You don't think Google will give out internet data to the NSA? Google monitors everyone and uses it to build a database about you. They probably know more about you than your closest friend or significant other. I don't think that is much better. |

what purpose does having a file on > 300 million people do for a private company that doesn't sell products to all of those people? |

Google must have some reason. A lot of it is advertising. The more then know, the more they can charge for more accurate advertising. |

Google isn't handing over anything secretly. When law enforcement interferes with their customers, they tell them and it gets documented here: » www.google.com/transpare ··· ernment/Does AT&T have a similar list? |

Google is not providing internet to the public yet. Once they do we will know more.
No idea what At&t has. |

Huh? They have tons of public user data, from search history, to email, to social media, mobile data/location data from Android users, etc |
