What costs a dollar to store on a hard drive can easily cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to search and review for a lawsuit. Ignoring or destroying salient information prior to or during a lawsuit can lead to losing a case regardless of the merits of the actual claim and spending a small fortune litigating the issue of whether you have met your [...]

If Google’s going to keep tying all their services together, you may as well know how that will work, and how you can benefit from it.
In just over a month, Google will change its privacy policies for all its products. Actually, Google is combining 70 different policies into a single set of rules, defining how the company treats all the personal information you provide.
