All of my browsing is tracked by Google? You do understand that Browsing and Searching are not the same things...right?
Google has a service called Web History that tracks your web browsing even across different computers if you have a Google account and opt-in to this service. You can disable it of course but most people usually don't even know it is enabled in the first place.
Xena said without qualification that Google is tracking your browsing, not that they are tracking it if all three of these conditions are met (1) You have google toolbar installed (2) You are logged into Google and (3) You have opted in to this service. Big difference. Of course its much more exciting to say hyperbole like "All your browsing is tracked by google" then to actually discuss the facts.
The main concern is not who said what but how do we really ensure our online security?

'Google, Mozilla detail new privacy features' by Hayley Tsukayama "Google and Mozilla announced that they will have new privacy features in their browsers that allow users to exert more control over how their information is used by advertisers. After the Federal Trade Commission recommended that a do-not-track feature be implemented in all browsers, Internet Explorer announced that IE9 would have that option." http://voices.washingtonpost.com/posttech/2011/01/google_mozilla_detail_new_priv.html
yes, I noticed it ages ago when i was looking on Ebay for a digital camcorder, and from then on every youtube video I wathced had ads for digital cameras running down the side of the screen. Mildly worrying that everything you do online is being tracked, but I can still sleeop at night.
