Officially removing myself from Google...

[jdog]

I do care about security, but I also realize that everyone is collecting information about you.

True but I would rather give it to the lesser of the monopolistic evils that doesn't concentrate purely on information hoarding. ;)

The way I see it everyone in the future of information science can hack all our shit anyways, even the time/space carrier signals. I meanb we can track radio waves of past events and model them. so they are prolly all laughing their asses at us anyways, everytime we enter a password.

That's what I say...Google blows big huge chunks, and I've always been weary of them and their practices...And to be honest, while I don't think I'll go as far as to say that I'll be removing myself from their services, I am enjoying what Microsoft is doing more and more...Use my gmail for mostly trash stuff, use my hotmail for my main deal...

Google Office Raided by Korea Police in Probe of Street View

South Korean police raided Google Inc.’s Seoul office as part of an investigation into possible breaches of privacy laws resulting from the company’s collection of data for its Street View mapping service.

Law-enforcement officials confiscated materials from Google in a raid today and will ask the company to surrender all data that may have been collected illegally from late last year until May, the Korean National Police Agency said in a statement. Google said it will cooperate with the investigation.

The Korean authorities follow investigations in Europe and the U.S. over Google’s data collection. The probes began after the company said in May that it had mistakenly gathered wireless Internet data while photographing residential streets worldwide.

“We will cooperate with the investigation and answer any questions they have,” Google said in an e-mail.

...Use my gmail for mostly trash stuff, use my hotmail for my main deal...

Serious? Is Hotmail really better than GMail? I honestly thought it would be the other way around. I stopped using Hotmail for my "main deal" circa 2005 when GMail was invented. I use Hotmail for trash stuff now.
The huge reason I love GMail is because of if you have it open, you do not have to refresh the page in order to see a new e-mail message. You have to refresh the page to see a new e-mail message though if you are using Hotmail.
