RE: Stop using google! Keep your privacy safe when using search engines! Oh wait, it is unavoidable to protect your privacy from google....Nevermind!
I will give it a substancial read , I was using mostly privatelee to search , showed the finger to chrome as soon as it emerged , still hate that and use adblock , some other menial apps too , but probably am "compromised" as shit , tried tor and basically almost went paranoid at that point :D . Then scratched most of the bullshit an went back to youtubing for the rest of my days :D , yeah cookies we carry around , and I've seen on friends pc's how much the ads are catered to what they are doing. This web business is really getting people caught in and drained by the spiders, I wouldn't be supreised if google becomes a country , they can probably buy half of Europe :D
Any recommendations are welcome , Thank you for the information Those last pieces are new to me .
Also check my 4th post and tell me what you think about the subject at hand.
And yeah we need some cyber security an people don't care they js say whatever . .

Thanks for reading! Yeah that is exactly what startpage.com is, a proxy search engine using google. What private search do you use? Good chrome is invasive! Don't worry, the majority of all of us are compromised! Yeah almost tried TOR and began to set it up but then became distracted! lol Yeah me to I hate the ads and it still happens to me and now it make sense why after my research! Yeah google is literally like Pinky and the brain except actually successful with their world domination
Your welcome, I am still researching. I would start by using an encrypted email! It is harder for me to transition since I have so many things connect to my Gmail.
Yeah I will check out your post. Thanks for reading mine!
Your welcome to any of my posts , I'm using privatelee , spelled like that , actually experimenting with search engines is a great idea, you get different results, It's also fun to se how metrics work , when you delete your cookies you will get different YT suggestions, It's like they are trying to dig into your brain :D , back to google again ,they have too much power I realised that about 5-10 years ago then aroun 3 started using adblock and maaan it's awesome , you have the remote , you have the channels , no cuts :D , but yeah pages look awesome with just space there , like they are supposed to , anytime I see a page with ads now I'm so annoyed even angry they exist , It's something about ads I hate , for me they have no place, not in their current state, with them hanging over buildings, bringing in mega malls and super markets and everybody loves it, more and more of the same, clothes ice cream and movies :| :| .
TOR is nice , I have hop in Linux but I have no experience no coding skills, no in depth computer knowledge to know how things work in reality, but privacy is a must on the internet, this is also my only downside to steemit , that and the fact it mirrors real world , so it's like second life ,
kind of surprised your post didn't get much views , but it's normal i guess :| , also you are welcome to any of my posts and any of the resteems on the "blog" although my posts are special . :D
Got some more addons on the browser for privacy ,turns out there are many ways to b compromised basically, There are some flash cookies that don't expire, your activities are logged , if you try to circumvent that you can get blacklisted as a suspect and if somebody wants to he can break in on multiple levels or just overlay your logs with activities and still find you and such and such , rabbit holes basically, also google has some public libraries that they use to rout traffic through so it's another venue , yeah communications are hard to maintain on a digital level if you don't want anyone to know about it , Android is shit, for the most part,
Yes, Add-blocker is a great one. Also I have been hearing about one called something badger, it removes tracker cookies that are placed on you computer!
Wow, I didn't not know their were flash cookies that never expired; That is essentially like malware or a virus! Yeah , I know some site block you from accessing it if you don't allow the tracker cookies, etc.
Yeah, google is becoming so powerful that they are almost on par or above any other internet or computer related entity! It is freaky. Yeah I wouldn't trust android now even if it was the best!
