FREMONT, Ohio - Byron Reed took the lead with just four laps to go to capture his second straight 410 sprint feature win at Fremont Speedway Saturday, June 14 on Crown Battery Night.
The Monclova, Ohio driver capped off a great night, having come from the tail to win the Alex Burkett Australian Pursuit for an extra $1,000 payday. Crown Battery and Fremont Speedway made a $2,500 purse for the Pursuit in honor of Burkett, who worked at Crown Battery for over 30 years, and who passed away Tuesday.
In the 30-lap feature for the Fortball Pizza Palace 410 Sprints, Reed moved from third to the lead in just two laps, driving around Rob Chaney and Mike Linder. His victory was the 15th in his career at "The Track That Action Built."
"Got stuck there in the middle part of the race and then I found I could move around in turns three and four and that helped a lot. I was pretty much stuck on the bottom of one and two...that was the key," said Reed in the Engine Pro Victory Lane beside his Reebar Diecasting, JEI Chassis, ProShocks sponsored #5.
Fremont's Matt Merrill only led once...the final five feet, but it was enough to give him his second career Fremont win - by five feet over Brad Haudenschild in the Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprints.
"The car was just awesome on the bottom and I knew on that restart (on lap 22 of the 25-lap feature) if I stayed there I could get under Brad. We really needed this...this is a huge confidence booster," said Merrill in the Engine Pro Victory Lane beside his Kash Kow, Wetzel's Sewer Cleaning backed #39. "On that last turn I just held it to the bottom and mashed on the gas...it didn't do bad considering this is the 50th race on that engine."
Not to be outdone, the Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks put on a whale of a race with four trucks swapping the top four spots lap after lap before Sandusky's Cory Ward drove under Steve Endicott coming to the checkers for his third straight win.Ward never led a lap in the feature, grabbing the lead the last 20 yards to the flag stand.
"During the yellow (on the 19th lap of the 20-lap feature) I saw someone point for Steve (Endicott) to go high and I knew what to do...go to the bottom. That was one heck of a race. People don't realize how good these drivers are in this division. We ran side by side with three other trucks the entire race and we all raced each other clean," said Ward in the Engine Pro Victory Lane beside his Lakeshore Drywall, Eastside Cafe, Blue Chip Machine and Tool, T.J. Hosang Construction backed truck.
Phil Gressman grabbed the early lead in the 410 sprint feature with Mike Linder battling him hard. It was short lived though as Paul Weaver, Caleb Griffith, Mark Keegan and John Ivy got together with Griffith ending up on his side. On the ensuing restart, John Ivy took a nasty tumble in turn two, ending his night.
When the green flew again, Gressman and Linder battled each other hard for the top spot with Rob Chaney holding off Mike Dussel and Reed. The yellow would fly on lap 8 for a Jody Keegan spin and on the restart, Linder would drive high around Gressman for the lead. Linder's advantage would disappear on lap 11 when Lee Jacobs took a bad flip on the front stretch.
Linder would power away on the restart with Gressman, Chaney and Reed putting on a heck of a show for second. Chaney would move into the runner-up spot on lap 15 and would close on Linder who struck lapped traffic by the 18th circuit.With five laps remaining, it was a three-car battle for the lead with Linder holding the high line, Chaney in his tire tracks, and Reed on the bottom. Reed would drive under Linder for the lead exiting turn four on lap 25 and would hold on for the win. Linder would take second with Brock Mayes grabbing third on the last lap, Chaney and Gressman rounding out the top five.
At the drop of the green for the 25-lap 305 sprint feature, Bill Kraylek and Haudenschild would race side by side for the lead with Merrill, Todd Heuerman and Willie Keegan battling hard for third. Haudenschild would power to the outside and take the lead on lap two and built a bit of an advantage. However, Kraylek began closing and moved under Haudenschild on lap 10 when the yellow flew. On the restart, Haudenschild would pull away with Kraylek, Merrill and Heuerman putting on a great battle behind.
