Following up on a story reported on SoylentNews previously, [soylentnews.org] it appears that Google has reversed their controversial policy [bbc.com] of mining student accounts on behalf of advertisers.

I guess I'm glad Google's no longer imposing their business model on students (who don't exactly get to choose their
school's email provider), possibly in violation of the law. I'm disappointed it took a lawsuit to get them to stop.
