Consumers won’t be able to opt out of the changes, which take effect March 1. And experts say the policy shift will invite greater scrutiny from federal regulators of the company’s privacy and competitive practices.

By now, Google knows more about me than my own mother does. I honestly don't know what more information that can take from me, so long as the advertising isn't intrusive nor the information sold and distributed but kept secure (as most people trust Google to do), then I don't mind too much and kind of thought they were doing it already.

I don't worry too much about Google knowing all they want to know about me, due to the reason cited by XKCD.
