Oh, bugger off. Just don't think about it, and use it. The advantages are great, so why think about the disadvantages? So what if your mail gets read? It certainly won't be done by a live person, and as long as don't plan any terrorist attacks, you can safely assume noone will do anything to or with your mail.

Fact of the matter is - you said it yourself - It's MY mail.
Also, there's a lot of laws that effect mail and content and those are wrapped around timeframes, etc.
I am making an informed choice, by not using gmail. That's all.

Yes, exactly.
I assume that those subscribing to gmail already know the benefits, thus was giving the counter.
