EDITOR'S NOTE

According to a paid survey of 1,000 Australians, one in four people have changed their attitude to online information sharing in the wake of recent privacy scandals involving Google and Facebook.

Also today, guest columnist Sam Gentle explains how Google Apps could land enterprise users in "hot soup", and Oracle sweats US Government allegations that it defrauded the Government out of tens of millions of dollars.
