> Why would you continue to support a company whose policies you no longer support I use tools not because I want to support a company, but because the tool is useful to me. Things can be legal without enforcing them. For example, you can breath air without government enforcing it. Or you can switch search engine providers without government enforcement. More important observation here is that this particular article and discussion in comments is too politically charged (my comment above got even downvoted twice already). That's a bad sign and most likely nothing good would come out from this discussion.

If I think that the company gains more than I do in that exchange (for example I get the data I need, but they get more money from ad views and more information to process), then they can convert that gain to introduce more policies I disagree with. If this is not in my interest, then maybe I should stop using the tool.
