Invasion of Privacy by Google Maps Car

-In San Francisco, a Google Maps car was driving around in Street View
-The car was casually picking up people's usernames and passwords
-38 states came together to fix this problem
-Google was fined for $7 million
-This was no the first time Google was fined since they also were charged about $22 million last summer for a similar incident
-Hopefully, Google changes their ways and refrains from carrying out problems such as these

Time Travel

If I could go anywhere in time, I would visit the 1960's. I would want to experience the different life style during that time since it is so different now. I feel like I would like that style of living better than the one I am living now since everything was so care-free. I would want to be apart of the fun that people had during the 60's, too.If I had to visit a specific place during this time it would probably be California because it would be interesting to travel all the way across the country seeing a ton of different sites during this era. I would not want to change anything during this decade because I believe it is already extremely interesting the way it is.
