eWeek reports that San Francisco Supervisor Jake McGoldrick, the ACLU and couple of other groups do not want the current Google/Earthlink free wi-fi deal to go ahead.

It seems they’re concerned that users will be asked to provide information that would allow Google to track who they are and where they.
