The conflict of interest is pretty obvious when you think about it. Google is in the business of getting as much data as it can on people so it can show them "relevant" ads. Would you trust organizing the elections and counting the ballots to the majority party? Would you ask the oil industry to organize climate change research? Would you trust big tobacco's studies that cigarettes are healthy? Of course we do these things to some extent already, and we can see how skewed the results are because these parties aren't neutral when it comes to these issues. So yeah, trusting google related companies with any kind of privacy concerns can't lead to anything good (for the rest of us, not for Google of course)
