Privacy International set goes Google on numberas it about the damaging of the privacy of its users. After six months investigation is the interest group till the conclusion come that Google plainly “hostilely” state opposite privacy. The internetgiant is accused there also of to lead a mud campaign against crtical actionvoerders.

In an interim report lays Privacy International out about which Google a bad report earns.,. The organization, that also other webcompanies examined, finds it cannot that Google regular technologies introduces without bill to hold with privacy difficulty.

The PI-report does blow up many matter, not in the least by Google self. That will to the media closed communicate that Privacy International geruggensteund becomes through rival Microsoft. An accusation that the manager of the organization, Simon Davies refutes, in an open letter to Google-CEO Eric Schmidt.
