Что за письмо от Google (как я понял разослано для всех пользователей Gmail)?

Google rarely contacts Gmail users via email, but we are making an

exception to let you know that we've reached a settlement in a lawsuit

regarding Google Buzz (http://buzz.google.com), a service we launched

within Gmail in February of this year.

Shortly after its launch, we heard from a number of people who were

concerned about privacy. In addition, we were sued by a group of Buzz users

and recently reached a settlement in this case.

The settlement acknowledges that we quickly changed the service to address

users' concerns. In addition, Google has committed $8.5 million to an

independent fund, most of which will support organizations promoting

privacy education and policy on the web. We will also do more to educate

people about privacy controls specific to Buzz. The more people know about

privacy online, the better their online experience will be.

Just to be clear, this is not a settlement in which people who use Gmail

can file to receive compensation. Everyone in the U.S. who uses Gmail is

included in the settlement, unless you personally decide to opt out before

December 6, 2010. The Court will consider final approval of the agreement

on January 31, 2011. This email is a summary of the settlement, and more

detailed information and instructions approved by the court, including

instructions about how to opt out, object, or comment, are available at

http://www.BuzzClassAction.com.

This mandatory announcement was sent to all Gmail users in the United

States as part of a legal settlement and was authorized by the United

States District Court for the Northern District of California.
