Should be a choice to the surfer wether they want their emails scanned or not to use the surfer. This is just like the government trying to charge on VoIP, so much bullshit right now

That's retarded. Google isn't forcing anyhahahaha to use it. If you don't like their ads, get a hotmail or yahoo email account.

wtf,,, that is just retarded

I think the main problem that people are seeing with it is that it searches your personal email message. It would suck if google stored that info, and that would be invasion of privacy.

Right US is supposed to be a 'democratic' country...or what.....

Hence the creation of spam filters.

Right, so Google can't have some algorithm place targetted ads in email, but its ok for the FBI to read e-mail without a warrent?

I think the guys from google are smart enough to grasp that as long as they hold US Citizenship, they'll go to jail if they break US Law. Offshore means diddly, off PLANET means diddly.

You guys put wayyyy too much stock in a pat answer that can be gotten around in some cases for some things... but not all things.

Yeah, WTF! And the newest Patriot act isn't invasion of privacy!!!

Right, only the State Dept should be able to read your e-mail.

But it reads e-mail going to and coming from people who don't use gmail. And don't say you can choose to not e-mail anyone using a gmail account, that's just stupid.
