This is bad! People should think of their technology and the implications it has on their lives. Encouraging people to sleepwalk even further into 24/7 surveillance fails the "don't be evil" test in my opinion.
Call me a cynic but damn if this doesn't stuff doesn't sound creepy coming from a company whose business model is based on surveillance.
I see where you are coming from, but I think that is just fighting the inevitable. People & companies should consider the implications of technology, but that shouldn't prevent it from becoming a bigger part of our lives.
