You know, the type that calls you up for tech support on a regular basis because &amp;quot;you know computers&amp;quot;.  Someone tells them &amp;quot;Hey, you should be using Incognito when doing adult activities&amp;quot; and then gets caught browsing adult sites on a work computer because they thought Incognito would make it invisible.&lt;p&gt;This lawsuit isn&amp;#x27;t for you and me, it&amp;#x27;s for them.&lt;p&gt;The question is, since &lt;i&gt;WE&lt;/i&gt; know what it did, is it ethical (or even legal) for us to join the class action?&lt;p&gt;Personally, even if it was legal, and even if someone convinced me it wasn&amp;#x27;t unethical, I wouldn&amp;#x27;t do it.  I don&amp;#x27;t want to risk Google being like &amp;quot;You joined a lawsuit against us, so we don&amp;#x27;t want to do business with you.  Say goodbye to your entire Google account.  This locks you out of your phone?  Too damn bad.&amp;quot;</text><parent_chain><item><author>chungy</author><text>If I was presiding over this case, I&amp;#x27;d throw it out.
