How to Prepare for Google's Privacy Changes

(CNN) -- On Thursday, Google's much-discussed new privacy policy goes into
effect.
.
To say that the change has stirred concern on the Web would be an
understatement. Public officials and Web watchdogs in the United States
and elsewhere have expressed fears that it will mean less privacy for
users of the Web giant's multitude of products, from search to Gmail to
YouTube to Google Maps to smartphones powered by the Android operating
system.
.
Google points out that the products won't be collecting any more data
about users than they were before. And, in fairness, the company has gone
out of its way to prominently announce the product across all of its
platforms for weeks.
.
The major change is that, instead of profiling users separately on each of
its sites and products, Google will now pull all of that information
together into one single profile, similar to what's found on Google's
dashboard page.
.
The result encapsulates perhaps the most basic conundrum of the modern
Web. More information means better service (and potentially, more targeted
advertisements). But that service (in this case more accurate search
results, more interesting ads and new features that work across multiple
sites) requires you to give up some of your privacy in return.
.
Federal Trade Commission Chairman Jon Leibowitz has called it "a somewhat
brutal choice."
.
Google, not surprisingly, takes a different tack: The payoff for the
company collecting your data is cool new services. For example, they could
push cooking videos to you on YouTube if you'd been looking for recipes
through Google search, privacy director Alma Whitten wrote in an editorial
for the Sacramento Bee.
