Whoring Out to Google

Over the last few months Google has released a bunch of new shit, namely Calendar, Sheets they both also seem to be cool with Safari (currently my browser of choice, though FireFox has been looking a lot better to me lately) Anyway, I'm also a card carrying ACLU member who is always concerned with privacy, so the question is do I whore myself out to Google and all of their web goodness, or do I keep my stuff, my stuff and not have some of the neato features?
