Google has admitted doing so, but apologised, saying it was in error.

Strange. Just a very short while ago, Google has been probed in Germany for the very same reason: collecting not only information on private WLANs, but also collecting personal data that were transmitted via these WLANs. In Germany, they said it was just an error.
And now they do the same ting on the other side of the planet, and again say "it'S just an error that occured"...?
Google's reputation as the globe's greatest data-kraken is for no reason. It still stuns me to see how little people care for giving away personal data and information to a commercial company outside any legal control - but call down heaven and hell and spell the end of mankind if considerably less ammounts of data would be collected by government services in order to print them onto an ID card.
