1: Google’s entire business model includes selling your data and activity and advertise to you based on that. They have been sued for lying about this and had to settle.

2: Yes, this is directly stated in the setup screen for devices as on by default, which you can opt-out from then or at any time.

3: Let’s get mad at them for doing that when they actually do it.

4: Not sure there are many “rabid” users anymore, or at least here anyway. But there’s a difference between defending a company and flat out calling bs on an bs accusation.

I do not understand why people like making up reasons to hate on a corporation when there are so many other legitimate reasons to hate that corporation instead.
