After spending 40 years as a government employee I learned to live with my stuff being an open public book.

Until you are ready to grant federal employees some privacy rights, there's nothing in this concern for me.

I have yet to understand what they can collect from simple Google searches if I don’t have any Google company accounts.

I have 16 yahoo mail accounts and 10 google accounts. When I search I never log in. Firefox removes my cookies and history and I use several erasers..including the age old delete %temp%. My ISP # is a central AT&T server. I’m not afraid of Google...

good luck getting google out of your life. google is tracking every page view you make on just about any website you are on including the free republic. just right-click in your browser, choose view source, then search for ‘google’.

I think the concern is very warranted. Here is something else that raises further alarms on Google's behavior.

Do not Track Plus (http://www.abine.com/faqs.php) which I found out about right here on FR a while ago, seems to be working very well.

Nothing you can do at this web site will have any effect on google’s collection of your search data. All you can change is whether you and your ‘friends’ can see it.

Google will still collect it, and sell it.

Should we also remove ‘facebook’? And if so, how can we do that?
