- Google is consolidating its 80+ privacy policies into a single policy that will automatically share personal information between Google products, raising privacy concerns from state attorneys general and European regulators. - Critics argue the new policy invades consumer privacy and is difficult for Android users to avoid, while supporters say it allows for a simpler user experience by connecting Google services. - In response to the backlash, Google says users can still opt-out of data sharing and control their privacy settings, but deleting their Google account is the only way to fully remove their data from Google's systems.

2012 2 2 mindshare digital po v new google privacy policy
Google recently simplified and merged its privacy policies across all products into a single policy. This allows Google to track users across different services and share data for targeted advertising. While Google claims this provides a better user experience, competitors argue it prioritizes Google's interests over user privacy. The new policy benefits advertisers through more integrated targeting using user data and histories from Google services like Search, YouTube, and Google+. However, it may raise concerns about how extensively Google will track and use personal information.

The Article 29 Working Party, an advisory body made up of European data protection regulators, investigated changes to Google's privacy policy implemented in March 2012. The investigation found that Google's new policy provided insufficient information to users about what data is collected and how it is used. It also allowed broad combination of user data across Google services without appropriate controls. The Working Party makes recommendations for Google to improve transparency around its data practices and give users more control over the combination of their data. Google is asked to respond with plans to update its privacy policy and practices.

Online policy primer google - al black
This document discusses Google's terms of service and privacy policy. It provides an overview of what users agree to when using Google services, including that Google can use their data for advertising purposes. While Google says it needs to collect user information to improve services, others argue it collects too much private information. The document also notes some cases where Google has defended users' privacy, but also examples where it may not have taken privacy seriously enough, such as using long-lasting cookies.
Google Policy Primer
Google collects extensive data on users' online activities through services like Gmail, Google Search, YouTube, and more. This data includes email content, search histories, videos watched, and other online behaviors. Google uses this data to personalize services for users and enable targeted advertising. While users retain ownership of their content, by agreeing to Google's terms of service users give Google broad rights to use their data. Google collects data through technologies like cookies, IP addresses, and server logs that allow tracking of users' activities and interests over time.

Understanding gdpr compliance gdpr analytics tools
Is there a 100% GDPR compliant analytics tool for website owners? Many website owners still haven't managed to comply with the new GDPR rules. An additional risk for them is using third party analytics tools, that use the visitor data for their own purposes. Find our advice on how to choose an analytics app that complies to GDPR.
Why Google Scares People
Google rolled out new privacy rules that combine data from all Google services into one policy. While Google claims this will provide a more seamless experience for users, others find it unnerving that Google will connect data like search histories and YouTube viewing habits. However, many people already freely share personal information on social media. And most users likely don't care if Google collates information it already has on them, and may even welcome services tailored to their interests through tracking.

Google+: The Terms and Conditions Explained
Google+ users must agree to Google's terms of service to use the social network. While users own the information they post, Google has a non-exclusive license to use that information on any of its services in whatever form. This means Google could potentially use a user's photos to promote Google+ or other Google services. Users also cannot use pseudonyms and Google can terminate a user's account if they breach the terms of service. Even after closing an account, Google maintains the right to use a user's information indefinitely.
GDPR - Australian perspective - the challenge, the opportunity and your duty
The document discusses GDPR and the process for complying with an individual's "right to be forgotten". It notes that GDPR requires explicit consent for data collection and use. It then outlines the steps an organization would take to remove an individual's data from Google Analytics upon their request, including obtaining the individual's client ID and using Google Analytics and BigQuery APIs. However, it warns that fully removing an individual's data across all devices and browsers can be difficult due to limitations in linking cookies and IDs to specific individuals. Preparation, knowledge of the domain, and tested processes are advised to comply with GDPR requests.

Case Study: Google 2012
My final paper for my MBA Capstone class, based on "Google's Strategy in 2012" by John E. Gamble. Includes a SWOT analysis and suggestions on how Google can move forward.
Google Policy Primer 2013
This document summarizes Google's new terms of service and privacy policy which take effect on November 11, 2013. It outlines three key changes: 1) A user's profile name and photo may appear in reviews and advertising; 2) A reminder to use mobile devices safely; and 3) Details on keeping passwords confidential. The document also examines what personal information Google collects from users and how it is used, such as to tailor search results, ads and improve services. However, some argue that scanning emails without permission to target ads may violate privacy laws.
Hunt powerpt
Google faced a class action lawsuit over privacy issues with their social networking application Buzz, which automatically enrolled Gmail users without consent. Buzz publicly exposed users' email contact lists. Google settled for $8.5 million, with funds going to promote internet privacy education. Though Google made technical changes to address privacy settings, the issues around privacy, personal information sharing, and technology are ongoing and complex with no simple solutions.
Complaint
This document is a complaint filed by the United States and 11 states against Google LLC alleging antitrust violations. It claims that Google has unlawfully maintained monopolies in general search services, search advertising, and general search text advertising through anticompetitive practices such as exclusionary agreements with device manufacturers, browsers, and wireless carriers that make Google the preset default search engine on devices and browsers. This locks up the distribution channels and blocks rivals, giving Google a search monopoly responsible for around 90% of general search engine queries in the US. The complaint argues these practices violate antitrust law and deny rivals the scale needed to compete effectively in these markets unless remedied by the court.

Cyber Report: A New Year with New Laws
This document summarizes new privacy and employment laws taking effect in California and Nevada in 2020. Key points include:
- California's Consumer Privacy Act goes into effect January 1st but enforcement is delayed until July 1st. It applies to businesses with over $25 million in revenue or that buy/sell personal data of 50,000+ people.
- Nevada requires websites that sell consumer data to Nevada residents to offer an opt-out mechanism.
- California passed laws tightening independent contractor definitions, prohibiting forced arbitration, and requiring data brokers to register with the state.
- The document provides a checklist for legal compliance tasks businesses should complete in the new year.
Cal AB 5 - CHAPTER 296
This document summarizes Assembly Bill No. 5, which was approved by the Governor of California on September 18, 2019. The bill seeks to codify the California Supreme Court's 2018 Dynamex decision establishing the "ABC test" for classifying workers as employees or independent contractors. It would apply the ABC test to the Labor Code, Unemployment Insurance Code, and wage orders to presume that workers are employees unless the hiring entity can demonstrate that the worker satisfies parts A, B and C of the ABC test. The bill also exempts certain occupations from the ABC test and instead applies the Borello standard.
FTC's Influencer Guide
This document provides guidance for social media influencers on disclosing sponsorship relationships when endorsing or recommending products. It advises that influencers must clearly disclose any financial, employment, or personal relationships they have with brands. Disclosures should be prominently placed in endorsement posts or videos so viewers will notice them. Simple language like "Thanks to [Brand] for the free product" is sufficient as long as it is displayed conspicuously. The goal is to help keep influencer recommendations honest and allow people to properly evaluate endorsement messages.

Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation Parameters
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
