Welcome to 1984, Google!

Faux pas extraordinaire from Google CEO Eric Schmidt:

If you have something that you don’t want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn’t be doing it in the first place.

Not that I’ve trusted Google and it’s supposed “Don’t Be Evil” policy (see my numerous previous blog entries), but this comment is really short-sighted. Unfortunately, most people are blissfully unaware that they are entrusting so much information and power to a single company.

    It is getting even worse… Imagine how bad it will be for the people using Google’s DNS service. They will then have access to track everywhere users go online as well as what they search for on google, email on gmail and write on google docs… Don’t Be Evil indeed
