Google and Its Idiosyncratic Logic
April 8, 2010
“Opinion: Conroy Is Right to Question Google’s Privacy Record” appeared in IT News, an Australian publication. Google is a company with lots of math whizzes. Math requires logic. The article points out that Google is operating in an inconsistent manner. The issue is Google’s compliance with US laws and its posture regarding laws of other counties. For me the key passage was:
Google is thus in a contradictory position to comment on government interference with a citizen’s data. It says, like the government, that it only wants to interfere with a customer’s data in the case of suspected child porn – which sounds straight out of the Minister’s songbook.
Read the article. Make up your mind.
