Consumer Watchdog critical to Google usage of personal info!
This activity of google map car collecting Wifi was much worse than
what I ever thought. They are really at it. Still. Despite all criticism.

Google lets you opt out of Wi-Fi mapping

This is extreme. How can this be legal to collect all that personal info?Whenever you see a Google Street View car
snap photos of the street around, it will also rely on
a laser radar in order to obtain the shapes of buildings
correctly in Google Earth, while searching the airwaves
for a couple of key ID numbers on the Wi-Fi networks at
each property – namely, the router’s Media Access Control (MAC)
address and the Service Set Identifier (SSID).
Those who were relaxed in securing their Wi-Fi networks
also ended up with Google picking personal data in the process.
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though
