You still have the option of not using Google's services, and they even offer a clean way to purge your entire profile.

That's a point most people don't seem to remember. I can see what Google has on me, for the most part at any rate, and opt to destroy it. Contrast that with FB and I really have no clue what data they have on me.

I would think Google collects plenty of data behind the scenes which they do not share with you, like Facebook.
