I got as far as the second paragraph, which consists of the following quote from a Google VP:
That’s somehow worse than I imagined. I can at least understand being intentionally sinister, or overtly anti-privacy, but that level of delusion is somehow actually more terrifying.
I know we’re all thinking it, but people paying attention feel that way because… it’s creepy, it’s not useful, it’s not something they initiated, and they don’t get a clear benefit from it.
I can imagine those guys arguing about “legitimate interests” because data that isn’t monetised is worthless or something.
This is the company that couldn’t understand why Google Glass failed so hard.
