If you say so. I only work in IT and security.
You'd likely never know.
I'd likely never know if Google stopped logging me into the apps I use when I get a new device?
What?
No. The implication of my "comfortability" with google holding my credentials is that they can use it, or leak it. You wouldn't know that they did it. I said I don't trust them, you said "if google did pull something", I'm saying you wouldn't even know if they DID pull something. They control such a vast amount of infrastructure and resources that they could do a boatload of malicious stuff and you'd never know. Hell they do some quite malicious things with AMP, ads, pushing nonstandard shit in chrome, etc... But you do you. Give them all your shit. They won't complain. But you won't catch me in that boat.
