It has nothing to do with "I should also profit from my data" but rather, I want to contribute less to Google's dominance.
Google has become very powerful--it's in the top 10 of lobby spending in the US.
Their power is tied to their profits, and limiting my contribution of one, should limit my contribution to the other.
