The greatest concern seems to come with the ability to discuss and search numerous computers with one account. Put simply, you could use a single desktop search account to search, list and enable you to share files between your laptop and desktop for example. But are these problems grounded in fact? Is there a really privacy problem here? I do... There has been lots of talk recently about Google Talk and how there are significant privacy concerns with-the new software. The biggest problem appears to come with the ability to discuss and search multiple computers with one account. Quite simply, you might use an individual desktop search account to search, index and enable you to share files between your desktop and notebook like. But are these concerns grounded in reality? Can there be a really privacy problem here? I downloaded and installed the newest Desk-top Search beta the other day. It's some interesting new features including the capability to remove panels in the sidebar and dock them anywhere you want in your desktop. And there are lots of more systems offered to let you do such a thing from control what is indexed, to passing time by playing games. One of the features is its capability to reach beyond the desk-top it is onto execute a variety of things. Navigating To site preview likely provides suggestions you could give to your dad. Now, I can play tic tac toe with co-workers, if not friends all over the world. But the largest, and most painful update to some is the ability to remotely index files, in addition to discuss them using Google servers to temporarily store the things. By turning this feature on you give the best to Google to store your documents for approximately thirty days. Therein lies the core of the problem there appears to be no way around this thirty day need. All I have to mention is 'just what exactly'? So imagine if you have to give this ability to Google? Google can encrypt the information in order that no one else can get access to it. And even if there's some kind of DOJ subpoena needing access to these files I do not think it'd operate in court. It is because Google has put up a network when your entire Google actions are linked with one Google account. Your personalized webpage, gmail, google stats, adwords and ad-sense records all share the same Google account. Consequently, it'd be hard for anybody to get a subpoena to examine information regarding only a part of that account. Legalities apart, should you be that concerned with the privacy being surrendered to Google in order to make use of this process then don't join it. You can still acquire and use the new Desktop Search with the majority of its new capabilities, but you do not have to use the file sharing. But what if you need to share files between computers? Well, do what I did so head to your chosen electronics shop and purchase a thumb drive. I recently bought a USB thumb drive with over 2 gigs of storage for less than $100. Now I can simply move anything between any computer without worry of some government agency wanting to know what's on it. As I explained, I do have the newest Google Desktop fitted, and I did go through the controls for the search and file sharing, but I didn't turn them on. I have no need in order to find my desktop 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 only use the FTP site I have set up on the computer at home or even the aforementioned flash drive. Actually, in regards to all the alternative methods that Google reflects your own personal information, from search history to Gmail, must we be all that concerned that some records might become stored on a Google host anywhere? I think we ought to have other problems. For instance, I think we should be concerned about what Google already knows about us via those ser-vices I mentioned early in the day. I believe business people ought to be concerned that such a company would allow employees to simply steal and transfer information to and from work. I do believe if you are 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. The truth is I do not think you need to have any Internet reports because quite honestly many people are a goal for your DOJ. More, I can almost guarantee you that the local ISP will fold and pay the information easier than Google will. So before you start complaining about how Google can infringe your privacy, understand that YOU'VE the ability to stop it from happening. It's only a matter-of choosing to take action..
