swept away

any remaining illusions of internet privacy were swept away this morning upon logging on to the home page...the birthday cake doodle was intriguing, and quick hover of the mouse brought this surprising revelation

thanks in advance for any good wishes, but there is a larger issue here...how did google know this?

Nikon D90
Nikkor 16-85mm - 1/20s f/5.6 at 85.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Well, Happy Birthday a few days late. Hope it was a good one filled with lots of music, good friends and something tasty to eat and drink. No such thing as privacy anymore I guess.

Well, well!! The word privacy no longer exists and is to be removed from the next printing of the Webster dictionary. Happy birthday, David..

The only thing they missed was your date of birth. It's a different world now Did the USA's NSA send it.
