Google Buzz has certainly been generating lots of buzz. Here are some privacy tips that you have been clamoring for.
Disabling Buzz - Go to the very bottom of the page. There is a link that says “turn off buzz.”
Removing a Follower - Right above your posting text box, there is a link that says “# followers”. You can then click the “Unfollow” link to remove the person.
Blocking a Follower - Going a step further you can click on any name in your buzz and they will show up at the top of your page with links to “Unfollow” and “Block [name].”
It has been noted that blocking a user may not work. If the person has a Google Profile, you can block them; however, if the person has not yet setup a Google Profile, they will remain unblocked no matter what you do. Google dropped the ball on this one.
Limiting who can see your Buzz - You can choose who can see your posts on a per post basis by setting up contact groups.
Google, Google Buzz

I'm not using Buzz until google figures out how users can have complete control on who can follow them. Buzz kill!
Hehe, I just disabled mine for right now too.
