If you're running one of these you're probably using ad block so google already doesn't care about you. What google does care about is agregate searches made. With this in hand you can easily find some interesting data that could be used to identify information that would be valuable.
There's always a way to make money and google has enough currently that it can explore all of these venues

Google search has been in use by startpage [1], the search engine that claims not to track users, for quite sometime. I use it the most, followed by using DuckDuckGo.
And if so, why should Google play along, and allow their search API to be used like this?
Just wondering.
