If you can get past the typical shit NY Times journalism and read the real content two kids, young adults really, had all government funding for Acorn halted because of some undercover video work they did and viral video that got to the right people in the right places.
And so you don’t have to read the Times bullshit heres the link to the site that started it all.

The article talks about how google is trying to make it for anyone to “packup” their data and leave any of googles services. However, despite the fact its easy to export blogger and picasa, and gmail they still didn’t make note about weather or not the information is gone from their databse which raises some concern.

An exploit based on off a bookmarklet that would automatically respond and reply to any comment on the redditt page. And later transformed to work with mouseover of any comment that it was embedded in. So if anyone moused over it would automatically use that users info to respond to every comment on the page.
This is the original code used I found after sifting through a lot of comments
