Last week Google started to to let know beforehand about new Privacy Policy and Google Terms of Service, which will come into effect from March 1, 2012. The staff of information administration of Google propose us to read is quite big, but I've read it and now I'll try to present it in a short way.
Changes that I like: simplified usage of services e.g. if we’re reading an email that reminds us to schedule a family get-together or finding a favorite video that we want to share, Google want to ensure us can move across Gmail, Calendar, Search, YouTube, or whatever our life calls for with ease.
Changes I dislike: Google starts to gather information about us!!! Information about the services that we use and how we use them, hardware model, operating system version, unique device identifiers, and mobile network information including phone number + calling-party number, forwarding numbers, time and date of calls, duration of calls, SMS routing information and types of calls!!! Іnformation about our actual location, like GPS signals sent by a mobile device...+numbers of credit cards if you mentioned them!
Google says that these changes are made to improve interaction, to provide, maintain, protect and improve different Google services, to develop new ones, and to protect Google and its users. Google also says that they use this information to offer us tailored content – like giving us more relevant search results and ads.
New privacy policy as if allows us to merge our information collected from a single service with information from other services. They will treat us as "a user of all their products", which means more simple and intuitive use of services from Google. The company promises not to transfer the received data to third parties, and while not collect information without obtaining the consent of each individual user.
According to critics, the process of "deanonimization" users started long before. Google Privacy Policy steadily shifting toward data sharing by all users of services. Thus, if at first company required the use of real names for social networking Google +, then these names will now appear on every search query that performs user. This fact is especially disturbing because of the lost of privacy which promoted Google before. All information will now be collected for the purposes of the corporation.
Changes I dislike are more numerous. It seems like new KGB version starts working!
P.S. personally I wouldn't like someone listen to my telephone conversations... even if they tell me that it is confident =(