By lap 14, Kraylek was again catchin Haudenschild, bringing Merrill along on the bottom of the racey surface. By lap 17, Haudenschild's lead was beginning to vanish as Kraylek now had his hands full with Merrill's charge while Dustin Dinan, Heuerman and a fast-closing Bobby Clark were waging a torrid battle for fourth. Merrill would drive around Kraylek into second on lap 18 and was slowly reeling in Haudenschild while Kraylek was left to battle Dinan and Clark for third. The yellow would fly on lap 22 with the running order Haudenschild, Merrill, Clark, Kraylek, Dinan and Heuerman.
When the green came back out, Haudenschild went right back to his high line, with Merrill utilizing the bottom groove and now Clark trying to get by both in the middle. As the white flag was displayed, Haudenschild and Merrill were side by side with Clark right on their rear bumper. In the final two turns, Haudenschild ran the cushion with Clark in the middle and Merrill on the bottom. It was a drag race to the checkers with Merrill edging Haudenschild, Clark, Kraylek and Dinan.
Dan Henning grabbed the initial lead in the 20-lap truck feature, but he spun, moving him to the tail. Art Ball led the restart over Dave Brewer, Steve Endicott Ward and Andy Maynard. Brewer would drive around Ball intot he lead on lap three, but Ball would continue to race him side by side with Ward right on their rear deck lid and Endicott racing to his outside. Those four would race side by side the next 15 laps until Ball got sideways in turn two and made contact with Endicott and spinning after having regained the lead.
Endicott was now the leader with Brewer, Ward, a closing Bob Dible and Steve Sabo in tow. Ward would move into second on lap 17 and raced under Endicott as they battled door to door while Brewer ran in their tire tracks. A caution just after Endicott took the white flag, setting up a one-lap dash to the checkers.
On the restart, Endicott slipped up the race track allowing Ward to close on the bottom and Brewer within striking distance as they raced down the backstretch. In the final two turns, Endicott again chose the high line, allowing Ward to drive under. The two banged doors coming to the checkers with Ward getting the narrow win. Endicott, Brewer, Dible and Jim McGrath would round out the top five.
Fremont Speedway will be back in action Saturday, June 21 on Burger King Night featuring the Fort Ball Pizza Palace 410 Sprints, Fremont Federal Credit Union 305 Sprints and Fremont Fence Dirt Trucks. Gates open at 4 p.m. with the racing action getting underway at 7 p.m.
The O'Reilly All Star Circuit of Champions invade "The Track That Action Built" for leg #5 of the Ohio Sprint Speedweek on Thursday, June 26 on Budweiser Night. Speedweek - featuring seven straight nights of racing across the Buckeye State - kicks off Sunday, June 22 at Attica Raceway Park.

Geek Chic
With Comic Con 2010 in full swing, we thought it absolutely necessary to sit back and giggle -- excuse us, marvel -- at some of the whackiest cosplay to hit the convention center.
Comic Con never fails to deliver some seriously delicious cosplay. What's cosplay, you ask? Short for "costume play," it essentially means forgoing your dignity to dress up as a sci-fi or comic book character for a day. Some do it for fun. Some do it for art. And some just like to have kinky sci-fi sex. Here, we compiled some of the best and most bizarre cosplay to hit the nerd herd. 1. Holy Space boobs!9. Lady Gaga, is that you?8. This. Is. Sexy!!!7. Why so serious?6. Time for a wax...5. Um, pedophile much, beaver boy?4. Star whores3. Time for some botox2. meesa jar-jar nerd BBQNext: And the winner is...

DescriptionThis route is an alternative to the last pitch of Long John Wall. Get yourself to the start of the last pitch of that route to set yourself up for this one. About ten feet to the right, you'll see an alcove with a small tree. This route takes the wide crack up the right side of the alcove. Even though the crack is quite wide in places, there are spots for regular size gear. There are a couple of pins right before the wide section. They both look dubious and there is better gear nearby. LocationThis route starts about ten feet to the right of the start of the last pitch of Long John Wall. Look for an alcove with a small tree in the left side of the alcove. ProtectionStandard rack to a #4 Camalot.

