Free Isn't Freedom: How Silicon Valley Tricks Us
So what’s in Google's mysterious contract? What have we unknowingly all agreed to whenever we are using Google services, knowingly or not?
What Google Gets: In return, we get to record everything you do 24 hours a day—the questions you ask, the purchases you make, the websites you visit, the videos you watch, the places you go, the people you communicate with, the emails you write—everything.
The fine print: We get to keep these records and to use the information we’re collecting about you to connect you with businesses we think might want to sell you things, so you should expect to get advertisements from these businesses. We might also share this information with the, uh, intelligence community, because they helped us figure out how to set up this whole scam in the first place.
