JC, I'm with you on the email analogy, but the problem that I have is more related to documentation of policies and keeping them updated and ensuring compliance, with what can be considered non-public personal data.

The search industry has less compliance (if any) regulations than say the credit / financial industry. Both the industries have rogue employees... Both the industries use and abuse the data collected.

Like the no-fly list, I'm sure there is going to be some collateral damage here...
