Google interviewing your customers

Filed under: marketing |

Update: My apologies to Igbor - he deserved the link on this story :) 

WebProNews writes about Google interviewing their customers while using Google Analytics (with conversion tracking). Apparently this has been a known issue for some time (on selective sites) and there is no way to opt out of the program without removing the conversion tracking code.

Collecting user feedback without explicit permission from publishers? Sounds pretty evil to me…

  1. Hey thanks for mentioning my story. I do feel kind of scre*ed by WebProWorld since they are getting all the coverage (links) from my story :-)

    But I guess if they didn’t republished it, it wouldn’t have gotten read as much just from my blog.
