Yeah I have seen a bunch of articles hitting lately about Google... They exist for data collection and then selling and/or using that data for their benefit or whoever pays them the most.

Privacy is the real concern, invasion of...

@GeneralBrnovich Thanks for looking into this... I believe you are barely scratching the surface with Google’s invasion of all American’s privacy. I realized the other day, that they HAVE to be literally listening to us at all times. My wife called and made a dentist appointment, a little while after the call, I decided to open google maps to see where they were located. I realized after only having the first 3 numbers of their 4 digit street address entered in, that Google maps was suggesting the entire address.
This is no place I have ever been before, never been on the street, it is not even in the same city I live in. I have never even searched for it on the computer, a friend of my daughter goes to the dental school and gave us a business card that we got the phone number she called that day. It is 18 miles away from my house and on a street I cant even remember knowing was a street name anywhere besides Disneyland, before I heard their address... Utopia...
Please tell me, HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE, they can guess the address I am going to enter from 3 random numbers of a street address?? Some people might think that is pretty cool... I am NOT one of them.
I quit using their search feature months ago, when I realized how completely different the results were on duckduckgo.com... I realized I was only seeing what Google wanted me to see and ironically, the links they omitted (that duckduckgo showed) was what I had been searching for... That is stuff I expect to happen in Iran, China or Russia, not supposed to in America.
