They took away the ability to show all events in chronological order? Ugh. I was trying to stay away from G+ for ethical reasons, but this... This might just drive me back.

Not only that, but Tweetdeck seems to just be throwing random updates my way.

They could at least leave the API as is...

I'm very curious about the differences you think exist between the two services regarding ethics.
It's the whole Real Name debacle. It's been debated to death, though.
Facebook actually has the same policy.
Again, when Facebook bans someone, it doesn't destroy the rest of their online identity. And before you quote Google's policy on it, best do a search on the web for how it was actually handled.
My comment isn't defending Google. I'm pointing out to you that by your standard, both companies are unethical, and there is really no reason to trust either. Just in case you didn't know Facebook's stance on real names...
You have never heard me claim that Facebook was ethical.
