Google is not to be trusted. Thats the hard truth. From the article:
"Outlets like the New York Times noted that Milner did raise the [privacy] issue with superiors before the code was implemented (managers claim to never have read his reports)".
Right. Nobody at Google knew anything about this engineer collecting data for 3 YEARS? Thats just not reality. Corporations doesnt work that way.
And the fact that Google lies about it shows exactly what they are like.
- rhizome 14y agoIt's extremely interesting (read: troubling) to watch Google transform from a collection of geniuses to a bog-standard corporation under substantially the same management. Perception is everything, sometimes.
