gollark: I have.
gollark: My point is that presumably SolarFlame5 is worried about some activity advertising companies could do with their data, but there's not a reason Google couldn't do it too. Outside of selling data, but the issue with that is that ultimately you're (probably) worried some company will do something other than just "sell it on" with it.
gollark: I mean, that's probably not guaranteed either, but how do you know that Google won't use it for whatever evil purpose the advertising companies which might otherwise have your data would?
gollark: But you know what Google will do... why exactly?
