My Flickr pictures in the Microsoft domain? I had been thinking about this since the rumours started.

@qgil: corporate mergers (like this MSFT+YHOO) bring some interesting twist into your social (and often private to extent) data felling into unpredictable hands...
As G keeps growing, MS tries to buy Y! again (a year ago MS did the same move but Y! said no). No big surprise. Quim, do you feel more comfortable with G knowing your social network (BTW http://code.google.com/apis/socialgraph/ ) or your search activity or even your web browsing history (through AdSense)?
Qgil data are already in unpredictable hands, actually (the only predictable hands are one's own).
It's not a matter of privacy, it's a matter of taste. I know Google servers know more about me than myself, but at least they have good taste. Flickr had also good taste and it didn't go away with the Yahoo! acquisition.
But yeah, I reckon my initial comment was pathetic. ;)
