Oh hey, Google+ is shutting down after it was shown to be exactly the privacy and accountability tar pit I was concerned about. And oh cool, people that provided their “real name” and real info had their data scraped by parties unknown, too.
I totally did not see that coming at all. </s>
(As a reminder, I work for a Google competitor, so opinions my own. None of these observations are based on privileged info.)

@mawr This perfectly articulates why business people scare me. Until we are more than numbers to toy with without accountability, this is going to continue to happen.
Also, I contest that it’s even true for money at a bank, given the creative accounting and surge in white collar crime in the naughts that we still haven’t recovered from.
