However it does not remove Google's control, e.g., ability to pull the plug

"Paternalism" is a belief by developers that they "know better" than the computer owner what choices should be made for someone else's computer
For example, pre-installing software, or connections to remote servers, and enabling these choices by default
Paternalism dismisses any idea of personal autonomy
Providing a computer user with choices rather than "defaults" could mean loss of control by the developer and any associated revenue
