Earlier this year Google moved one step forward to achieve their initiative 'Search, Plus Your World' by making one blanket privacy policy across all their services. This policy change decision has been attracting a lot of criticism from rival firms like Microsoft, Facebook and Twitter. Google's search engine competitor Microsoft (Bing) criticized that Google want to sell information to the advertisers by integrating all policies into one blanket policy. Microsoft published ads in newspapers like Wall Street Journal, The NewYork Times in the United States as "Every data point Google collects and connects to you increases how valuable you are to an advertiser". Google denied allegations made by Microsoft saying that none of their privacy policy has been changed and the consolidation of all services would not change the way Google collects and display information at search. According to the Head Of Google's Webspam Matt Cutts, Google want nothing more than to display more relevant information from other social networking sites to the search users, but they havenâEUR(TM)t been able to find any common ground with other companies to continue it.
