The problem may be that the public doesn't seem to get it. They just don't seem to process, or care, that google is mining everything they give them - search, email/calendar/etc, Android, etc etc. I guess a lot of it is behind the scenes enough that they don't understand it or don't get riled up like they do about Facebook and the like.
- pault 8y agoI have a non-technical friend who doesn't use facebook, pays for everything in cash, and will only use e2e encrypted chat clients, but he has this irrational hate for apple because "hipsters" and uses an android phone that literally documents his every move. It drives me crazy.
