The typical big brother kinda act..

The latest news revolving around the most controversial company and the darling of the media google is quite an interesting one..

Google is facing a law suit from the us justice department on the grounds that it has failed to comply with US govt in providing the details of the browsing habits of million random users.

While yahoo and AOL complied, google refused to citing the privacy rules.

This comes in a stark contrast to various google products like Google earth reportedly violating privacy of users.
Even the latest product of google, the GDrive is in a storm as it reportedly copies contents from users hard disks.
Whoa, who ever will want to use it ?
This rings a bell to the novel Digital fortress by dan brown where there is a huge decoder that cracks every possible email communication .
So next time u send a mail, the recipient might not be only the intended person ..
Oops, Uncle sam is listening!!!
