MODERATORS
You do know you can enter into your Google settings and disable all tracking and targeting, right? And you can ask them to delete all information they already hold on you.
Yes. However, it's an assumption they honor those requests and don't try to track you anyway.
Plus Google isn't the only company trying to do individualized targeted advertising.
Agreed you have to trust them. However, I suspect GDPR punishments keep them to their word.
