Only when the privacy can meet user requirement, it means the privacy policy does work. Otherwise, there is always space to move ahead. No matter google or other IT companies, they provide service to their clients, client requests are the most important forever. I totally agree this opinion.

Most of the applications/services have done a good job, for instance, Facebook. I think should defaults be set to public or private depends on the system as well as the public aweness of priavcy regarding to this system. If we compare Twitter, Facebook, and Google Buzz on status update, by default, Twitter is open to all, Facebook is open to your friends and network, and Google Buzz is open to your contacts. Even though I am not setting the privacy now, I know the settings are there and I can adjust anytime, that is already okay for me. @Brian: to me, the most important principle is providing the options to be selective of my personal data sharing.