My wife Cathy and I met in Galveston 28 years ago. We both love the beach, sun, water, and just being in the coastal surroundings. Immediately after getting married in 1985 we purchased our second home in Jamaica Beach (Galveston). As other properties came available, we purchased them in hopes that someday our five kids would all want to have a 2nd house on the island. We built this house in 2004 and designed it to meet the needs of people who come to the beach to relax and have fun. There is no doubt that being able to get away to Galveston whenever we can has strengthen our marriage, because it automatically puts you in a festive mood when you arrive on the island. The best memories of our lives have been here in Galveston.

In what is becoming a trend, the Heat once again Tuesday night played a game you would like to punt into a canal, jump in after it, drag it to the bottom, and put it under a rock like an alligator. Except they won this time, 93-86. Yeah, the Celtics are sucky, but a win is a win, right?
Rappers live the life. But deep down, they want to prove they can ball out on the court. In turn, almost every NBA player fancies himself an MC.

Dwyane Wade scored 29 and LeBron James had 18 Thursday night in a 102-97 Miami Heat win over the Los Angeles Clippers. The game marked the biggest test the Heat have faced so far this season, with many predicting these same two teams will meet in the Finals come June. Miami passed the test.
Miami Heat star Dwyane Wade is no stranger to fashion provocation, but gauging by the reaction from his stroll into Chicago's United Center last night in a tailored Gucci suit that featured ankle-flashing capri pants, you would have assumed he'd shown up in a rainbow Speedo and glittery suspenders. ...

is it…. GPL?
Bray gives an interview with Artima and there are at least a couple of WTF moments in there.
Frank Sommers: Why is the GPL a better choice for Java than Apache, Mozilla or some other open-source license?
Tim Bray: You are never going to get a consensus on that. There was a huge amount of argument on that [issue]. I see IBM issued a statement today, wishing that we had done Apache. You can name many reasons for choosing Apache.
I personally think that the GPL is a better choice, simply because Java has been given away for free for so long by us that the world owes Java something back. When people make improvements [to] Java these days, they should very well turn around and give that back to the community. So I'm really comfortable with GPL.
He's the thing, Tim. That is all well and good, except you maintain the dual licensing model. Unless *Sun* wants to fork Java — an all internal version, and an all GPL version — that is just not going to happen. All those improvements that might float around on the internet can't just be culled by Sun. The author has to hack through the red tape of your contributor agreement, feel comfortable with Sun selling her code to binary only distributors completely out her control — something which I suspect is going to go over like a fart in church with the exact people you are trying to woo with this — and THEN Sun will put it "in Java."
Frank Sommers: The new project on java.net is called OpenJDK. It's not called Java. How does the licensing change impact the use of the Java name?
Tim Bray: That's a very good question. The source code is open-sourced under the GPL. Anybody can take the code, anybody can change the code, anybody can compile their changed version and ship it, or sell it even.
What they can't do is call it Java. You can't call it Java unless it passes the TCK and goes through all the usual TCK and copyright processes you have to go through to call something Java.
That's how we're keeping the compatibility promise to the world. We're not doing it through engineering means, we're doing it through business and legal means. If something is called Java, and has the Coffee Cup logo on it, that means that it has passed the TCK and it is, in fact, fully compatible Java.
In the past, there have been incidents of people trying to skate around that, to call something Java that really isn't. In the past, when that happened, we have taken them to court. Let's be totally clear on that: If somebody's trying to do that, they'll find themselves in court right away. We will be very aggressive about that.
For the business user who doesn't want to be fooling around with experimental open-source, all they need to do is look for the Java name and the brand [image], and they'll have real Java. Whether it's called Java in the administration panel, or the command line you type to run it, or however you normally access it, if it appears under the name Java, then it had better be Java, or that distribution is going to end up in court. [ed: emphasis mine]
Seriously, that is (a) not or only marginally enforced right now, and (b) pretty stupid. If Sun wants to get its panties in a wad every time the word "java" is used then the courts should already be awash in suits. Fedora today ships with a "java" command that isn't Java™. Does GWT need to get sued because they hava a java.lang.String class that isn't TCK compliant? Why aren't you suing Classpath from the get go, since they don't pass the TCK?
I understand having Java™ certification, but this statement implies a level of legal wankery on Sun's part that is well past what we have been accustomed to and beyond that proverbial pale. Out side of that, is it good for Sun OR Java to have the Iceweasel issue here?

