Googling Eric Schmidt Permanent link to this item in the archive.

The Sunday NY Times has an article about the CNET / Google dustup. It occurs to me that as we think about privacy and the internet -- nothing could be more important than Googling Eric Schmidt. I would contend that every publicly available piece of information about Eric Schmidt should be aggregated and posted. Mr. Schmidt is in a position to affect the future of the internet and privacy. I think the CEOs of financial institutions should also be googled and exposed. It's only when these folks see what's available today will they begin to think about the issue of privacy. I'm not talking about censorship, but the right to privacy. Google is used to invade privacy. Google's CEO should be made aware of the power of his company's service.

The crushing of dissent is evil. Google has made very revealing mistake. What's needed is more public debate and thought on the topic of privacy and the internet. Is Google saying, "Google anyone you like, but don't Google us."
