Well the fact that google is tracking our keystrokes in their search box came as a surprise to me. So the original comment was definitely informative and useful to me (and actionable). It's kind of sneaky no? I'm not making a political statement, I'm just genuinely creeped out a bit at the idea. Stupid that I didn't see this I should add. Considering I'm a programmer who knows how to do that with javascript, but for whatever reason it never occurred to me to do it or that others are doing it.
