Privacy
Privacy is front and center again in the wake of AOL's outing of the search queries of a bunch of its users. Clearly that was a bad move although they didn't do it intentionally.
But I am not a fan of privacy (clearly).
I believe privacy gets in the way of discovery and learning.
I don't need AOL or anyone else to out my search query history because I am outing it right now on the right sidebar of this blog.
I think its useful for some of you to know what I am searching on. And I'd like to know what you are searching on too.

I agree. Privacy has become an emotive issue where the perceived risks are exaggerated to the point where discussion of the benefits of giving up a little privacy can be almost pointless. Which is a shame.