Very easy from start to finish! Only took 1 week to register the sale, get the free post pack, send it and receive the cheque
I reviewed on here a few days back and wanted to update just how useless this company is!! I ordered my furniture on 11th march and its now 3rd April and still nothing! I've had every excuse off them going and the so called friendly customer service rep I spoke to has finally run out of excuses and now denies all knowledge of the information she gave me. The only thing prompt about this company is how quick they can take your money! I paid for furniture nearly a month ago and still have nothing to show for it, I don't even know where it is as I've been given so many stories about it being with the delivery company or sent to the wrong company! I've taken different days off waiting for the furniture to be delivered and it was a waste! I wouldn't touch this company again!! They're a joke!

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Cluster Suite
When mission-critical applications fail, so does your business. This often is a true statement in today's environments, where most organizations spend millions of dollars making their services available 24/7, 365 days a year. Organizations, regardless of whether they are serving external customers or internal customers, are deploying highly available solutions to make their applications highly available.
In view of this growing demand, almost every IT vendor currently is providing high-availability solutions for its specific platform. Famous commercial high-availability solutions include IBM's HACMP, Veritas' Cluster Server and HP's Serviceguard.
If you're looking for a commercial high-availability solution on Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the best choice probably is the Red Hat Cluster Suite.
In early 2002, Red Hat introduced the first member of its Red Hat Enterprise Linux family of products, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS (originally called Red Hat Linux Advanced Server). Since then, the family of products has grown steadily, and it now includes Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES (for entry- and mid-range servers) and Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS (for desktops/workstations). These products are designed specifically for use in enterprise environments to deliver superior application support, performance, availability and scalability.
The original release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 2.1 included a high-availability clustering feature as part of the base product. This feature was not included in the smaller Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES product. However, with the success of the Red Hat Enterprise Linux family, it became clear that high-availability clustering was a feature that should be made available for both AS and ES server products. Consequently, with the release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 3 in October 2003, the high-availability clustering feature was packaged into an optional layered product called the Red Hat Cluster Suite, and it was certified for use on both the Enterprise Linux AS and Enterprise Linux ES products.
The RHEL cluster suite is a separately licensed product and can be purchased from Red Hat on top of Red Hat's base ES Linux license.
The Red Hat Cluster Suite has two major features. One is the Cluster Manager that provides high availability, and the other feature is called IP load balancing (originally called Piranha). The Cluster Manager and IP load balancing are complementary high-availability technologies that can be used separately or in combination, depending on application requirements. Both of these technologies are integrated in Red Hat's Cluster Suite. In this article, I focus on the Cluster Manager.
Table 1 shows the major components of the RHEL Cluster Manager.
Table 1. RHEL Cluster Manager Components
Software Subsystem | Component | Purpose |
Fence | fenced | Provides fencing infrastructure for specific hardware platforms. |
DLM | libdlm, dlm-kernel | Contains distributed lock management (DLM) library. |
CMAN | cman | Contains the Cluster Manager (CMAN), which is used for managing cluster membership, messaging and notification. |
GFS and related locks | Lock_NoLock | Contains shared filesystem support that can be mounted on multiple nodes concurrently. |
GULM | gulm | Contains the GULM lock management user-space tools and libraries (an alternative to using CMAN and DLM). |
Rgmanager | clurgmgrd, clustat | Manages cluster services and resources. |
CCS | ccsd, ccs_test and ccs_tool | Contains the cluster configuration services dæmon (ccsd) and associated files. |
Cluster Configuration Tool | System-config-cluster | Contains the Cluster Configuration Tool, used to configure the cluster and display the current status of the nodes, resources, fencing agents and cluster services graphically. |
Magma | magma and magma-plugins | Contains an interface library for cluster lock management and required plugins. |
IDDEV | iddev | Contains the libraries used to identify the filesystem (or volume manager) in which a device is formatted. |
Lock management is a common cluster infrastructure service that provides a mechanism for other cluster infrastructure components to synchronize their access to shared resources. In a Red Hat cluster, DLM (Distributed Lock Manager) or, alternatively, GULM (Grand Unified Lock Manager) are possible lock manager choices. GULM is a server-based unified cluster/lock manager for GFS, GNBD and CLVM. It can be used in place of CMAN and DLM. A single GULM server can be run in standalone mode but introduces a single point of failure for GFS. Three or five GULM servers also can be run together, in which case the failure of one or two servers can be tolerated, respectively. GULM servers usually are run on dedicated machines, although this is not a strict requirement.
