Great piece. Thanks also for your ability to maintain focus on the broader issue and not make it an attack on Peter Fleischer. The privacy issue is so much greater than whether or not users decide to opt in to personalization, and it doesn’t go away if personalization goes away. In fact, if you’ve already turned over all of your personal data to Google, you should at least get some personalized benefits from it!

Your words sparked a post on my blog today. Keep up the good work.

All the best,
