“If you’re signed in, we may combine information you’ve provided from one service with information from other services,” Whitten said.

“In short, we’ll treat you as a single user across all our products, which will mean a simpler, more intuitive Google experience,” Whitten said.

Doesn't that just makes their invasion of privacy easier and accessible to them to continue their data mining and exploiting its users..

Im aware their cash cow is ads and for the most part in regards to ad's and interests the data for that is fine, but beyond that it is crossing it's limits a little.

I don't consider it an invasion of privacy if they tell you exactly what they're doing and why they're doing it. If you don't like their privacy policy, you don't have to use their services. There are viable alternatives.