In my cluster implementation, I used DLM, and it runs in each cluster node. DLM is good choice for small clusters (up to two nodes), because it removes quorum requirements as imposed by the GULM mechanism).
Based on DLM or GLM locking functionality, there are two basic techniques that can be used by the RHEL cluster for ensuring data integrity in concurrent access environments. The traditional way is the use of CLVM, which works well in most RHEL cluster implementations with LVM-based logical volumes.
Another technique is GFS. GFS is a cluster filesystem that allows a cluster of nodes to access simultaneously a block device that is shared among the nodes. It employs distributed metadata and multiple journals for optimal operation in a cluster. To maintain filesystem integrity, GFS uses a lock manager (DLM or GULM) to coordinate I/O. When one node changes data on a GFS filesystem, that change is visible immediately to the other cluster nodes using that filesystem.
Hence, when you are implementing a RHEL cluster with concurrent data access requirements (such as, in the case of an Oracle RAC implementation), you can use either GFS or CLVM. In most Red Hat cluster implementations, GFS is used with a direct access configuration to shared SAN from all cluster nodes. However, for the same purpose, you also can deploy GFS in a cluster that is connected to a LAN with servers that use GNBD (Global Network Block Device) or two iSCSI (Internet Small Computer System Interface) devices.
Both GFS and CLVM use locks from the lock manager. However, GFS uses locks from the lock manager to synchronize access to filesystem metadata (on shared storage), while CLVM uses locks from the lock manager to synchronize updates to LVM volumes and volume groups (also on shared storage).
For nonconcurrent RHEL cluster implementations, you can rely on CLVM, or you can use native RHEL journaling-based techniques (such as ext2 and ext3). For nonconcurrent access clusters, data integrity issues are minimal; I tried to keep my cluster implementations simple by using native RHEL OS techniques.
RHEL cluster suite
Thanks mate, really good information regarding RHEL cluster suite. i really impressed by your knowledge and expertise. Also see this i am qualified of PMI-001 and i am looking for some Red hat Certifications now.
Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

I used Tshirt Studio because it's the top rated service of its kind on Trustpilot. I ordered the T-shirt with Express delivery and it was very fast indeed - I received it before 12pm the next day. However, I had used a custom design for the t-shirt, and because some of the colours came out a bit darker on the t-shirt, a lot of the details in the original image were lost. Also, as a result of the image transfer process, the t-shirt looked slightly faded already when it arrived. I would have appreciated some advice on the colours to use in my original image to make sure it came out exactly how I'd like. Then again, it was a gift to someone and they were thoroughly pleased with the result. I would use them again, but not before trying out other services.

First-timers could be missing housing 'sweet spot'
January 2, 2013 @ 8:11 am (Updated: 11:20 am - 1/2/13 )
With low mortgage rates and fallen home values, some housing analysts are questioning why more first-time buyers-particularly the younger generation-aren't moving into the market.
A recent Reuters article questioned the reluctance: Could they be missing out on the "sweet spot" of the housing market by delaying their home purchases?
The desire to buy is certainly there. Ninety-three percent of renters in the millennial generation say they plan to buy a home in the future, according to a poll by Trulia. But the number of first-time homebuyers remains low: One in three homebuyers is first-timer, the article notes.
"Maybe that's because some millennials-generally those now in their 20s to early 30s-don't have the jobs that qualify them for mortgages, or because they are taking time to accumulate down payments, or because the ongoing wave of foreclosures has frightened them," wrote Linda Stern, a Reuters columnist.
Whatever the case, they may still have some time to cash in, particularly as long as financing a home purchase remains so low. The Fed announced it is keeping interest rates low until the unemployment rate drops below 6.5 percent, which the Fed doesn't expect to happen until 2015.

