Yeah I don't really care about value when it comes to giving money to the guys who work with the NSA and CIA to find ways to more thoroughly spy on every user 24/7, and turned every search into "You asked for x, here's a dozen pages of what the State Department thinks you should have searched for instead"

Not to mention their genocide profiteering: https://www.mintpressnews.com/project-nimbus-billion-google-amazon-partners-israel/280087/

It’s not even about the money, it’s literally about the credit card information, and the massive amount of data linked to it.

I would pay for a lot more things if I could do it anonymously

Do they not already know who you are and what you purchase anyway? I'm wondering how much of a difference it makes.

Whether they do or not, Google doesn’t know that that person is the same person as the one who is using YouTube.

Except....

They do already. That's info you can just buy.

[-] davel@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 days ago

As I just said, whether they already do or not is beside the point.

I'd like to think they're advising on how to keep ISIS propaganda, gore / executions, child endangerment, etc, from popping up on clearnet results....

...but * sigh * , former (not ex, let's be honest lol) spooks...so, why wouldn't it include some kind of pro-employer propaganda plan, right?
