    I really don’t get users.

    Google already has the capacity to be doing this level of analysis on your data that you gave them to host for their own private internal purposes.

    But we should reject the opportunity to have that aggregate picture of our data turned back over to ourselves to make the most of what’s already the case?

    This really reminds me of the saying “nothing about the situation has changed, only your information about the situation has changed.”

      They’re marketing this as a personal salesbot to advertisers now. That’s what changed.