Google, Inc. is best known as an Internet search company. However, it has spent considerable time and effort developing other products that have both revolutionized technology and, at the same time, raised novel privacy concerns around the world. Google iniatives, such as its integration of its e-mail service into a new social networking platform and its worldwide mapping initiative, have caught the attention of the regulatory agencies in the United States as well as foreign governments. As a result of these investigations, Google has faced fines or the prospect of being barred from collecting data.
Social Network Revealed User Contacts
Google unveiled its first attempt to break into the social-networking business with its Google Buzz platform in February 2010. Google Buzz allowed users to share photographs and make comments, but it also automatically pulled contacts from Gmail accounts and displayed those contacts to other individuals. This immediately raised concerns among consumers, the government and privacy advocacy groups.
In April 2010, Google, Inc. received a demand from the data-protection authorities of 10 countries, including Canada, France, Germany, Israel, Italy, Ireland, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Spain, and the United Kingdom, requesting Google improve its user privacy, specifically referring to Google Buzz.1 In a letter, the U.K. Information Commissioner wrote about Buzz, "In essence, you took Google Mail, a private, one-to-one Web-based e-mail service, and converted it into a social networking service."2
In the United States, Google settled claims with Federal Trade Commission that it violated its own privacy policies when it introduced Buzz.3 Pursuant to the terms of the settlement, Google must accurately represent how it uses information and it must follow its policies to protect consumer data with regard to any products it releases. Additionally, pursuant to the settlement, although Google would not be subject to fines, it must submit to reviews over a 20 year period to ensure that it is following its privacy policies. Google further agreed to an independent review every two years, and it agreed to give "affirmative consent before [it] change[s] how [it] share[s] [users'] personal information."4
Google's Collection of Street View Data Prompts Investigations
Google announced the launch of Street View on May 29, 2007.5 Google Street View is an initiative taken by Google to enhance its existing two dimensional maps into a more immersive and useful depiction of city streets. In order to facilitate mapping, Google equipped cars with cameras and antennas to take photos of streets and houses, which would later be updated in Street View. The photos were pieced together online to create a map that a person on a street would see.
Soon after Street View's launch, regulatory agencies in different countries began to raise concerns on issues such as the visibility of individual faces in photos, the intrusiveness of the Google cars, and the height of the cameras. Officials from 30 European countries encouraged Google to take preventative steps to protect privacy rights. Among the measures, EU officials recommended that Google improve its blurring technique and consider tweaking images where people's faces or license plates can be seen.6 In September 2007, the Canadian Privacy Commissioner issued a statement voicing concerns that Google's practices may affect individual privacy rights of Canadian citizens.7 By May 2009, privacy concerns raised by Street View caused the Hellenic Data Protection Authority to prevent Google from expanding Street View into Greece until Google could provide more information regarding their practices.8 In November 2009, the Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner ("FDPIC") of Switzerland announced that as a result of Google's refusal to implement privacy protections in its Street View services, the FDPIC would be taking the matter to Federal Administrative Court. The FDPIC alleged that Google misrepresented its position, asserting that it would only film in urban centers, but actually filming in rural towns as well.9
In 2010, new allegations arose alleging that Google's Street View cars collected wireless data from open wireless networks. In May 2010, Peter Schaar, the Federal Commissioner for Data Protection and Freedom of Information in Germany released a statement indicating that the agency had learned that "Google Street View vehicles also were equipped with scanners for WLAN networks."10 Soon after the allegations arose, the Hamburg Prosecutors' Office began to investigate individuals at Google for criminal data capture.11 As a result, Google conducted an investigation and admitted to collecting Wi-Fi information sent over wireless networks while collecting data for Street View.12 Google noted that the information collected included web addresses and snippets of e-mails. Upon discovery of the data collection, Google claims it stopped its Street View cars.13
In May 2010, following Google's announcement that it was collecting Wi-Fi data, Spain, Italy, and France began investigations into Google's data collection practices.14 At the same time, Google agreed to delete any data it allegedly accidentally collected in Ireland and agreed to do the same in other countries. By June 2010, Google agreed to turn over its Wi-Fi data to regulators in Germany, France, and Spain.15 Soon after, Hungary and Austria began investigations into Google's data collection procedures. Regulators in Canada and the Czech Republic soon after began investigations. Google stopped deploying its cars for a period of time, but by July 2010, the vehicles were back on the road in Ireland, Norway, South Africa, and Sweden, with Google guaranteeing that it would no longer collect wireless data.16
