Why Google only then? What about Facebook? Twitter? You are saying that isolate yourself from Internet and its best services and go back in caves.

I've decided to get off PCWorld for good. I'm sick of this peurile bandwagon that you seem so intent on promoting so the backlash starts here....I'm removing you as a source from my Google News page....Byeeeeeee.

I can make it allot easier:

If you’re concerned about data privacy stop using the internet.

Companies exist to make money, plain and simple. Anything on the internet will ulimimatly be monetized. Servers and bandwidth any exactly free, some one has to pay for them.

Because this is a propaganda article paid by Microsoft and Facebook.

RE: good riddance! see yaaa..

Well now....I was thinking of saying 'Not if I see you first' but just for that I think I'll stick around and see if I can annoy you some more

You may not be able to use YouTube if you completely leave Google. Sometimes Google will threaten to cut off YouTube if you don't link your accounts.

You know they have a profile on you no matter if you delete your account. It will always be there tied to every other thing you have done on the net, so for instance if you Googled your bank and signed in, they have your account info on file, maybe not password but user name for sure, so getting away form the big G after your in is impossible, maybe a law suite to delete everything about you. And if someone else uses it and you email them your stuck again. Just go to the extreme if your wanting to get arid of google and nuke your PC, phone and everything to do with the net and go into hinding. Peace everyone!
