All Your Health Data collected by Apple or Google (and by extension, the NSA)
 Google Reportedly Unveiling Health Data Tracking Service at I/O ConferenceThe new "Google Fit" health data tracking service will compete with Apple's recently announced HealthKit data collection services, according to a report. Google will debut its plans for a new health data tracking service called "Google Fit" at the upcoming Google I/O developers conference as part of its recent push into high-tech wearables. The rumored Google Fit strategy, which was first reported by Forbes earlier this month, calls for Google to "aggregate data through open APIs, instruction sets that allow apps to share information, and will also announce partnerships with wearable device makers at its I/O conference," according to the article. The new service will "collect and aggregate data from popular fitness trackers and health-related apps, according to multiple sources with knowledge of the company's plans," and will be launched at the June 25-26 Google I/O conference in San Francisco, the story reported.
