    I recently was exploring through google analytics and I found this option to share google analytics data with google and other products .

    I disabled it ?

    How do you people look at it ? and what do you suggest ?

    It gets used in the benchmarking data. Thye don't disclose which sites are used for this - your site data is used as part of an average to provide the benchmarking data on sites of similar size.
    It depends how paranoid you are - I think Google have the capability to find out everything they want about your site, if they're so interested.

    It doesn't really affect us directly.. I have them enabled most of the time.

    I'm of the view that the more information you give them the better.
