Why would the phone companies give google information about their clients locations?
Do you really think google owns all cell phone companies?

Nope,

It’s not like we think about this every minute of every day, but it *is* something to think about every once in a while. The fact that anyone can learn all this info for $50 and an hour of time doesn’t change anything.

It might not be in the best interest of many people (who might not know anything about anyone finding info on them), however wide spread the info is. In other words, just because something is out there doesn’t mean it’s a good thing.

Sure, I’ll relax. But succumbing to the current state of privacy isn’t necessarily the answer in the long term…

@Nope: People who use Gmail understand that the service is paid for by targeted advertising. But I don’t think most of them realize how far it can go. I still use Gmail and many other Google services. The point of the article is not to make you scared. It’s to make you think. I guess you missed the point.

For 50$ and about an hour time, anyone could learn more about you than just your address phone, workplace, etc…You worry to much.

Relax.

With all this information, Google sure seems to get criticized for its inability to do much against click fraud. Oh, the irony.
