NSFW: Parody video shows just how extreme Google will go for Google+ users

A big NSFW warning for all of you watching this anywhere you don’t have a little privacy as College Humor shows just how far Google will go to get you on board with Google+.

Google is trying harder than ever to force people to sign up for Google Plus. And now, they’ve discovered a new strategy to do this: either you join Plus, or they’ll release your search history and all the private information they’ve learned about you over the years.

Seriously, this one is definitely not-safe-for-work and if you’re work, headphones, headphones, headphones. Vulgarity aside, this is spot-on with how a lot of us feel about the number of ways Google has pushed Google+ in our lives, sometimes with us dragging and screaming the whole way.
