Google in general doesn't give a flying fuck about your privacy

EDIT: actually, they do care so much about it being shared with them :P

Oh, they care!

They care about invading it for profit :)

Yep, it is one of the main reasons I have been switching away from Google products. Proton Mail for email, for example. I have no desire to give Google every detail of what I do online.
