Well, as much as we try to avoid deliberately using ‘g’, it is so tied to just about everything we do on our phones and computers, they still end up with way too much info and data on us. Privacy? Pffffttttttt! Long lost dream unless you go completely off grid and contact no one. And then a drone appears overhead. :-) Brave new world? Ugly new world.
Google is not the problem. Mostly, they just pass on info that helps advertisers promote to you the things you are looking for.
Where privacy concern would be more critical is when you go to the VOTING BOOTH. They ask you which ‘party’ you are.
It’s none of their business. Last time I voted, they asked, I told them, and they gave me a ballot with only 3 ‘issues’ to vote on. No candidates or judges.
WHY do they have DIFFERENT ballots for different parties ?
There is an add-on for Firefox called “Google Container”, which sandboxes any google links...
Seems legit, so far. Been using it for about a month.
