Okay... And if you stand by your morals, more power to you. For me, it's a worthwhile trade forfeiting my data (usually anonymised anyways) for the convenience of their free services.
I'm not ignorant. Any one who isn't aware of where G's revenue comes from has been living under a rock. The choice is clear, and if Google is making that even more obvious, I think that's a good thing.
Keep fighting the good fight, but the majority of us will keep using google because these *exclusive scoops shouldn't be a revelation to anyone.
What services do they even provide these days that you can't get better elsewhere? Worst browser these days, the search has gone completely to shit and all their web apps are dated and stale compared to alternatives.
