> You can sell ads without targeting.

You can, but that's not really what Google is selling anymore. It's certainly not the only thing Google is selling.

Unless you're making the claim that the data storage that Google uses for their data tracking isn't paid for by the targeted ad service? That if Google suddenly couldn't use that data for targeted advertising anymore that they'd still keep it around, or that none of their other services would raise in price?
