If you periodically have to turn off checkboxes in products to feel your data is better protected:

  • it’s really not
  • just move to something else

That way you also stop sponsoring said company.

Criticizing is easy, try offering solutions as well. If there are people that use Google's slew of products, what's an alternative they can move to?
