I just wondering if you will get punished by G if you say something bad about G here because G certainly knows every single keystroke you have typed if you use google bar.

I am worried.

The French have an expression:

Bof!

Google has way bigger fish to fry.
Anyway, as long as you never, ever remove your tinfoil hat you should be pretty safe, no worries.

Google dissidents are rarely heard from again.

Google doesn't care about us. ^^; They have no reason to.

"GOOGLE IS STUPID" <- They have no idea that I typed that. They don't care. If they did know, they still wouldn't care.

You'd better watch it Kote. I'm telling Google! Seriously: I think you shouldn't worry. Why do you think they can see anything you type when you have the Google bar installed? Where did you get that information?

Seriously though, I always live under the assumption that it's quite possible anything I view on the Net, type offline or say on the phone could be passing through Big Brother info central. Chalk it up to the too many drugs I did in my youth, but I still think it's a good idea to live 'as-if'...I don't lose sleep over the idea (anymore), I just realize the technology is certainly there in spades, and the political motivation is likely there too (wouldn't put it past 'em).

Such certainly has happened to a far worse degree in past epochs - before technolgy has made it so incredibly easy to do now. Think of the former East German Stasi for example, or Nixon's Watergate hotel.

I know I'm off on bit of a tangent here, but hey, that's what paraboid rants are all about.

:o)

If you truly believe they can watch every keystroke you type because you have the toolbar installed (and that you are important enough for them to "watch") then I would highly suggest removing it LOL.

If the world would find out the Google toolbar has a keystoke logger built in I think it would be a huge blow to the confidence people have in Google. I don't believe a word of it. It would be plain stupid for Google to do that.

>>will get punished by G if you say something bad about G<<

Google has links to your brainwaves and knows what you're thinking, so they know that your question indicates you might have a tendancy to say something bad about them in the future, which means that chances are they've already taken action and punished you in advance for those future thoughts.

So I wouldn't worry much.
