Then don't use it. I don't use it. It's not that difficult.

This reads like cringe material from google's social media team.

Well both google and facebook get contempt and scorn from me. But then again I don't work for google or facebook so I can be somewhat objective.
So it takes peoples time, attention, and details on top of behavioral monitoring.
In contrast, Google provides me with a very competent productivity suite, a superb photo-managing software navigation, maps, aggregate traffic data,and a host of tools to actually build a business and educate myself and others.
Plus i get enterprise class security for my account and -arguably- the best web email service.
The day theres a data breach or in this case a breach of trust, im more likely to view google in a better light and give them the benefit of the doubt. Facebook gets my contempt and scorn.
