The flagrant disregard for what it is alleged to have occurred is breath<br>
taking. Based upon reports (which are yet to be substantiated) there<br>
has been a systematic and intentional approach to intercepting<br>
telecommunications services and misappropriate data that was in the most<br>
part meant to be a private transmission between the user and their home<br>
DSL wireless gateway.<br></blockquote><br>There's two very distinct elements here, and I think it's worth you clarifying which of the two you are referring to, as it impacts the majority of the comments make in your email.<br>
<br>Are you referring to Google's "intentional" (by their admission) capturing of SSID and MAC address details from Wifi networks as they drove past.<br><br>Or are you referring to their "non-intentional" (by their admission) capturing of user data from those networks?<br>
<br>From all accounts both occurred, but to treat them as a single item - especially when referring to intent - makes the presumption that even someone like Google can't be human occasionally and make a mistake.<br><br>
