Shortly after the launch of Google Buzz, Google realized that its auto follow and auto suggest feature exposed user’s profile to everyone without the concern of the user. Soon, Google started working over it and made a number of significant changes. The auto following feature was disabled, Buzz no longer connected to Public Picasa Albums and Reader’s Shared Items and also, a Buzz tab was added to Gmail Settings.
