Google is planning to overhaul its main privacy policy in an effort to make the document more readable and usable for normal people. In addition, Google also is eliminating privacy policies for some of its individual products and services, which it deemed redundant. The shift is a clear acknowledgement by the company that privacy policies, like software license agreements, are generally unreadable, and therefore go unread by virtually all consumers. Google has come under sharp criticism from privacy advocates for the amount of data that they collect on users and ways in which the company uses that data.
