They ARE strongly encrypted, just in a way that nobody _but_ Google will be able to get at them.

If someone else broke into their system and took all the post-processed data, they would be able to feed it into their ad network targeting, which would destroy Google's competitive advantage that they're the only one who knows everything about you.
