Google runs the interwebs. No secret about that.
In January 2014, nearly 56% of all surfers used Chrome. 27% Firefox. 10% IE.

So they have unfathomable amounts of data about user interactions with every website - even when Analytics is not installed.
This is what happens when any single entity (be it Google or the NSA or whoever) has too much access to too much data. The power they wield is limitless.
Welcome to the new age.
