Why should they supply you anything for free?

If you're implying that I'm suggesting Google should give me something for free, I'm not.

Just orienting this "service" in a way that shows that the users are, freely, giving something to Google.

I didn't mean to come off as short.

This seems to be a mutually beneficial service. The users stand to gain as can be seen from the testimonials here http://www.google.org/powermeter/demoproject.html

So the users aren't giving away anything freely.

Google obviously gains , with hard data about consumer usage.
