What's eye opening here?

These are basically all tech support providers. I'm not saying Google is a privacy-centric company, but this effort to enumerate subprocessors is admirable.

The internet becomes a worse place when folks criticize the superficial number rather than the intent.

The sheer number of processors. I agree and appreciate this level of detail, but do you know this for all the companies that have access to your data? I don't, so I found this enlightening.

Where else do you think TVCs come from? Keep in mind that although these are subprocessors, the Accenture, et al employees handling Google user data are red-badged and employed under Google contract terms, which explicitly dictate controls around allowed and disallowed systems and user data access.

TBH, it's not that it would be impossible for either Google or a subprocessor to conduct themselves nefariously, but I don't think it's practical or reasonable for anyone to expect that they would. Google pays Accenture, for example, >$1b/yr for services. They absolutely would not want to put that cash cow at risk.
