Re: Ako ste do sada sumnjali u Google namere....Google je i te kako znao da je ono sto rade nelegalno zato sto su uklonili hard diskove prilikom inspekcije nemackih vlasti.
To stavlja tacku na pricu o tome kako su oni tose i eliminise potrebu za glupim poredjenjima sa komsinicama i kafama. Zbog toga su brze-bolje angazovali PR masineriju za damage control.

Citat:
But in Germany, Google’s collection of the data — which the company said could include the Web sites viewed by individuals or the content of their e-mail — is a violation of privacy law, said Ilse Aigner, the German minister for food, agriculture and consumer protection. In a statement Saturday, her ministry demanded a full accounting.
“Based on the information we have before us, it appears that Google has illegally tapped into private networks in violation of German law,” Ms. Aigner said. “This is alarming and further evidence that privacy law is a foreign concept to Google.”
Johannes Caspar, the data protection supervisor for Hamburg, who is leading the German government’s dealings with Google on the issue, said the company’s revelation of illegal data collection would be taken up by a panel of European national data protection chiefs that advises the European Commission.
“This is a data scandal of a much larger magnitude,” Mr. Caspar said. “We are talking here about the large-scale collection of private data on individuals.”
He declined to speculate what action European officials might take.
Mr. Caspar said he had inspected one of Google’s Street View recording vehicles at the company’s invitation this month and had noticed that the recording device’s hard drive had been removed. When he asked to view the drive, he said he was told he couldn’t read the information anyway because it was encoded. He said he pressed Google to disclose what type of information was being collected, which prompted the company to examine the storage unit.
Prema tome - dabome.
Pretpostavljam da su hard diskove uklonili zato sto su bas tada morali da idu na servisiranje ;-)
U lazi su kratke noge, kaze izreka.
Hvala bogu, pa je cela stvar eskalirala na EU nivo, i da ce vrlo verovatno ovo proci sa sankcijama. Ocigledno jos nisu svi postali leminzi koji gutaju sve sto im Google korporativna masinerija baci.
