New Poll: When it comes to diabetes, how do you prefer being referred to as? Previous poll results

The results for the previous poll about Google Health are now in:

The new poll is live on the home page (or you can also vote here): When it comes to diabetes, how do you prefer being referred to as?

43% have “serious privacy concerns”? Wow, seriously?

I can’t help but wonder how many of the people concerned are so because of specific reasons or simply because everyone says they should be.

I mean we already have pretty much every piece of “secret” info about us stored somewhere on the internet. We access our bank accounts and make highly sensitive financial transactions daily with our online banking but there are privacy concerns with storing info like “Allergies”, “Conditions” and “Age/Sex/Height” into places like Google Health?

If it isn’t Google it will be someone else, which we’re seeing more and more of. In the end if people have privacy concerns with Google specifically then at the least they’ll have the power of choice with all the other solutions. But seriously, it’s quite likely those same people are still using Google services daily for their other needs such as search.
