Google's New Privacy Policy

Some differences with Google’s new privacy policy include getting rid of 60 different policies and replacing them with one that’s a lot shorter and easier to read. With the new policy it will take things that you have recently searched and put advertisements up based on those searches.  Also after March 1 any products by Google that you’re linked to your real name could appear.
Phil Simon from the Huffington Post says that Google new privacy policy will not be that big of a deal. He says that most business uses customer’s personal information to make their products better and more efficient. The article also mentions the ads and how they will match you recent searches and he says if you don’t want the ads then just don’t click on them.
I don’t agree with the article. I believe that Google’s new privacy policy will be a big deal and that it will be an invasion of people’s privacy. I think that the old privacy policy was fine and that they should just stick with that instead of trying to make it “better” and screwing everything Google has done up.
