@Mysterius:

Well it's not just me and the website that thinks this. Tons of analysts have that type of suspicion as well. I've seen it from time to time appear on a few credible news sites. "Do you want Google to know about you?" "Google - Big Brother on the web?" and all that.

Of course analysts don't care, they're just in it for the money.

If Google's adSense taps into your computer via Google Desktop, or Firefox, or your Gmail, don't be surprised that it might use that info. beyond for the "sake of ads".

As far as I know, Microsoft isn't doing such a thing that taps into privacy at all.
