Google to pay web users to browse their favourite sites - as long as search giant can watch

Google to pay web users to browse their favourite sites - as long as search giant can watch | Mail Online: "Google is to pay computer users to browse the web so the search giant watches every link they click. 'Panelists' in the new Google Screenwise programme will be paid up to $25 in Amazon gift cards. The payments offer an insight into how much web users' private data - usually harvested by giants such as Facebook and Google without payment - is worth. Users have to download a browser extension, which allows Google to monitor which sites they visit and how they use them."
