Google is scary. Soon Google will achieve semi monopoly in its ability to develop certain kinds of advanced machine learning / AI and analyze human behavior, due to exclusive access to vast amounts of data. I would prefer crucial advances in these disciplines to be described in detail in publicly available papers, with open implementation, by academic researchers, rather than outlined in announcement and mostly closed/proprietary, for the benefit of shareholders. Evernote-like data is certainly a good addition. Google Glass is even scarier -- the ultimate tool for behavior analysis.
