The greatest problem appears to come with the ability to search and reveal multiple computers with one account. Quite simply, you can use one desktop search account to search, list and allow you to share files between your notebook and desktop for example. But are these issues grounded in reality? Is there really a privacy issue here? I do... There's been lots of talk recently about Google Talk and how there are significant privacy concerns with the new software. The greatest concern appears to come with the ability to search and share multiple computers with one account. Put simply, you could use just one desktop search account to search, list and enable you to share files between your notebook and desktop like. But are these problems grounded in fact? Is there a truly privacy problem here? I downloaded and installed the brand new Desk-top Search beta the other day. It's some interesting new features such as the power to eliminate systems in the sidebar and dock them anywhere you like in your desktop. And there are several more cells available to enable you to do something from control what is listed, to passing time by winning contests. One of the best features is its ability to reach beyond the desk-top it is on to execute a variety of things. Now, I can play tic tac toe with co-workers, and on occasion even friends around the world. But the most painful, and greatest upgrade to some is the ability to remotely index files, as well as share them using Google hosts to temporarily store those items. By turning this feature on you give the proper to Google to store your files for 30-days. Therein lies the heart of the matter there appears to be no way around this 30 day necessity. All I have to mention is 'what exactly'? So what if you've to offer Google this capacity? Google will ensure the information in order that no one else can access it. And even when there's some type of DOJ subpoena needing use of these documents I don't think it'd remain true in court. It is because Google has setup a community when all of your Google actions are associated with one Google account. Your personalized home page, gmail, google adwords, analytics and adsense records all share exactly the same Google account. Thus, it would be difficult for anyone to get a subpoena to examine information pertaining to only part of that account. Legalities away, should you be that concerned about the privacy being surrendered to Google as a way to use this process then don't subscribe to it. You can still acquire and use the new Desktop Search with the majority of its new features, but you don't have to use the file-sharing. In case people wish to identify further on site preview, we know about many on-line databases people can investigate. But imagine if you want to share files between computers? Well, do what I did head to your chosen electronics store and purchase a flash drive. I recently bought a USB thumb drive with over 2 gigs of storage at under 100. Now I can very quickly transfer anything between any computer without fear of some government agency wanting to know what is about it. As I said, I do have the brand new Google Desk-top mounted, and I did consider the options for the search and file-sharing, but I did not turn them on. I've no need to help you to look my family computer from work and vice-versa, nor do I need to share with you files between your two computers. And if I did, I'll just use the FTP site I've put in place on a computer at home or the aforementioned thumb drive. Actually, as it pertains to all the alternative methods that Google captures your personal data, from search history to Gmail, should we be all that concerned that some records might turn out to be located on a Google machine somewhere? I think we ought to have other problems. For instance, I think we ought to be anxious about what Google already knows about us via these companies I mentioned early in the day. I believe business owners should be concerned that this kind of company will allow employees to simply take and transfer information to and from work. I do believe if you're that scared of-the US government infringing on your privacy then you shouldn't have a account, nor Google Desktop Search nor a Gmail account. In fact I don't think you need to have any Internet records because quite honestly many people are a goal for the DOJ. More, I can almost guarantee you that the local ISP will collapse and hand over the information much simpler than Google will. So before you start worrying about how Google could infringe your privacy, remember that YOU have the capacity to stop it from happening. It is only a matter of choosing to do this..
