Deleting legalistic sections of their privacy policy is not to make things easier to understand, it's to allow them to invade your privacy even more effectively, without worrying about legal backlash. The Bush administration did this by instituting the Patriot Act, because they couldn't just delete parts of the Constitution. But Google can just delete sections of their policies because (on the surface) they are a private corporation. Most of us know better than to think that they have no affiliation with the intelligence communities of our government though. Contractors break every law in the book by proxy and are given immunity and billions of dollars for their services. That's the american way.
