    The Google buzz can give you access of viewing any one's account so that they can also see your detail by typing your name in the Google search and easily can get the detail of your. So you can make the search little low by typing your half name so that search will not give the accurate answer and people will not find you. But if the person know about your URL then he can make it easy to find your profile.

    Another weakness of the Google Buzz is that it automatically expose information of your Gmail account so that other can see the same. If you are using the Gmail account then Google Buzz is automatically gets activated to your Gmail account without any notification. And also reveal the information of your like contact, and personal data.

    The Google buzz have to work on the Privacy issue more as other social networking site have the better security then this after facing some lawsuit. This adds up people automatically from your contacts without any notification. SO that people whom you don't want to add and don't need to expose your information to them can also get your update. Like the people you have mailed can be added to your buzz list which is known as the another fault of the Google.

    For better you can do some of the setting of the Google buzz that will make the same little safe for allowing any one to see your information. As you have created the Google Buzz account you have people added people and follower to your list. By block option you can stop the person from viewing your account info. Just go the profile of any user whom you don't want in your list and click on the Block button. Also unfollow the user . That it!!!!!!

    In order to post in Buzz, or to comment on or "like" other people's posts, you need to have a public Google profile which at a minimum includes your first and last name. When you first enter Google Buzz, to make the startup experience easier, we may automatically select people for you to follow based on the people you email and chat with most. Similarly, we may also suggest to others that they automatically follow you. You can review and edit the list of people you follow and block people from following you. Your name, photo, and the list of people you follow and people following you will be displayed on your Google profile, which is publicly searchable on the Web. You may opt out of displaying the list of people following you and who you're following on your profile. To read more about it go to the google.com
