I do not think it is hyperbole. The Cliqz thing where they just handed user browsing behavior to a third party which they had invested in is inexcusable. Google does a ot more tracking but on the flip side I trust their security more than that of some small German startup. Some of the other incidents were overblown but the Cliqz thing shows of a company culture where user data is something which can be sold to make a profit, which is essentially what they did, and not something which is vital to protect. Yes, it was many years ago now but I have no reason to think that they cleaned up their company culture.
