Do not want my being - your FEI recorded in Google? The company announced the opening of the option be deleted from the database of its geographical position
Google your wireless network will disappear from the map. The company, collects information on the Android precise geographic location of home wireless networks, today announced the opening of its option to be deleted from the repository. The action was designed to satisfy government agencies, both in Europe and the United States, who care about Google's invasion of privacy to its users.
Today, Google collects information "air" using Android phones whose owners have agreed to be included in the collection of data location, and using mobile photo service Google Street View. The information should include only the network name, but last year learned the case where mobility photography (who have not done so in Israel) also collected additional data items that were not secure networks.
The reason for collecting information is to provide a better location services. Already, Google is able to replace the GPS satellites in urban areas, and determine your exact location by comparing the signal strength of wireless networks around you map that own wireless networks. That is also why today it is much easier to use location services even when you are inside a building, and there is no clear line of sight between your phone and the GPS satellites.
If you still do not want Google to pick the location of your network, all you need to do today is change its name - add a "_nomap". Thus, a wireless network named wireless network will CoreTechz named CoreTechz_NoMap.
