Perhaps you perceive that to be, which is totally fine, but how do you actually know that? We have no clue what that value truly is to them since they won't share with us. If you are happy with what the googs get you, great (no sarcasm).
Myself, I fail to see the value being returned.
To each it's own, I'm trying to move away from Google too. I still think it's a better return than you would ever get from Facebook, Microsoft, or Amazon. There's something to be said about most people being completely happy with using Gmail, YouTube, chrome, or search with minimal complaints. For a while we even got "free" unlimited storage for photos.
Again, we have no idea of the value our data is to any of these companies because they are not transparent about it, but I agree that google does provide more than those others. Especially for me as I've eschewed FB for a long while now and have distanced myself from Amazon too.
I am all over YT though until we can get a successor. Way too much good content there.
