So call it what it is, the prevalence of American culture. Not some kind of new world Fascist order or any other the other nonsense you're trying to paint this as. Notice how the only people being harmed in this situation are the guys involved with the wikileaks nonsense, who really brought it on their own head.

Think about it for a minute. Regardless of how you or I feel about the whole wikileaks debacle, are you really surprised that there are people out there trying to pull his information?

Really, this entire thread boils down to your points 1 and 2. "We're Europeans, so our way of life is different from those in America, therefore their way of life is wrong and ours is right".


I think the beef about Google storing their European information on American servers is legitimate, as their laws are different.

However, while I understand the concern, everyone here has to realize that people are putting their information, and allowing these account links on their own accord.

Europe has these laws because the EU is a nanny-"supra-national" state, that feels the need to hold people's hands.In the US, if an individual chooses to not read the Terms of Service, chooses to forfeit their privacy, and chooses to ignore any associated privacy concerns, that's entirely of their own choosing.

The only game where everyone competes to be an e-janitor.
