On top of that, Google outright LIED that it was just accident, and they have been now busted on their lie.

Yeah, just like we should not prosecute crooks that steal credit card numbers from ATM's, but instead we should blame the victims because they were "too stupid" not to see the modifications?

Maybe, just maybe, Google and their idiot engineers realize what it feels like when all their info leaks out? This is why he needs to be singled out, and all his information made public.

Not every site supports https, and I don't want some random people to snoop data even if isn't as secure. And in fact, I do use VPN for exactly this reason, but I am in the minority that knows this stuff. 99% don't.

The reason we have laws is to prevent people from taking advantage of situations. Your reasoning is along the same as "you shouldn't go out if you don't want to get stabbed". It is not reasonable suggestion. We prevent people from abusing things like this with laws and there are penalties if they do. I hope Google gets fined big time and every engineer and supervisor associated with the project put into jail. That's what would happen to any individual doing this.

You can't be that stupid. I live in a place that has wifi where you log in with password. It is encrypted, but after logged in you can still sniff everyone else on the network. It still doesn't make it right to do so.

Likewise, your internet traffic goes unencrypted when it leaves your house. It doesn't make it right for me to plug in to that in between your house and ISP and capture that data.

Google and Marius Milner can go fuck themselves.

Anyone remember Eric Schmidt's words:

"If you have something that you don't want anyone to know, maybe you shouldn't be doing it in the first place."

Oh wow, looks like Google tried to protect the guy being identified in courts and now he is outed by NY Times. How big hypocrisy is that? Oh wow, turns out he is a wardriving software creator, hacker and the patent application Google and he was awarded was about protecting against the exact thing Google and he JUST DID, worldwide snooping and collection of private data. Just wow, Google. Just wow.

MariusMilner.com and every other associated domain is free. Hint hint. He probably has nothing to hide, so there's no problem if someone lists all the publicly available information, pictures, images, live movements etc there ;-)
