Lea Kissner is back at her alma mater, the University of California at Berkeley, armed with a crisp gray blazer, a slide deck, and a laptop with a 'My Other Car Is A Pynchon Novel' sticker on it. Since graduating in 2002, she's earned a PhD at Carnegie Mellon in cryptography and worked her way up at Google, where she manages user privacy and tries to keep things from breaking. She's here to tell a hall of computer science students how she did it—and also how to create privacy-protective systems at a scale that you won't find outside a handful of massive tech companies.

As a business, its common sense to actively diversify the companies you depend on as much as you can. A business should take care to avoid too much reliance on a single vendor or supplier; and so too should individuals -- even if they are a great vendor right now. It will go to 'hell in a handbasket' sooner or later; and it will be worse the more dependant you are on them.
I agree with you. I don't think google is toxic the way facebook is. But given how much reach they have, and how much I "have" to use them already; i pretty much always choose 'not google' when i can.
