Stop repeating that lie, Google does NOT sell your information. They sell YOU and Corporations the right to advertise to their customers based upon what Google knows about you.

So be careful, complain about what Google knows about you but first, be ACCURATE.

Google is a company out to make a profit (like the others) and he’s the only one who seems to be comfortable saying it. For Google to dance around the fact makes me trust them less. Just tell everyone you make all your money from ads and want to be ubiquitous so you can sell my information to corporations. I’m totally fine with that. I’ll keep watching Youtube and searching with Google Search… I just want them to be up front so I don’t feel like they’re a car salesman who “likes my face”.
