There are certainly ways that tech companies operate in a Hollywoodesque manner. Apple trying to assert DMCA against jailbreaking phones is a great example. It's YOUR phone. You paid $600 for it (either over time, or up front). You should be able to do whatever you want with it. You've made a very poor case with Google privacy policies, though.
