    Google fired someone for accessing personal information. Does that not seem like the right move? The move you would want a Big Data Giant to make?

Sure, they handled the problem they created the best way they could while maintaining their business model.

    And yes, they comply with government requests for information about 70% of the time. And as the number of requests rise they comply with a smaller and smaller percentage of them.

And you think saying 'no' 30% of the time makes them tracking you nothing to worry about?
