That's a good point, I have zero understanding of how privacy laws and Google's own TOS limit what they can do with old data.

To clarify, though, I'm not talking about Google straight-up selling my data, I'm talking about all the creepy in-between things like:

- parsing out the fees I pay from my financial transaction emails and selling me in an "audience" to competing banks.

- Parsing my e-commerce Return confirmations and selling it as an "ecommerce credit score" to ecommerce sites.

- Monitoring brand mentions on Google Home and selling me in an audience to advertisers.

- Selling my contact information to sites I thought I was just browsing "anonymously"
