Google is a good services provider, but we're giving them too much power. Why do I need to share my privacy to a huge database that someday (and somehow) will end up in U.S. Government hands? Facebook, Twitter, MySpace and basically anything you need to log on in order to view content are unnecessary tracking sites (well, not Twitter but you get the idea).
Not that my privacy is relevant to any huge corporation, mind you. But precisely for that reason there's not need for me to share that data to a paranoiac government. If I have to uninstall Java, run privacy plug-ins on Firefox till my system collapses and run adult sites on virtual machines they will reset every time I shut them down, then so be it.
