I agree that's a possibility, but I'd rather the chance some of those accounts get linked than give my data to Google.

The reason I did that wasn't privacy in the first place, so any privacy benefits are a bonus.

I did it so I can easily block spam from a business, easily 'unsubscribe' to any list without jumping through hoops, and can also see which businesses are not playing nice by sharing my data.
