Gmail Takes Heat from Privacy Groups







Gmail Takes Heat from Privacy Groups

Gmail Takes Heat from Privacy Groups 04/09/2004 04:09 PM

Google proves there's no such thing as a free lunch. Gmail, its new, free e-mail service, can store the equivalent of 500,000 pages of e-mail in return for the "collection and use of your personal information."

EFF guide to Gmail privacy


EFF guide to Gmail privacy 04/15/2004 05:02 PM
Donna sez: "EFF provides a quick and dirty technical work-around for protecting your privacy if you want to use Google's beta Gmail service - only a temporary fix, and there's the rub: Google needs to step up and provide a solution that protects its customers' privacy (and the same goes for other businesses than can link email to search data!)."
For current and prospective Gmail users, we suggest that you start by deleting your existing Google cookies before you use Gmail (and before you enter your real name or existing email address in any Google form). This will help prevent your pre-existing search history from becoming associated with your identity in the future. (Note that it will also cause you to lose any Google preferences you have entered, such as language or adult content preferences.)

I have just read a review of Gmail that highlights some of the concern people are having with the privacy of the service. We all know that they are scanning incoming e-mail to be able to target advertisements at you. But the writer is concerned with legal ramifications of being on Gmail and the possibility of Gmail becoming a one stop shopping center for law enforcement. [Technology Review]

In the face of the attacks, especially vociferous in Europe, which has strict privacy regulations, Google has begun to express willingness to be flexible about how it offers the service.

04/14/2004 02:32 PM
In the last week there has been a sustained deluge of criticism over Googles new Gmail system. At issue is the proposed electronic reading of third party email (those that do not subscribe to the service or agree with terms of service). The result has been Google mail being blocked already, proposed legislative action in California, and the greatest sustained outcry against Google ever.

Gmail Takes the Phun Out of Phishing


Gmail Takes the Phun Out of Phishing 04/04/2005 06:33 PM
Google isn’t allowing itself to be put in the same situation as other e-mail providers in regard to phishing attacks. In October of last year, they implemented Yahoo’s DomainKeys e-mail source verification ( a month before Yahoo did, but that’s Google for you). Now they’re using a proprietary engine to tag suspicious messages coming in to Gmail accounts. When a Gmail user opens a suspected phishing message, the software displays a large red dialog box…
