"If you want privacy, you must be a child molester or a terrist." Obvious troll is obvious.

On a more serious note, "everyone does that" makes it okay? Really?

Obvious reading comprehention failure is obvious.

DanBC didn't write anything which could imply he believes that "If you want privacy, you must be a child molester or a terrist".

"Try sending an image of child sexual abuse through your gmail account and see what happens." - the implication is clear: "why else would you fear the Big Brother?"

No, the implication is - do that for a practical demonstration that Google does the same thing 'kuschku pointed out Microsoft does.

I presume the purpose of that sentence is to back up the previous one ("Everybody does this").

I think you need to reread DanBCs comment.

His comment is stating what google does and gives a pretty strong example, not justifying what they do.

That's not what I meant. How could I make my comment more clear?

What I meant is that almost all companies will invade privacy to prevent and detect certain crimes. MS does it, but so do Google, Apple, etc etc.

Okay, I apologize for having misread you. Thanks for a level-headed clarification to my angry comment.
