There is nothing to be accountable for. You are not forced to use their service, you do so on your own free will, knowing the repercussions.. Why is PERSONAL accountability bad to you?
Unless the german company, and the EU company makes no money....
Google wont go bankrupt, they will just backrupt those buisnesses and leave, you guys lose tax revenue from the employees, google continues to offer its services..
Win win for google, lose lose for you.
UK law also has a similar provision in the UK's E-Commerce Regulations (scroll down to Minimum information to be provided). Google does not comply, I talked to a Google employee who told me, something like, that it was not convenient/efficient and that I should use a web form.
I don't like putting questions via web form since I don't get to keep a copy as I do when I send email.
You guys have different definitions of "comply" as the rest of the world I assume.
The email address of the service provider must be given. It is not sufficient to include a 'contact us' form without also providing an email address.
They provide an email address, so they comply. The law does not say that a human has to reply to them.
No the issue is that you are getting a free service, which you obviously feel is superior to other free services, yet that is not enough for you. It not as though they are forcing you to use their services.
Well from the article it is possible to cause it to "forget" the memory so it is understandable why some people see it and others dont see it at the same time.

Can you point to the law where it specifically states that the company has to reply individually to each email by a human?
Those laws are fine, and totally irrelevant to the discussion.

They DO provide contact information.
That wont matter if google leaves Germany.. It is win win for them, lose lose for the germans.
Then take your personal information elsewhere, you dont have to use their service.

This law does not "protect" anyone. BTW we have strong consumer laws, but they actually protect people, not just try to annoy corporations.
That is not the point at all... This has nothing to do with uses personal data at all. This has to do with greedy users.

So now thinking is a crime?
I doubt that, besides the fact that it is a subjective term.. But nice way to distract from the german stupid law.
If it costs you 2 dollars to get that 1 dollar you do.
I am sure google does not claim it does anything.. Yes, it is in their terms, they dont claim anything.
He answered the previous posters question. The question was not about any specific laws, dont be so obtuse.
I think you just proved his point.
Unless the cost to fight is 9 billion, the the cost to license is 8 billion.
If the hard work resulted in VALID patents.
When I was young we did not call crap like windows 8 actual products.
Well Microsoft, that is because you hurt yourself from other things more than the layoffs in 2009.
Actually it is very descriptive. It remembers the last charge cycle and begins to memmic it which is different from the system just plateauing.

Prove it. If you cannot prove something you should not present it as fact, but instead opinion.
