    Google is facing renewed privacy concerns after it secretly mapped every single wireless internet connection in Britain – including those in millions of homes – to help it sell advertising and other services.

    Resistance is futile?

    OK, I admit this is from the Daily Mail.

    I love this reply from a bloke in Texas:

    "LOL. Given the Orwellian POLICE STATE that you guys seem so comfortable with, why should you care if Google picks up some data?"

    I bet money he lives in a fallout bunker or is a member of a survivalist group & has never been outside of the continental United States LOL!
