Google and Privacy: Nothing Evil

Good article in USA Today by Alma Whitten, Google's director of privacy for product and engineering--

Google: 'We protect your data' – USATODAY.com: "Our approach is based on security, transparency and control. We protect your data from bad guys, tell you what information we're collecting as clearly as we can, and give you meaningful choices so you can feel comfortable when using Google. We'll keep trying to make this all as simple and intuitive as a search query."

She references Google's policies and tools for users to manage their privacy--here are two of the sites:

There's nothing evil here folks, no matter what some bureaucrat in Washington or the EU believes. Check it out for yourself.
