Subject: Invasion of Privacy Google Search Check This Out

Google has implemented a new feature wherein you can
type someone's telephone number into the search bar
and hit enter and then you will be given a map to
their house. Everyone should be aware of this!
Note that you can have your phone number removed or
blocked. Before forwarding this, I tested it by
typing my telephone number in google.com. My phone
number came up, and when I clicked on the MapQuest
link, it actually mapped out where I live. Quite
scary. Please look up your own number. Read below
for details. Think about it--if a child, ANYONE
gives out his/her phone number, someone can actually
now look it up to find out where he/she lives. The
safety issues are obvious, and alarming. In order to
test whether your phone number is mapped, go to:
<http://www.google.com/> Type your phone number in the
search bar (i.e., 555-555-1212) and hit enter. If you
want to BLOCK Google from divulging your private
information, simply click on your name, the telephone icon or the
"Phone results" link next to your phone number.
Removal takes 48-hours. If you are unlisted in the
phone book, you might not be in there, but it is a
good idea just to check. If your number does come up
if you hit map, it will show you a direct map to your
house... Please forward on to friends and family!!!
