Google Buzz Knows Where You Live

The Register is reporting that Google Buzz has a fairly frightening way of dealing with geo-location data. Apparently, Google Buzz is easily exploitable to where a hacker can use it to determine where you live. Most basically put, it’s tied into Google’s Location services, according to the report.

What does this mean to you?

As if privacy concerns were not enough, now we have to worry about Google Buzz becoming a problem and allow folks to hack into it and discover where you live. Awesome, even if we don’t participate in other social networks that use geo-location, we are still at risk!
