This google tracking everything is like a blackpill once you really get into it.

^You can "delete" as much as you want, won't change the fact that it's not really deleted (at least on their side)

I was freaked out by the locations data with accompanying pictures I took years ago on a different phone than my current one.

All tied to my google account, for sure if you use Android like me you're fucked.

I've been using Dogpile.com ever since word got out that Google "fixes" its search results to show what it wants to show. At Unz.com, Steve Sailer has been documenting this, and here is a post on what Google does with race and crime statistic.

But the reason I'm reviving this old thread is because Dogpile.com is no longer working. It's been down for days, which is odd for any Web site.

This isn't just my browser or ISP either; the Web site "isitdownrightnow" says their site isn't working.

I hate to indulge in conspiracy theories, but Dogpile.com is a big competitor to Google, so I wonder if something fishy isn't going on. Anyone in the tech industry know anything?

Check out this thread on reddit, it seems to cover pretty much everything on how to get Google to stop tracking you:

Search Engines: DuckDuckGo and Qwant. You can use a VPN on top of these and DuckDuckGo has an extension for Safari (and maybe Google Chrome?) as well. Unfortunately, no matter which search engine you use, even if they don't track or record you, it looks like Google is the one indexing everything because you will always have your search results deliberately altered when you, say,...

image search for something like "american inventors," "european people history," "european people art," or "white man white woman." Go ahead, try it. I'm a miscegenator so I don't mind the images but even I find it creepy that faceless corporations thousands of miles away get to secretly decide what I see.

This also happens with things like Alexa.

Email Services: Protonmail and Tutanota. They are both good but I prefer Protonmail myself because it is based in Switzerland whereas Tutanota is based in Germany. All companies are subject to the laws of the country in which they reside and I view Switzerland as a safer bet. I've heard that Yandex is good as well if you want a casual alternative to Gmail. Yandex is a Russian company and they also have a search engine.

Web Browsers: You can also look into "secure internet/web browsers" if you do not want to use any of the major ones. As with email services, I recommend checking which legal jurisdiction the company resides in as that country may still force certain things upon them such as forcing them to disclose IP addresses of users in the interests of ferreting out "hate speakers" or something Orwellian like that.

Damn this is hardcore!

I don't do anything illegal or high profile so I just want to avoid Antifa and other SJW goblins, which means using duckduckgo and brave for wrongspeak and wrongthink commonly seen on this forum
Avoiding the triple letter agencies is hopeless for a commoner I suppose

very good and somehow related post
