Irrelevant. Most users have no idea how to practically avoid GA, or even worse: they do not understand the dangers in enriching a terrorist company with lots of user-behavioral data.

I would not be concerned about leaking my behavioral data, if that was the only thing that Google could get at, but that is not the case. Google uses <insert_random_person_here>'s data against <insert_another_random_person_here>, and that is made more and more possible with each case of a website using GA.
