Most people who truly care about privacy wouldn't use google products at all, including their remote storage or whatever you're using that makes this an inexpensive add-on.

There are plenty of affordable remote storage and vpn services that aren't google that have much better track records on privacy and don't owe $7,000,000 in fines for an antitrust case.

It's nice that you're saying people believe they're super smart and make 4chan style noises because they write that they don't like google for a privacy product, but I have to tell you: you do not need to give yourself a reach-around. Your genitals are on the front of your body.
