    Google is watching you...

    Gmail. Everyone seems to want one.

    Do you really want all of your emails saved on servers forever?

    Who can look at these? Google has already been shown to not give 2 shits about your privacy. Dunno if I want them holding thousands of my emails even after I'm dead.

    Maybe Ashhahahahaha plans on investing in Google when they go public.

      If you have nothing to hide, then what's the worry?

      Spend you some brain.

          Cause they still shouldn't be able to read your personal messages whenever they feel like for near enough any reason.

                  It's their server and their service. They can do whatever the fuck they want. Don't like it, don't sign up and use it. Isn't that how it works?

                  I could care less if they'rereading what I write to my grandma with my Google account, so long as they're OFF my servers and not reading anything else.

                      I would be worried about all those russian rape sites that spam me all the time. No remove links, totally illegal, and a possible goverment setup to catch these types of surfers.

                      I wouldn't want that crap siting on my home computer or on a webmail.

                                          I could really care less aswell seeing as I haven't sent one single email through gmail. (you've been in my thread, can't even get the login to work, lol)

                                              With the current administration and Google's attitude about privacy one has a reason to be paranoid.

                                                      Gmail only discourages deleting emails, but they give the option.

                                                      If you're worried they might keep the deleted emails, how is Hotmail and Yahoo any different? They can too keep emails if they wanted to.

Most of us are more willing to discuss private matters via regular email but almost every major ISP has email monitoring systems in place. They can do a hell of a lot more than Google.
