  I'm just providing facts, with source. The above post contains no opinion. I'm not sure why you assume anything about my trust with Google?

    It may be a fact that the Google spokeperson said that, but parroting it without any context does seem to imply you have trust in Google. I don’t think that’s an unfair take on what you posted. Google has eroded a ton of trust over the years so to emphasize (with your italics) a public statement does seem to brush over the lack of credibility of the source you’re repeating.

Unless you add a Mastercard to your Google Pay account, because Google purchases Mastercard data directly for ad targeting purposes. So he's being very misleading here, likely deliberately. They don't directly share it with the rest of Google, but indirectly your Google Pay data is still laundered through shady Mastercard deals to Google's ad behemoth anyway. Google Pay -> Data laundered through Mastercard -> Google Ads

Fool me once, fool me twice, ... Before trusting them with your financial data, just remember the long list of broken promises they did before! for example: * Gmail that was supposed to be unlimited for free for ever until they reached dominance; * same with google photo unlimited storage; * Google music that suggested you upload all your musique; * Android that is more and more closed and limited years after years; * The Google cars secretly collecting wifi data * The "don't be evil" not annoyed to create a censured search engine for China * The geolocation data that was deceptively recorded and kept, and provided to the police for geofencing for the US * The company that closes and blocks accounts for futile reasons without any 'human' support if don't have social media fame.
