GOOG creating a base, is it accumulation or distribution? Personally I think it is distribution and actually hope for the demise of Big Data companies that take your data and then sell it.
From a moral bias sure, i wish it went down... but it will not, because morality has little to do with real life, people will continue to give their data for free, they are going to continue to be able to repackage it and sell it... and to make it worse, as computer power increases there will be even more data mining than before.

@Blerp, Have you tried Brave browser? It eliminates all ads with the result that webpages load faster. You spend 30% of your mobile time for ads so Brave eliminates this as well. The best part is that Google is out of the loop.

hey, thanks for the tip, i know Brave and i dont think it helps me because i try to pass least time possible with the phone in my hands and at the PC i think chrome is just a better browser...
Thants why google will be fine, even those few of us that dont like what is happening, still use it.. i despise social media, but still have an FB account to use as contact list.
they still have a lot of money to make and 2020 election is coming A LOT OF MONEY to the giant techs in targeted ads

@Blerp, Brave does give you BAT (Basic Attention Token) tokens if you browse the ads that it has. Brave PAYS you to look at ads if interested, this cuts out the middleman Google that does not have the interests in its users. You have to understand that when you use Chrome or other browsers on your phone the ads use 30% of your bandwidth that YOU pay for. 30% is a lot of $$$$ and also consider the time wasted on waiting for your page to load and click x to get rid of these ads.
