Now that's what I call responsiveness

Sure, you could criticize Google for putting some disturbing language in the end-user licence agreement (EULA) for its new browser, Chrome.

But you can't fault their speed of response, or the quality of response: Update to Google Chrome's terms of service.

"We're sorry we overlooked this, but we've fixed it now, and you can read the updated Google Chrome terms of service. If you're into the fine print, here's the revised text of Section 11:
11. Content license from you
11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services.
And that's all. Period. End of section."

Can't find much to complain about there.

Bob.

While I agree with your post that Google's response re copyright was quick and effective, I have another concern. If the US government can access our search records now, will
Google Chrome somehow put the American public (and others) at further risk of invasion of privacy? To be really paranoid, I notice that McCarthy and McCain are even spelled a little alike...
