Over on Newsblog, Jane Perrone is looking at the latest tech scandal: Google has broken contact with news website CNet because it published some information about their big boss (by using, erm, Google).
The search giant has sent technology news site CNet to Coventry for a year over a story written by reporter Elinor Mills. She had the temerity to employ Google's own search technology to dig out details of Google CEO Eric Schmidt's business and personal life, including how much he made from selling Google shares and the town where he lives.
Seemingly as a result of the "privacy issues" raised by the piece, Google has banned its staff from talking to any CNet reporters for a year.
Jane rounds up the commentary on the debacle, with the pundits almost universally wonder: what on earth are they on about?
