I use gmail. I don't care if google tracks my every move, it's just much better than yahoo mail and hotmail imho.

OP: have you considered adding a poll?

I would rather wear a tin foil hat that says "i'm a conspiracy theorist freak - ask me about how the CIA is tracking my every move" every day for the rest of my life than use Gmail.

It's not that i'm worried about my privacy, it's that giving up even the slightest right to privacy for nothing more in return than a product that's easy to use is a very slippery slope.

I don't trade rights for convenience no matter how much sense it makes - especially given the direction in which society is headed.

Example: today we consider fetal diagnostics perfectly normal (i do too). Tomorrow (in ~100 years) genetic sequencing of possible mates is quite likely to be common day practice. Now, you'd be mad to think information detailing personal data - search history, browsing history, emails etc. won't be items of extreme value in the near future. In fact - it's highly likely that we'll consider such information vital to our decision when we're electing our president for the coming four years. It will never be part of mainstream media - but tabloids will gobble it up like pictures of Emma Watsons' crotch.

All i'm saying: don't wear tin foil hats, but don't be so quick to think "no one will care about this information anyways" - all information carries a value, in StarCraft, Poker and life.
