I think this was the case with Google when they decided to Buzz us gmail users recently.
Seems the community decided that getting auto subscribed with no user input, plus making it difficult to change settings and figure out what is public or not, was a bit too, um, surprising?
So Google has decided to backtrack and fix a couple of settings to be more obvious. Perhaps something they should have done in the first place?!
Wondering how much of this negative feedback was via Buzz itself?...
