Could be said an easy way to get your Adsense payments, or maybe it gives them chance to spy on where you're buying your seo from

Already they are having Google pay in india. It's may be their next plan. But as you said they definitely will do spying

What other data can they mine?

This could take a spin for the worst...
Lose your YouTube access then lose your bank account funds?...
No thank you.

I will never trust google with my bank details you never know what kind of data it wishes to suddenly harvest

"Google does not intend to sell customers’ data, Caesar Sengupta, an executive at the firm, told the Journal."

And I'm the Queen of England.

Where is Google based out of? I smell a monopoly. Which is a problem with the big tech companies.

You definitely cant trust Google. Reasons are too many. I already switched from Gmail to other email providers.

Even just recently I saw a video where people were getting their whole Google accounts suspended for putting 10 emojis in a Youtube livestream when the host was asking for it.

I'm no English scholar, but if they said they do not "intend" on selling it, that's not a yes/no. That's just saying it's not apart of their current intentions.

I'm sure people didn't intend to start a drug habit & ruin their lives.. but it happens every day.

They intend to sell anything they can and have been intending since September 4, 1998.

If you have given over your mobile to google for anything chances are they already know more about you and your spending habits more so if you have linked that to a credit card or your bank card.

The problem with google they never really see any project through everything gets dropped. So will be interesting to see if this does actually happen and for how long.

That's like Russian Standard Bank made on 'Vodka' money.
Maybe DuckDuckGo Bank is the next

Your Bank Balance.
Then it will show you Ads based on your Balance.

Your Bank Balance.
Then You will see Ads based on the balance.

Yeah I mean what else besides that
First, it's everything we search/etc.
Then, they began listening to us & tracking/etc.
Now, it's everything we buy/etc.

What else can they mine?

 

[t2van]

Your Bank Balance.
Then You will see Ads based on the balance.

This happens now based on how old your phone is and where and what you are browsing.

Did you not know some holiday firms will adjust prices based on how old your computer / phone / browser is? Sometimes it pays to book holidays using an older platform...

If you get a chance to see some the marketing information companies can get their hands on it will shock you.

Some of the replies on here do you guys not know much about IM... or how IM is based off of the old ways of collecting data and what is out there?

It started with linking your home phone to your credit card. So credit card companies could sell that info to junk mail firms targeting letters and offers based on your spend habbit. As technology has improved its gotten worse - wake up people.

Guess people think the adverts they see on TV has nothing to do with what you been searching or speaking about ... LOL

It's not that far, Google Assistant will tell you Account Balance. Also, suggest you the Shopping Budget.

Even it will show Product Ads based on the Money in the Account.

Google already reads your emails, tracks every search you make, every website you view, ever order you place and using GPS every store you visit, ever road you drive on, who you talk to, what time you wake up and go to bed...etc. Lets just give them the ability to also track each and every purchase you make too. Ugg, too much, too big!

Nice, bank balance targeting.
