> Google Analytics tracks you across different sites AFAIK.

See that's the thing, I keep seeing this asserted but when I search for any evidence, I can't find a single article that demonstrates this to be true.

If you own multiple sites you can enable analytics across them, but that's all.

And if Google wants to know what you're visiting to build advertising profiles, they have so many options -- not just Fonts, but DNS, Chrome, ads... it's not like GA by itself is making any substantive difference. But again, just because it could be used for this doesn't mean it is.

So I don't get how this is actually helping. I worry it's a distraction from actual achievements.
