As I pointed out this morning here - http://theamericandictator.com/content.php/133-Google-has-created-a-virtual-GPS-on-YOUR-laptop-desktop-computer-cellphone.-Really! Google isn't collecting wifi info without a reason. It is collecting the data because it is using it create an unbeatable virtual GPS on every wifi equipped device - laptop - netbook - desktop - cellphone - etc. etc. And THAT data, delivered to google realtime, is also made available through an open API, to everyone. The social implications of having your physical location monitored, reatlime, all the time, is chilling.
