It would be nice to have full transparency on this element from Google , perhaps publish the data that's being shared between said apps , a weekly downloadable report would be fine to start to understand just what is being generated that needs to be anonymized, pseudonymized.
Or do you think that once a user sees that information they would then question the need to continue to use apps which collect such personalized info in the first place...
You are replying to your own post genius.
And are you seriously now wondering "oh i wish Google would be more transparent with their data collection"?!
