GOOGLE HAS A COPY OF YOUR COMPUTER'S CONTENTS ARCHIVED...

If you have a computer connected to Wi-fi google has made a copy of all the contents on your computer. They have been caught in a big wi-fi data mining operation.

Hope you didn't have anything on there you didn't want anybody to see.

Well it has been widely reported that the right to privacy is history.

They say not if the network was password protected.

Besides, those nekkid pictures would be too scary to use as porn and I don't give a crap about blackmail.

People who don't understand computer technology talking about it make me laugh. All out belly laugh.

DOOD, if you are password protected you dont have anything to worry about with the Google vans.

they are not that interested in other peoples shit.

Not only that, if they or anyone REALLY wanted to get into your shit, it would not be a problem.

Are you going to call me on syntax on ePlaya? You realize this is the internet? Right? The fact I bothered to spell in the same language the whole way through and use punctuation should leave you squirming in your pants with joy. Personally I get hot and bothered when someone who text messages me uses complete sentences. These modern times we live in.

But seriously folks... If Google wanted your data it would simply take it and you'd never know about it. Thankfully they don't give a rats ass about your collection of porn videos or pirated MP3s.

You might want to take a look at your own structure and syntax there. "People, makes me vibrate?"

Not to sound self centered or anything but I think he's mocking me.

I took liberties with the English language he didn't approve of.

I think? I corrected my typo seconds after making it yet he still saw the original posting over an hour later. I think there is a glitch in ePlaya.

As far as I know, what they were doing was looking for open access points so they could map various hotspots so if someone needed a place to connect and were in a city or part of town strange to them, they could look on the map and find an open access point near them.

Trouble is, a lot of these access points are in people's homes and they have not bothered to secure them. They don't have an archive of your computer but they probably have a (very) brief snapshot of any open traffic that happened to be emitted from your wireless access point at the moment the car was within range.

It is sort of like having all your windows open and shouting all day, then chastising someone walking up the sidewalk for overhearing.

Google does a LOT more nefarious stuff than this, jeez.

Ever wonder why if you go to a few car manufacturer sites you start seeing car ads every time you visit a website with google ads?

I did a google search the other day for scsi disk drives and now I see the same scsi disk ad no matter what site I go to and probably will for another week or so.

Google does basically exactly what Gator/Claria was so hated for doing. It is called "behavioral marketing". And it works.

Doesn't work because when they went to flash motion ads, they pissed me off and I went to adblockplus, and the machine gained speed back.
Also if you do enough searches, you can break their modeling software.

Also had adbegone recommended.

j_cavera · Post by **j_cavera** » Tue May 18, 2010 8:40 am

Now you got me thinking... I'm going to start searching for some really strange stuff just to see what ads I get back.

clothing for transvestite mongooses (mongeese?)
how to deflate a bananna
spring-loaded bookshelves

On second thought, I'd probably get the FBI after me.

Okay, so the list goes on. The only difference is that Google is organized and centralized.

You work in a technical field while the majority of people do not. Do I really need to say more?

I posted that clip on Facebook this evening and got one heck of a response. People don't know and when they find out they genuinely freak out.
