You've been Googled: Google to expose your face in online ads

Fox News reports:

They did warn us.

You get a message from a friend: “Hey, didn't know you were using those adult diapers! Great choice!” It turns out your picture is attached to an ad going out to thousands of people—and you didn't know a thing about it.

You're mortified to discover that Google + simply culled your likeness and tied it to the ad. It's part of what's called “Shared Endorsements.” Google has done something similar in the past with its “+1” program but now it has expanded the program, adding pictures and quotes from you to an ad even if all you did was follow that store or service.

Just a reminder.
