Google is not holding up its "end of the bargain" with customer privacy, according to noted security researcher Moxie Marlinspike.

Marlinspike, who now works for Twitter having sold his mobile security firm Whisper Systems to the micro-blogging firm in 2011, said Google's recent changes to privacy were not "fair."

Google this week created a tighter privacy policy, rolling 60 of its services into it. This would allow the company to share data between these services. Users have to agree to the policy and can always quit their Google account if they are not happy with the changes, but the alterations concerned Marlinspike.
