Upon signing in to Gmail, I was directed to some sort of Buzz landing page / prompt. I deliberately chose 'no / continue what I was doing'. (I wasn't aware of any problem, so I didn't make a point of memorizing the presentation.)
Upon proceeding in to Gmail, I found that I was participating in Buzz, with IIRC 14 follows.
My more general reaction to this situation, including a similar, serious security implication for a close family member, I'll comment on elsewhere in this thread.
Briefly: You fucked up bigtime, Google. The people truly responsible for this need to be terminated.
Me too. I just logged into my gmail account (which I don't use) and got a buzz page. I deliberately did not click the huge "Okay" button but instead the tiny "Nah", but then there was still a buzz tab and I had to click the very not obvious link at the bottom to turn it off.
