#6I guess it's time to de-activate my FitBit account. It was nice while it lasted. I wish companies wouldn't fall prey to Google money on principle, but that money is oh so good...

I triggered account deletion a couple weeks ago when the EU announced their approval. With the 7 day deletion timer, hopefully my account was completely terminated prior to Google getting their hands on it.

I didn't stop using it, but I made a different decision about what watch to purchase because of it, because a) divesting my health data from Google's vacuum seemed wise and b) I no longer trust Google to support hardware/services long term.

#10I was about to buy a new fitbit as my current one is basically dead after 4 years. But the way Google handles things they buy doesn't inspire confidence. I guess I'll investigate others and probably end up with an Apple Watch.
