In what countries is this service available? 
 TiSP is available today in the U.S. and Canada.
Google has formed an international consortium of
utility companies, sewage system experts, toilet
manufacturers, and plumbers to develop solutions to
the many problems facing all "dark porcelain"-based
data-delivery innovators.

I agree with you here.  Things could get messy.  But
they say that they will protect your privacy.  One bad
thing though is the ads:  This is what they say

It's good for you. Your FREE TiSP service includes a
Google Toolbar-based analysis of your dietary habits
and genetic predispositions, along with
recommendations for healthier living.

We could ignore the ads.  What else can we do?  They
say that this is how the service is payed for.
