Why is that a problem that Google knows about you? Google knows about me a lot, and I think it's a good thing, because: 1) I might be found by relevant people.

Why is that a problem that Google knows about you?
Google knows about me a lot, and I think it's a good thing, because:
1) I might be found by relevant people.
2) It adds up to my reputation, for example it may help to send email and have it delivered, because I look like a real person.
What are the downsides of Google watching you/me?
- stakent 17y agoYes, there are advantages being known online. But we are not talking about about search results. We are talking about wide and not controlled by us stream of data stored somewhere. Risks for a user? For example exploiting one's weaknesses by, in most trivial case, serving her ads or search results tailored to push her to make desired action. I, personally, prefer to build my online image by taking my own conscious actions, not by data hungry algorithm running by corporation which goal is to maximize shareholder's value.
