Orkut Info Offered to the Outside

Danny Sullivan: "at least one company got a good chunk of data, as shown by the Orkut Personal Network Geomapper. It lets you look up anyone in the Orkut database at the time the information was mined, then see their connections. So far, I haven't found that any personal data is being revealed beyond the names of your connections. However, no doubt that personal data is part of the information that was mined, an embarrassment for Google."

update: Google issues C&D to close the Orkut Personal Network Geomapper web site.
