Minimally necessary? What's minimal about being able to use uploaded content to promote their services? I see what you're saying and JoeD's example were very helpful, but the "promoting" part of their agreement makes me weary.

Am I wrong in assuming that Google technically has the right to create advertising using photos and videos uploaded to their cloud service? If so, that's BS and enough to make me shy away.

Not that I would care overly much if they did use any of my photos in their ads, but it's the presumptuousness and underhandedness of it that gets to me.
