Video clip on social networks, data mining and your info

The Canadian Office of the Privacy Commissioner has just released an online video about how information in social networks can be analyzed, aggregated and used for unintended purposes.

This is from the same Canadian privacy folks who influenced Google to add privacy-protective features to the Canadian images in the Google Maps Streetview tool. Unfortunately, according to a CBC news report, Google is only considering blurring identifiable photos and license plates outside of the USA.
