I've seen some press on Google's privacy policies in the past that indicated that they were capturing information about users without there knowledge, etc. Anyway, I wanted to post an email I received from them this morning that perhaps shows a different policy on user privacy. Thanks Google for letting me know I was "broadcasting".
