"30 states may join probe of Google Wi-Fi snoop"
'As many questions as answers'

As many as 30 states may investigate Google for surreptitiously sniffing
traffic traveling over open Wi-Fi networks over a three-year span,
Connecticut's top law-enforcement official said on Monday.

Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal said his office will
lead the multi-state investigation into the unauthorized data collection
by Google Street View cars. A �significant number of states� are
expected to participate, according to a press release issued by his
office that claimed representatives from more than 30 states joined a
recent telephone conference call to discuss the probe.

�While we hope Google will continue to cooperate, its response so far
raises as many questions as it answers,� Blumenthal said in the release.
�The company must provide a complete and comprehensive explanation of
how this unauthorized data collection happened, why the information was
kept if collection was inadvertent and what action will prevent a
recurrence.�
