Google Alarm - Firefox용 애드온, 구글 서버가 수집하는 개인정보에 대한 경고표시

Google Alarm alert 이라는 Firefox용 브라우저 플러그인에 대한 기사입니다.

나의 개인 정보를 Google 서버로 보낼 때마다 소리와 이미지로  알려주는 플러그인이 나왔습니다.

이 플러그인에 의하면, 구글이 버그 트래킹의 이유 등으로 너무 많은 정보를 수집하고 있다고 하는데요.

Google 사이트내의 거의 모든 사이트들에 대해서 수집은 물론, Google Analytics, Google AdSense, YouTube embeds, API calls이 사용되고 있는 곳에서 수집이 진행된다고 합니다.

Google is collecting a lot of data about how we use the web. The new Google Alarm Firefox addon visually & audibly alerts you whenever your personal information is being sent to Google servers. Click here to install:
