Well, that isn't nearly all of the information. That is what they say, just like FB says they they don't abuse your privacy.

They have already shown that they are willing to violate people's privacy. That is useful information.
So if you're not going to take it straight from the horses mouth, what then is your complaint and how can anyone ever hope to resolve it?
This isn't personal, I just find it increasingly odd when people in online discussions gripe about company not doing x, is then shown clear examples of x and coping back with "that's what they want you to believe" or when asking for an example, is given one and backpedal saying "that doesn't meet these new criteria that weren't up for discussion from the start"
It boggles my mind.
If you won't offer concessions when evidence comes straight from the source what evidence will you?
And I find it insanely naive that anyone would believe what comes from the horses mouth, especially when they don't provide any evidence. Companies say things all the time that aren't true, and I find it silly to believe giant PR groups.
I'm not saying that they violate your privacy, I'm only saying that we don't know what they do with your data, thus we don't know if they protect your privacy or not.
My complaint is easily solvable: Allow me to set up and use a phone/laptop in such a way that they can't violate my privacy.
