Yeah,  privacy is important. Privacy if you are using a shared computer, and
privacy for possible malware/intrusion.
I really do not know how Baloo works, but everything related to indexing and
collection of personal data I do not like it and it gives me a bad feeling. It
should be possible to disable it for those who think like me.
