Is Google Spying on me
It's not really new news that by installing the Google Toolbar, you give permission for Google to track your every move. However, with privacy advocates taking a closer look at the world's best search engine, it's not surprising that a WebProNews forum user makes this post.
When I browse my site (even into password protected areas) then look at my stats, I notice that Googlebot has "followed me" ! Is this because I have a google toolbar??? How else would googlebot happen to drift exactly where I have just visited? Has any one else experienced this?
Ja think that Google uses this method to follow toolbar users around sites and maybe to index or rank pages???? hmmmmm interesting!

Shoot, you want to know if they're spying on you? Of course they are. Not only on the net, but in everything. Ever seen the enterprise version of Google Earth? You can get so close you can count the numbers on license plates!! Don't go outside, or they will see you....

Yes, Google is spying on you. It depends on what you mean by you. How anonymous do you keep yourself? Google counts clicks. Do you go through a router? Then your home computer's IP may be rather hidden. Do you keep your real human name off the internet (using instead wholly disguised nicknames for ALL your forum/Answers/email purposes and avoiding thou all purchases)? Then those too are hidden... Do you send email through a proxy? Then that too may be hidden... Google's toolbar is somewhat foolable...it can't see through Zorro's mask.
