Interesting article about a new “feature” of Google desktop that will actually copy text-based files to Google servers so you can search for files from accross different computers.
The security issue is that, since they're stored on Google's servers, any government agency can subpeana (sp?) those files without needing a warrant (or something like that...basically they can't guarantee privacy).
