google today announced new privacy settings and a privacy policy the company says will provide you with a simpler experience across all of its platforms. it will also provide google with some additional revenue. so everybodies happy, right? not exactly. as matt tells us, privacy experts and many people who use google have a different take on this new policy. >> it is a big deal. >> as a long time user of gmail, google's e-mail service, david jacobs says he's not happy at all about the changes in google's privacy policy. >> i think it makes it a lot harder for google users such as myself to control their personal data.

>> as the consumer privacy fellow with the electronic privacy information center, jacobs says google's new policy makes him extremely nervous. >> this is google knowing basically everything about what you do and taking that information and making money off of it. >> according to jacobs there are two especially troubling changes to google's privacy policy. first, the company has various entities including google search, gmail, google maps and youtube will now share information gathered about its users. >> they are going to know more about you than your spouse. >> second users will not have the option to opt out. in other words, not to have their information shared. >> that's not a meaningful choice. >> instead their only option will be to stop using google services altogether. >> google knows that you're not just going to stop using it. >> which jacobs says most people probably won't do. no matter how much they object to the new privacy policy. >> how is that legal? >> and an opinion supported by people we spoke with outside

the apple store in georgetown. people who said they don't like the new privacy policy but would not stop using google. >> gmail and everything is too widespread. there's no way i would stop. >> it makes perfect sense why they would want to do that and no sense why i'd want to have my information like that. >> the new policies go into effect march 1. google executives tonight declined our request for an interview but perhaps they will speak with you so if you'd like to voice your opinion about the privacy policies, the telephone number for google's corporate offices in california is 650-253-0000. anita? >> okay, matt, thank you. caught on tape, a dramatic avalanche rescue. this is in washington state. a group of friends decide to go snowmobiling one afternoon and within seconds of this video starting a wave of snow comes rolling down literally burying john swanson alive. his friends quickly rush over, start to dig him out. john says the only saving grace is they knew exactly where to

look. he says it felt like he was sitting in a frozen concrete block but he wasn't hurt. it's pretty amazing when you consider how much snow was on top of him. >> you're supposed to swim, they can move 200 miles an hour, and they only get to you in the first 45 minutes then it's like oh,, way way down. well we're looking at actually a little temperature correction from the 50s to the 40s. we can handle that. there's nothing arctic on the horizon. let's start with a live shot. this is a live shot and white house just about to go dark here. temperature wise, we're looking at temperatures still above average, high was 54 today, we're only 39 at national, dew points only 37, so when the dew point is at 37 it's hard to fall below the dew point unless you get a horizontal transport of dryer air and now the winds are calm so temperatures 41, bethesda 43 in rockville, and these would not be out of the ordinary during the afternoon, quite frankly. 35 in great falls, 36 in

sterling and 39 again downtown and still 43 in arlington, still 42 up in beltsville. well here is the deal. you'll need your shades for the morning commute. pretty much pure sunshine so coming in 66, coming around the spur, grab your shades. it will be dry for both commutes and that said a little bit cooler wednesday and there will be afternoon clouds wednesday by 3:00, 4:00, 5:00 and then well locate your umbrella for thursday. not a power pack storm coming here but there will be some light rain and showers developing thursday morning, so overnight, we'll just call it clear to partly cloudy and chilly, one blanket night, lows in the 30s, winds northwest at 10-15 after midnight and we get into tomorrow morning, mostly sunny and chilly, grab your shades really quite respectable for january and 30s and 40s, winds northwest at 10 and sun now comes up at 7:20 and goes down about 5:21, so that means 10 hours of daylight, that's pretty important if you're a plant. mostly sunny and cooler, partly

cloudy and cooler, some clouds come in late tomorrow. you still need a light jacket but that's about it. high temperatures 44-48 and that kind of shaves a couple degrees off, winds northwesterly at 10. so high temperatures downtown upper 40s, some mid 40s, reston 47, 45 in sterling and 47 in college park and 47 over in buoy so we'll break it down for you then. in the morning it will be chilly, 30s but clear and by noon 42-46, partly cloudy and by evening 44-48, some clouds coming in, high and mid level clouds that will stay dry and the next three days looks like this. we get into thursday and rain and showers, not again a power pack system, upper 40s, mondaying showers friday and look what happens, milder back in the mid 50s friday. next seven days it will get colder over the weekend, a slight chance of rain saturday, low confidence at this point but colder, temperatures mid 40s and really cold on sunday, mid 30s and flurries, upper 30s

on monday and typical of this winter we bounce back into the 50s next tuesday. >> at least the kids will like the flurries over the weekend. >> this kid will too. >> the biggest kid of all right? so there was a huge fire drill at the verizon center. >> i like that. a lot going on at the verizon center and i was right in the middle of it. alexander, check this out. this guy has a lot of time on his jands and wait until you see how he spent it tonight at the verizon center. wizards heading in a new direction with a new coach but how secure is the general manager? hear what he has to say

so, alex is suspended and won't rep the caps at the all- star game and now i'm sure the league would love to have one of its premier stars and its mid season showcase but he ain't going. here is why. >> i'd love to be there but

again i'm suspended and i feel i'm not deserving to be there right now. if suspended i have to be suspended. >> what he said was he's suspended. he is serving a three game suspension for this hit sunday on pittsburgh. he wasn't penalised in the game. in his absence the team has been talking about others stepping up. for example, matthew paroe just moments before tonights game. >> what do you feel your role is on this number one line tonight? >> bring speed and energy. these guys are good. i'm going to try to give them the piceance. >> simple and a little foreshadowing. he was addicted to the nylon in many ways tonight, ladies, bringing a little energy, a little hat trick his first career hat trick and all the hats on the ice, caps beat the bruins 5-3. good stuff. >> the inevitable happened to the, flip sonders was relieved of his duties after the general

manager made the recommendation. last night didn't help. it was another lackluster performance that added to the speculation that the players were not responding to flip's message and they got blown out by 20, down by 30 at one point and a lot of people think ernie is next to go. he drafted most of these guys after four coaching changes in four years, how secure should he be? >> we had a plan. we stuck to our plan. i think we've gotten exactly where the plan intended to take us, so i feel very comfortable in what i'm doing and i'm just it's not a concern of mine. i just want to do the best job i can on a daily basis. >> he's secure. okay, then, randy whitman takes over and it's his third lead job, he coached in minnesota and cleveland, his overall record 100 and 207. >> the united states never it, for the past 100 years never it hasn't played in anyones conference. they've been an independent and that changes starting in 2-15. part of the big east conference. >> this weeks high school game

of the week poll. some great basketball games. the stags one of our headliners and then you got in the girls side undefeated oakton and go to d.c..highschoolsports.net. >> finally, alex had a lot of time on his hands and his teammate matthew are going for the gusto, so what do they do? how about a little russian tie in the face, he comes down from the press booth and says okay, you had a great game. how about russian pie? >> russian pie. >> it's good [ bird chirping ]

so, a guy in texas set the new gold standard for distracted driving. >> he was driving his pregnant wife to a birthing center when she started to deliver the baby right in the front passenger seat but he didn't pull over. no, he puts the foot on the

federal, reaches for his video camera, sped down the highway with one hand on the wheel and the other hand on the cord. >> wow. >> and just making sure the frame was good and that i was staying on the road. i'm surprised i did real well. >> about the time my water broke i pushed once and she was out. i felt pretty good and i didn't think it was going to happen that fast. >> no kidding. everything turned out fine. they have named their baby willow. when the baby gets of age they plan to give that to her what wa [ female announcer ] dance cooking? bring it.
