GOOG certainly doesn’t care either, as they really don’t need secret, ill-gotten font data. Like 80% of Internet use is using the browser they wrote and most sites already have their ad tracking JS running.
Just thought it relevant that the popular opinion here about it is in direct contradiction of what Google is saying. Persisting in believing there’s some secret malevolence at play here is not surprising, but it’s not disprovable, so it is fair to say it’s a matter of faith rather than of fact.
As I understand it, Google wants to "organize the world's data": that means all of it, secret, public, private, legal, illegal, ill-gotten and freely handed over. There's no "malevolence", Google is not a person. It's an organization and hoovering up data is its raison d'etre. Unless regulators force it to do otherwise, it will gather and store data.
