CA Senator Plans Bill on Gmail and Privacy

California State Senator Sen. Liz Figueroa (a strong privacy advocate) issued a press release on April 9 in which she quoted from a letter she sent to Google opposing the plan for Gmail to scan user email content to use as a profiling mechanism for advertising.

She stated, “I cannot urge you strongly enough to abandon this misbegotten idea…I believe you are embarking on a disaster of enormous proportions, for yourself, and for all of your customers.”

BeSpacific: “No one better has her finger on the pulse of the legal information world than Sabrina Pacifici, law librarian and author of the blog BeSpacific,” writes blogger Robert Ambrogi. “Launched in 2002, BeSpacific is one of the longest-running legal blogs and, remarkably, Sabrina seems more prolific today than ever. She posts multiple items every day, covering the gamut of law, technology and knowledge discovery and topics ranging from cybersecurity to legal research to government regulation to civil liberties to IP and more. For me, BeSpacific is one of my daily must-reads and has been for 14 years straight.”
