easily within 2 years. Its not about the email account alone but with all the connected stuff around it like skydrive, bing etc. People don't realise how much money a google/ms/apple/facebook makes from your account info.. Dataselling is like 14 cents per email adress per interest.. Say a travel company wants a list from google with people interested in travel to germany. Google can easily cough up 100.000 email adresses.. With people while logged in search for germany or watching some youtube videos.. Want a name with it? You can have it for 8 cents extra.. Want only people between 18 and 30? Pay 4 cents extra.. Only californians? Pay an extra 4 cents.

 100.000 x 0.14 = 14.00 dollars when rounded up to the smallest decimal place . Not bad google, not bad.

 

-edit math fail.. 14.000

For 1 question? Not bad at all.. Its actually in euro cents.. Now say 50 travel agencies in the US want that information for 50 countries.. And it takes google like 5 minutes to send that data.The information google has on you is more the you would think. I have no doubt they know my taste in music, have a macbook and iphone, like movies, my favorite food and know my shoe size

I know for a fact that here in the netherlands 1 database with around 1 million user data supports an entire company of 150 people..
