Don't FUD* yourself.   Editors have been able to do that for decades, just 
by looking up a word in a list of words.  Or a list of phrases if you want. 
Same thing.

* FUD - Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt.

Yes, its *possible* that google snoops on everything you type, but there is 
no need for it.  While its good to stay alert, don't give yourself paranoia.

Find yourself a (few) good tech site(s), and use them to keep up with the 
latest of what security experts discover.
