In advertising: telepathy can happen !!!!

Here is a very nice link that was sent to me by one of my students, this one chases the copy cat issue, another ethical consideration to marketers!! (A copycat is a person that mimics or repeats the behavior of another. The term is often derogatory, suggesting a lack of originality. The expression may derive from kittens that learned by imitating the behaviors of their mothers. – Wikipedia.). What i liked about it is the local and national examples!!!! enjoy it and Thanks to Shikha Al-Hardan http://bloganubis.com/

How legal or ethical is that?!

Gillette has been caught hiding tiny RFID surveillance chips in the packaging of its shaving products. These tiny, high tech spy tags are being used to trigger photo taking of unsuspecting customers!

Is street view ethical?

Do you think it is ethical that google would continue using this service? If you think yes, so what do you think of the two following quotes?

"A furious British wife has called in divorce lawyers after spotting her husband's car parked outside another woman's house — on Google". (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,511778,00.html)

"Google has removed dozens of photos from its new UK Street View service. "
