Google must divulge the viewing habits of every user who has ever watched any video on YouTube, a US court has ruled.

wtf?

    What I don’t get is why they can’t just use some salted hash to create one-way unique ID’s for users… surely this would preserve some anonymity while giving them what they want.
    Ho hum, I just watch funny pet videos anyway. :D
