nothing to hide. If it logs your IP, get dial-up. Sure, it might be a hassle, but if you really want your computer to be kept secret from the internet (or if you're a hacker), at least this will mess up SOME of Google's information harvesting. I have also read "Gmail Is Too Creepy", and they also said that Gmail (Google's "hotmail" address) logs each of your messages that were sent to and from your account. Again, if you're not doing anything illegal, it shouldn't affect you. So, this means that we should stop using Google because it can track our search history? SO WHAT?
