Texans Keith Dunbar has filed suit against Gmail, writes The Register. Dunbar, who uses a different postal service, argues that Google illegally "reads" his letter addressed to users of Gmail.
Speech in the lawsuit comes on the algorithm of Google, which examines the contents of the letter to show for his reading of the relevant content. Dunbar said he did not give consent for such action on his letters. Google, he argues, violates the law on secrecy of electronic communications.
The lawsuit Dunbar requires Google compensation of $ 10 thousand, that is $ 100 for each "read" a letter. In addition, he urged away from Google profits from advertising show in his letters.
Representatives of Google, which contacted the journalists The Register, said that the Gmail "reads" letters, and users also to detect viruses and spam, so stop using these algorithms the company has no right.Source from ITChuiko
