I am agree with you that Google is forcing and set default to encourage disclosing the information and trying to become big microblogging site.
Connected sites like Twitter, YouTube, Picasa, GoogleReader, Blogspot, GtalkStatus, Flicker, etc can be removed if we don’t wanna include in Buzz.
I also don’t like connecting google profile with Buzz bu contact information is revealed only our contacts and we can clear public info like About me, Sites and change the profile pic if we don’t wanna let it know to everyone. We can also hide the followers and the people we follow.
Anyway, spammers can’t get email address from Google Profile as contact information is revealed only our contacts.
We can also set our posts as private and limit to “My Contacts” if we don’t like to reveal our buzzes to unknown followers.
Google has already arranged well for privacy settings but their fault is setting default to share all and having no proper FAQ or video tutorial for privacy restriction.
My comment may be biased (as I love Buzz….)

Well, don’t get so shock, bro. It’s been ages I use Google profile since it came out. And anyone can guess my email address by looking at the profile url. I haven’t experienced any single spammers yet. Google’s spam security teams is one of the best. I just get most annoyed getting forwarded email in my inbox from my friends than spammers.
you can also control who can see your contact info such as phone number and address under profile edit.
if you share something on the service like google reader publicly, anyone can search, look for them and see them, don’t even need buzz. Because you share or public it on the web in the first place. Like this blog post, so that now i can read and commenting it.
A good news is you have given a choice to update on buzz publicly or privately, so that only people you want can see them. You can even choose which buzz to post public and which one to private.
if you don’t want to show up this blog posts or any of your google reader shared items or your google chat statuses, you just don’t incorporate or aggregate or (as in google connect) any of them into your buzz feed or account.
And i think you know all that cause I guess your are an IT guy. Your post is a bit biased for your readers. And that’s just my view, anyone can differ them. Right now, lets enjoy the Google buzz ride. Go Google, go!

I believe it is going to be even getting better down the road, basically I’m saying here is that Google just made available a blog to every GMail user. Buzz is too big to miss an opportunity and it deserve a second chance. So I really recommend you guys go for it and buzz on.
