Their intent is to migrate entirely away from Google to the San Francisco based InfluxData, which I guess is marginally better in some ways but seems to entirely miss the point of people's objections in spirit. Other than people's personal subjective trust of one US company over another, there's no inherent difference between Alphabet & InfluxData from a technical standpoint.
