A court ruled that Google must divulge viewing habits of every user that has ever watched anything on Youtube. from bbc.

It must be the American in me that is so horrified by this idea. It's not like anything besides porn and pirated movies will be unearthed. Still we value our privacy and freedom to do what we will without ownership or culpability so much that it seems "unethical" for the court to rule this way.

I was just thinking the other day how the government isn't the Big Brother that we feared, it's us, the people. The cover of anonymity will be the downfall of privacy.
