Google: No humans read your emails



Recently Microsoft has suspected that Google violates the privacy of Gmail users by reading their emails to serve up advertisements.


Tech giant Microsoft, which is Google’s competitor, has also introduced a website - www.scroogled.com – which shows "Google's practice of going through the contents of all Gmail emails to sell and target ads".

Microsoft's senior director of online services, Mr. Stefan Weitz revealed, "Emails are personal and people feel reading... their emails to sell ads is out of bounds... We are concerned that Google violates privacy every time an Outlook.com user exchanges messages with someone on Gmail."

Google revealed that no humans went through the mails; its only algorithms which determined the ads.
