Google, known as the the king of the jungle when it comes to search engine, Gmail, Chrome, Google play all access in music, not to mention your ability to have instant access to Youtube has created a not so much fun, rather fearful buzz in the news TODAY.
Many are questioning whether the ability to write an e-mail to anyone and I mean anyone, without having exchanged e-mails with that person is actually interfering with your privacy a bit much at this point.
Here's the way it works; if you have your normal Gmail account, no worries, this as of now, remains the same. Nevertheless, having Google+ allows you to send emails to pretty much anyone, as if you're sending an email to a close friend or relative on your list. Here is the concern, you're "automatically" enrolled in Gmail's instant messaging social media circle, with the option of course of refusing to do so. Please do not get nervous, in this case, you may remove yourself from the list.
Several issues have been raised regarding this privacy matter. According to Deseret News, Los Angeles Times expressed privacy advocates weren't too happy with this particular launch back in 2010 when Google launched Google Buzz which apparently made Google's contacts available online publicly.
On another instance, a gentleman in Massachusetts was arrested after sending out a Gmail invite to his ex-girlfriend, who had a restraining order against him, ABC news reported. Thankfully, an expert on Internet privacy, said to ABC News that it's possible the accused Massachusetts man is telling the truth by declaring he was not guilty. Google+ is able to send invitations out to people who aren't on the social media site if you move them from one group to another.
Does this sound appealing? You decide...
