Default Google copies your hard drive...

I posted an article about how Yahoo places "Web Beacons" on your computer to track your internet use - http://www.rense.com/general69/tracking.htm, and now there's this:

http://www.eff.org/news/archives/2006_02.php#004400 - it's the Feb 9th article.

I would imagine that people would be pretty bored reading the documents that I have in my home computer, TM checklists, Quickbooks for the family checking account, letters to Aunt Mary, etc. But what about the people in offices across the country who have sensitive client information on their hard drives? This is kind of disturbing.
