gollark: Thing is, what I'm attempting to say is: what sort of bad things do you think people or companies could do with leaked or bought or whatever data?
gollark: Google does, if not much else, have, as far as I know, a good track record for not letting other people get their precious datas.
gollark: I was asking Solar, but yes, that's actually sensible I guess.
gollark: Anyway, what I'm saying is, outside of selling of data to other companies (which basically just spreads it more widely, which I guess you might be against in itself?), what particular bad things are you worried non-Google companies might do with your data?
gollark: Initiate orbital laser strike!
