Google is watching you!

or they will be, No more privacy if you use them for your internet searches.
starting march 1 they will track your internet usage. Make sure to use a proxy server
if you dont want them to know everything you do. That may not even be enough
with them making you agree to terms of usage.

If you think everything you've done up until now hasn't been monitored you're just lying to yourself.

If you live in the fifth stanine of society, you should be virtually invisible to them.
Unless you go around saying stuff like "fifth stanine".
The difference between people who do stuff and people who don't do stuff is that the people who do stuff do stuff.

They are all bad, but Google is the worst. And their compliance and friendly relationship with the Feds and Net Neutrality, censorship and stuff, has made me have as little to do with them as possible for the last couple of years. With this new announcement, I'm even bothered about having a YouTube account now. They will be looking at all the political and gun videos I've saved to my favorites. I might wind up qualifing for indefinte detention or something. Not to mention the people that post them!
