> While Google isn't a trustworthy company by any means, I can be reasonably certain they aren't looking into what I'm doing. In what way are Google not a trustworthy company in your view? Expecting that they'll be looking into what I'm doing is exactly what leads me to consider them untrustworthy so I'm just curious what else you're thinking of.

  I thought the outcome of these leaks were that Google realized that the NSA is tapping into their data and dark fiber and started encrypting these?
