Well then if you live in the EU, complain to the Data Protection Commissioners in Ireland. http://www.dataprotection.ie/ViewDoc.asp?DocID=18&UserLa... It appears that you need to have deleted your data already, and then contacted Google and asked to have it permanently deleted. There's an online form and everything....

I vaguely remember that when people complained about Facebook, they were forced to ensure that data had been deleted.

Thanks for the info! I was unaware of that. I live in the US; I wonder if there is similar jurisdiction here.
