Oh. So if you go through some particular combinations of settings then maybe you can find a way to request that Google reduce the ways they use your personal information. I guess that makes it totally cool and fine? I don't think so.
Much better to use Firefox and avoid Google ever getting that info in the first place. That way you don't have to constantly play whack-a-mole with deliberately confusing 'privacy settings' which don't even fix the problem anyway.
