Google to turn on activity tracking for many users who turned it off

I bring up that group because I'm a part of that group and work with people who have been targeted with subpoenas for simply investigating a company. This is something that effects me personally and the work I do that's deeply intended to help and inform the public. That you don't think protecting that group is a critically important thing for everyone is very telling.

What's exhausting is having to keep up to date with how to continue turning off these awful "features" and arguing about how we don't want these features for the billionth time.

Again you take the worst-case interpretation, with a dash of ad hominem, to help you climb that moral high ground you seem fond of.

> about how we don't want these features

So you speak for the whole of Google's customer base?

You clearly have no intent on trying to understand why people have issues with this, so I'm done here.

Best, friend.
