I do think that Google Latitude (www.google.co.uk/latitude) shows the dark side of all this tech stuff. Personally, I love digital entertainment and gadgets but the thing that spoils it for me is the ability to abuse it for spying and theft. Google Latitude uses mobile phones and similar devices to be tracked and allows others to see "where their friends are". Oh yes - imagine that! Just imagine authorities being able to log in to Google and see exactly where you are, any time of day or night. Once again Google is building the tools that allows our privacy to be exploited, quite possibly, as far as it can be. I mean what is next? A permanent live link to YouTube broadcasting our every word and every action? Google always pushes these things way too far, like they did with the street views.
