Am I wrong?<br /><br />The Buzz incident speaks for itself and kind of contradicts everything Google says through its official PR channels...<br /><br />I'd say privacy issues were most probably weighted... but the focus was on trying to assure as much 'success' as possible on a product launch... We'll deal with those privacy freaks when they come... (This kind of thought comes usually more from Biz people than from lawyers/paralegals in my experience)<br /><br />It's no easy business trying to replicate twitter's business overnight... even if you are Google... 'Poor man's e-mail' is proving very successful... and hard to replicate... seems to me...<br /><br />Anyway, good to see Peter's tone has evolved for the better... Keep it up guys!tfsernahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08092339221675258153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479491108286515994.post-31962057817401078892010-05-07T18:59:13.532-04:002010-05-07T18:59:13.532-04:00"In the spirit of transparency" ... here..."In the spirit of transparency" ... here is the letter that Google is responding to.<br /><br />http://www.priv.gc.ca/media/nr-c/2010/let_100420_e.cfmALGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01617295355587787521noreply@blogger.com
