Google admits wi-fi data collection blunder

[~BD~]

Google has admitted that for the past three years it has wrongly
collected information people have sent over unencrypted wi-fi networks.

The issue came to light after German authorities asked to audit the data
the company's Street View cars gathered as they took photos viewed on
Google maps.

Google said during a review it found it had "been mistakenly collecting
samples of payload data from open networks".

The admission will increase concerns about potential privacy breaches.

These snippets could include parts of an email, text or photograph or
even the website someone may be viewing.

In a blogpost Google said as soon as it became aware of the problem it
grounded its Street View cars from collecting wi-fi information and
segregated the data on its network.

Lets us look at your crew:

1.A socialist leach and non producer

2. A self proclaimed web master who runs an infected IE6
on a production machine and is a thief.

3. A crippled bird, wanna be.

4. A self proclaimed illegal drug user.

and then there is you, a Thief, Spammer, Phiser and Liar First Class..

Passed by you last week and you look aweful sick.

Did you catch some gay sickness or did your last operation
go bad?

As for google if you use them you deserve what you get.

I wear the interest in Pot with Pride, thanks. You may stick the "illegal"
aspect squarely straight up your ass, along with your other mental
deficient thoughts, sir. Do you drink sir? Did you know it was illegal for
the same nonsense reasons pot was made illegal? thanks to that stupid move
by the government and ignorant ****s like you, we created (thanks to your
kind, not mine) the mafia; gangsters, the mob..

Keep that in mind next time you critize someone for doing something
"illegal.".

Now we know what fried your brain.

[Bullwinkle]

Do not change the subject.

Illegal drugs is what you self confessed to.

You have no honor or credibility now.

Pretty touchy for someone who is proud of what they do.

Now all know you are a pot head.
