I tried Google's new Chrome browser and it worked quite well except for a few glitches. I went in to talk to our programming staff about it and they pointed out that it collects your personal information. Unbelievable! Think about the level of invasiveness that is involved in your browser collecting personal information.
There are many things wrong with this. First, it is unlikely that the folks at Google developed Chrome without looking at the public domain browser software. So that means that a lot of the IP is based on publicly donated work and effort. Second, this violates a basic trust issue that you have with this class of software. Imagine if Microsoft made Word collect your personal information. It (Microsoft) could then sell the information it gets to the highest bidder. For example, it could look at what you are doing and determine who would pay to get some salacious details. Or, if it were important formulae, it could sell it to your competition.
There has to be a boundary where this stops. I cannot afford this level of Corporate Spying. Can you?
agree with that. Google already correct those issues from way back 2 years ago.
