The Public Trust - Facebook Is The Beginning

• zerohedge.com by Tom Luongo

Her phone is scanning her emails and letting her know her when her electric bill is due.

I told her Google likely pushed down an update which she agreed to without realizing it (or getting the opportunity to opt-out of) which authorized them to not only scan her inbox but set up alerts for her.

She was angry about it, and rightfully so.

This is why I don't use any of the Google apps on my Android phone.  Outlook for email, Opera for my browser.  Office for my productivity apps.  It was a conscious choice.  I moved to Android under protest because Microsoft willfully destroyed Windows Phone.

I know it's not much better, but at least Microsoft appreciates my business, now, for the first time in their miserable existence.

And I wasn't willing to shell out $600+ for a comparable iPhone.  Pennywise and pound-foolish, I know, but no one's perfect.
