I rarely spend more than 10 minutes reading an article on the web, but New York Magazine’s article - Kids, the Internet, and the End of Privacy: The Greatest Generation Gap Since Rock and Roll - was well worth the 8 pages and 20 minutes. The crux of the piece centers on how the desire for celebrity has eclipsed the issue of privacy in my generation and those behind me:

… Younger people, one could point out, are the only ones for whom it seems to have sunk in that the idea of a truly private life is already an illusion. Every street in New York has a surveillance camera. Each time you swipe your debit card at Duane Reade or use your MetroCard, that transaction is tracked. Your employer owns your e-mails.

Will Ask.com’s Privacy Policy Give It An Edge Over Google?Writing by Nick on Sunday, 22 of July , 2007 at 11:23 am

(Source) Ask.com announced Friday that it will allow search users to control how and whether their searches are recorded, marking the first time a major search company has modified their data retention policy to make it user controllable.

This will prove to be a good move for Ask. In this day and age of snoop-and- let-snoop, privacy advocates will welcome a search engines who doesn’t spy on their behavior. As long as governments allow such privacy I think you’ll see Ask.com’s user base grow. You may even see Google’s shrink a little. If Ask can prove that it returns more accurate results than Google then you’ll likely see the fourth largest search engine take a little search share away from Google. But it will be a long time before Google is toppled of its hill. Nevertheless, this is a good start. Isn’t it?