As a result of the investigations, several countries including Spain, Canada, the United Kingdom, and New Zealand found that Google broke each country's respective laws by collecting the wireless data. In March 2011, Google was fined 100,000 euros ($142,000) by the French National Commission for Computing and Civil Liberties ("CNIL"), the largest fine in the history of the CNIL.17 The CNIL found that Google violated French privacy rules when it collected passwords and e-mails for Street View, and it determined that a high fine was appropriate because of "the economic advantages Google gained from these violations."18 However, in the United Kingdom, Britain's Information Commissioner Christopher Graham indicated that Google has taken "reasonable steps" to improve its privacy policies.19
Google faced scrutiny in Asia as well resulting from its Street View project. South Korean police raided Google's office in Seoul in August 2010 and collected material from Google associated with the Street View service.20 Although South Korea initiated an investigation, Hong Kong refrained from doing so, indicating that an investigation was unnecessary because none of the date collected by Google was "meaningful."21 Numerous complaints were also received from cities in Japan, noting that Google's cameras were too high and could take images over walls into private areas.22 After receiving a letter from Indian police in July 2011, Google stopped operating its Street View cars in India.23
Street View in the United States
In May 2010, as the number of investigations began to increase in Europe, in the United States the FTC announced that it would closely review Google's data collection policies.24 However, after a summer of investigation, on October 27, 2010, the FTC ended its probe into Google's collection of unsecured wireless data after Google assured the FTC that it would implement safeguards, improve its privacy standards, and not use the data it collected.25
In November 2010, the Federal Communications Commission announced that it would be investigating Google's allegedly inadvertent wireless data collection to determine if any of Google's actions ran afoul of FCC policy.26 The investigation is ongoing, and Chairman Julius Genachowski on June 22, 2011 indicated in letters to several congressmen that "the Bureau's inquiry seeks to determine whether Google's actions were inconsistent with any rule or law within the Commission's jurisdiction," indicating that the probe is going forward.27
Beyond regulatory action, private citizens affected by Google Street View have also taken their grievances to court. Most recently, in a July 18, 2011 Order, the U.S. District Court for the Northern District stayed litigation and certified for Interlocutory Appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit the question of whether a "radio communication" equated with an "electronic communication" under the Wiretap Act.28
Google Analytics
Another service, Google Analytics, provides a variety of statistics about visitors to websites. Google Analytics provides information including visitors from referrers, search engines, and other relevant data. However, the manner in which Google collects the data, by tracking IP addresses, has raised privacy concerns. Google Analytics has been shut down in Germany after German officials with the data privacy bureau in Hamburg threatened to fine Google for tracking IP addresses.29 Companies that continued to use Google Analytics in Germany would face a fine.
Android Location Tracking
Google's smart phone platform, Android, and associated hardware have become the new focus of investigations Germany and France.30 In a nonbinding opinion published on May 18, 2011, EU privacy officials issued a statement indicating that phones running Android could not track the location of the hardware because such information is personal under European data protection laws.31 The opinion stated that users of Android and other similar platforms must be given information about how their data is being processed. The opinion indicated that any data collected through WiFi access points in conjunction with a mobile device's location constitute personal data and would be subject to privacy rules under the EU.
Future Google Products
As a result of the close scrutiny that Google has faced recently, Google will likely take more precautions before launching new products both domestically and abroad. For example, until 2013, Google has agreed to consult with Australia's privacy regulator prior to releasing any noteworthy new products in the country.32 As a measure to ensure that it complies with government requests, in April 2010 Google introduced a "transparency tool," which provides information about "requests it receives for user data or content removal from government agencies."33 Regardless of what the product is, regulatory agencies around the world will likely look very closely at any initiative put forth by Google before allowing the company to collect data.
