By now I'm sure you've all heard of Google's April 1st entry into the
soft drink market :-)
http://www.google.com/googlegulp/
But what I find most interesting is their new privacy policy:
Google Gulp and Your Privacy
From time to time, in order to improve Google Gulp's usefulness for our
users, Google Gulp will send packets of data related to your usage of
this product from a wireless transmitter embedded in the base of your
Google Gulp bottle to the GulpPlexT, a heavily guarded, massively
parallel server farm whose location is known only to Eric Schmidt, who
carries its GPS coordinates on a 64-bit-encrypted smart card locked in a
stainless-steel briefcase handcuffed to his right wrist. No personally
identifiable information of any kind related to your consumption of
Google Gulp or any other current or future Google Foods product will
ever be given, sold, bartered, auctioned off, tossed into a late-night
poker pot, or otherwise transferred in any way to any untrustworthy
third party, ever, we swear. See our Privacy Policy.
