> And we're part of long-term collaborations with industry bodies like the W3C on initiatives like privacy enhancing technologies that provide personalized experiences while limiting access to people's information

This sounds really scary actually. It's like a big oil company lobbying with a government for 'initiatives enhancing environment preservation'.

Just like we have green-washing I feel like with Google (FLoC)[1] and Facebook doing a 'regulatory capture' [0] of W3C and such doing something like 'privacy-washing'.
