Why Google scares me

As you can see in this screenshot above, Google is reading my e-mail. Yes, it has been known for a long time that Google uses your e-mail content and searches in order to sell your data to advertisers, but that doesn't lessen the shock of being reminded with an intrusive pop-up.

Where does Google draw the line? Google has become so dangerously integrated into our lives, to the point where it seems that they truly have us over a barrel. Perhaps one day you'll get a message saying "You wrote 'Google sucks' in your message, but this violates our updated terms of agreement. Your data will now be deleted. Have a nice day."

Or not. But hey, did you know that this post is hosted on Blogger, which was purchased by Google? 'Cause it is.
