posted:Critics have hit out at Google's decision to merge personal data from YouTube, Gmail, search, social network Google+ and dozens of other services.


Forthcoming changes to privacy settings will see data shared across all these platforms. Users cannot opt out of the changes.


Google said the update would offer more relevant searches.


But critics say it has more to do with the data battle the search giant is waging with rival Facebook.


The changes take effect from 1 March



Who didn't see this coming? Really?

I'm only surprised that they don't do this already.

Or, that they haven't admitted they do this already.
