I noticed that on a CNET news page, there’s a +1 button (which is Google’s equivalent of Facebook’s Like button). What’s disturbing is that I never told the +1 button/CNET what my Google account was (although I assume it’s because I had my iGoogle page open in the same browser but I’m not an expert there) and yet when I hovered over the button it showed me that it knew my email and name.
