Today I found out that google docs infects html exports with spyware, no scripts, but links in your document are replaced with invisible google tracking redirects. I was using their software because a friend wanted me to work with him on a google doc, he is a pretty big fan of their software, but we were both somehow absolutely shocked that they would go that far.

    Literally went from being my favorite company to just an unethical bag of poo for me. Hope whoever’s forcing these engineers to create privacy invading spyware eats a bag of dicks.
