Gee, isn't Google generous. Can anyone tell me why stuff like this isn't opt-in ONLY by default? Honestly, I shouldn't have to do anything to avoid being a part of crap like this.
Google Inc. is going to let people with home wireless networks decide whether they want to be lumped into a system that helps pinpoint the locations of people on cell phones.
