They go for privacy at the cost of everything else, and that's fine. But you still can't depend on its featureset. With a mailing list / newsgroup reader, there's a whole lot of little things that you'd probably like, but you can't depend on it; such things cost money, and most companies that give you stuff that cost money without charging you money are going to be selling ad space, ergo the temptation to harvest information about you. But as I said, I don't care. Google doesn't get any information about me that I'm not willing for them to get. Let 'em show me ads. And sometimes they're even useful!
