I don’t usually agree with the European Union. However, it has demanded that Google help to protect the privacy of citizens rather than exposing everything, and I tend to agree. The latest EU ruling doesn’t solve the whole problem, though. In fact, it raises more questions. Remember a few years ago, in the very early days of Google, when we were having the raging debate about how Google was violating privacy? Well, this week’s EU court decision is all about privacy. We have been losing our privacy bit by bit over the last few decades.
Jeff, I'm wondering how you can disagree with the entire European Union! If you meant that you often disagree with their policies on certain matters, then why don't you just say that? Being against an entire country or group of countries is just a little strange, don't you think?
