Not just current content. Everything that can be read from historical web captures also.

Assume facebuck, twitter, linkedin, reddit, etc. are also hoovered.

Assume that linkages between your logins and aliases are being connected also.

Oh, and of course, google already "owns" all content you've posted (emails, photos, videos). Microsoft cloudy services are also owned.
