Most features here let Google scan and evaluate what you do on the web, messages, and apps.
They say it helps security, but of course it assures those features are on letting them suck in more data about the person.
A company like Google doesn't do something out of the kindness of their hearts, they do it for profit
As every other company.
Some smaller ones can take a hit for doing good. Weird, how greedier you get the more assets you have.
It's not weird. When a small company does something like this they lose users and it could damage them. Google doesn't care because they know people will use them no matter what.
