Google has given me a number of free services which have greatly
simplified the way I live my life.  If that is a crime, then so be it.
 I assume that they use my data.  The fact is, I attempt not to put
any data that I really care about in any form on Google services.
Most of my data, however, is not sensitive.  Sure, they can infer a
lot about me based on some habits of mine and who I communicate with,
but I make ti difficult for them to track me.  I utilize a lot of
software that prevents them from data mining me as an individual...
