You're very uninformed. :thumbsdown:
Google is our friend.

Google is your friend, and polietly reads all your mail for you and tracks every website you go to with it's cookies.

Although the poster called it spyware some may not call it that but there is no debate that google DOES track information, a LOT of information and puts it into nice big databases.

It scans your e-mail for specific words which it uses for text ads. Big deal. I don't keep important information in my email anyways, and if I do, it's more or less encrypted.
