I don't intend on dealing with corrupt governments any time soon, so I'm not too worried about Google giving out my GMail info during such an occurrence. :)

Don't be so foolish to think it's going to stop with something of this scale. Next time it won't be a corrupt government, it will be your ex-wife, your boss, your insurance company, your landlord or anyone else who wants to put the screws to you in one way or another.
This sets a VERY bad precedent if Google gives in that easily.

Maybe Google just doesn't like government corruption. You're drawing this out to its unnatural conclusion based on Google's decision on a very specific condition.
Also, I'm not married, I don't work, I don't pay insurance, and I live with my parents, so none of your examples apply to me. I love Google and I do nothing illicit with my GMail account. I fully welcome our Google Overlords.

So...what you're telling us is that you plan to remain single, jobless and in your parents' house for the rest of your life? :)

"Maybe Google just doesn't like government corruption."
I think you got it backwards, buddy.
Regardless, that philosophy is extremely flawed. It's the same argument as "I've got nothing to hide, I don't care if they record my private phone conversations." If you really feel that way, then you clearly haven't done your homework and you haven't thought it through all the way.

"Maybe Google just doesn't like government corruption. "
Wrong. Google are releasing the IP addresses of anonymous journalists who are fighting against the government level corruption of the Turks & Caicos Islands. This could result in threats against the lives of the journalists who have fought to free the island from corruption.
