That is no excuse to expose that information to a third party,
particularly a company that actively tracks people like google does.

This stalking behavior on the part of various companies, particularly
google and amazon, is not acceptable. And FWIW, this is not a privacy
issue. Stalking someone is different than just invading someones
privacy. It is a whole other level of criminal behaviors which if an
individual did such a thing in the physical world, they would simply be
arrested.
