Google Privacy

First difference, many of their services require you to sign up for a Google Account. When you do, they will ask for personal information, like your name, email address, telephone number or credit card. If you want to take full advantage of the sharing features they’ll offer, they might also ask you to create a publicly visible Google Profile, which may include your name and photo. Second Difference is they may collect and store information locally on your device using mechanisms such as browser web storage and application data caches. Third difference certain services include a unique application number. This number and information about your installation may be sent to Google when you install or uninstall that service or when that service periodically contacts our servers, such as for automatic updates.

            The policy itself has 60 or more policies governing its different services. Now, everything has one policy, so it’s easier to understand and keep track of what you’re agreeing to as a user. Now you don’t need to sign in to use many of their services. To sum up the privacy change essentially indicates that Google will start tracking users’ behavior on all of its different platforms, not just during searches.
            I disagree with the new policy because they are now going to start stalking people to see what they are doing.

Copyright Infringement

-Apple Computer, Inc. vs. Microsoft Corporation-
Microsoft And Apple were involved and it was at the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, it happen in September 19, 1994. The work was Apple had agreed to license certain parts of its GUI to Microsoft for use in Windows 1.0, but when Microsoft made changes in Windows 2.0 adding overlapping windows and other features found in the Macintosh GUI, Apple filed suit. Apple added additional claims to the suit when Microsoft released Windows 3.0. They were found not guilty because the court rejected these arguments because the parts were not original.

Google Reader VS Feed Demon

I personally like google reader more than Feed Demon, because feed demon does not let you add barley anything. You can add google reader to your homepage in iGoogle and then for feed demon you got to download it. For google reader you can add anu website, and for feed demon you can only certain websites. That is why I like google reader better than Feed Demon.
