Presumably there servers are all over the world and subject to different privacy laws? I assume they'll have to limit access to the user and sign a contract with the user/Google then it becomes a civil issue not a medicolegal one? <a HREF="http://www.waittimes.blogspot.com/" REL="nofollow">www.waittimes.blogspot.com</a> I don’t think that google has hit the mark with this product but business sense aside how do they plan on meeting privacy policies across borders?

You're point about privacy is good -- I can imagine the paid advertisments I'll get on the side when I get diagnosed with ED. All kidding aside, it's a good idea but I don't think it will be used by most people. They could have used their computing power to better organize primary care.

Just my opinion. Fair enough, but I honestly don’t think a product that deals with data like this should be treated with such a laissez-faire attitude. Just my opinion.
