We will move to a cloud based model and all your data will be owned by the cloud providers. Google, Apple and Microsoft are already ensuring this.
From a Google filing in court about Gmail privacy:
>Indeed, “a person has no legitimate expectation of privacy in information he voluntarily turns over to third parties.” Smith v. Maryland, 442 U.S. 735, 743-44 (1979).
> it's "inconceivable" that someone using a Gmail account would not be aware that the information in their email would be known to Google.
Also referenced the scroogled ad campaign to support that users know and accept this behavior.
The fact that your data is stored on a cloud provider doesn't mean that that provider owns your data. For example, from Google's TOS:
"You retain ownership of any intellectual property rights that you hold in that content. In short, what belongs to you stays yours." [0].
The context of the quote from the court documents you referenced [1] is that Gmail inevitably needs to be able to process your emails in order to send them (and potentially filter out the spam). It is not, as you seem imply, about violating your privacy.
Zero knowledge platforms are a fairly simple solution to this... You just have to be willing to fork over a little money instead of letting them monetize your data.
