Article: Tech Explainer: How to Disable 3 of Google’s Main Ways of Tracking Your Every Movewww.breitbart.com/tech/2023/07/11/tech-explainer-how-to-disable-3-of-googles-main-ways-of-tracking-your-every-move/I hope it is obvious that the First step is to just stop using Google... For anything and everything. Of course this will still expose you to other websites which use Google as one of their design components. Vote with your feet and go elsewhere to find what you want. It is up to you to exercise your OPSEC/PERSEC common sense. It is a jungle out there and you are the prey. TWP

To expand on the topic: Google’s “Web Integrity API” sounds like DRM for the webarstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/07/googles-web-integrity-api-sounds-like-drm-for-the-web/Please, if you use Google, including any of its products, take a serious warning and stop doing so. In other words, Run Away Fast. There are far better options than Google. I recommend the Pale Moon browser, which is a fork of Firefox. If your workflow does not allow you to drop Google, then at least isolate yourself behind a computer which is ONLY used for Google and DOES NOT contain your personal identity data. Yes, I admit that is difficult... But how much risk are you willing to put on your online and offline identity? If your default search engine is Google, you have a easy option to change that. The next step is to avoid any websites which use Google tools in their construction and design. "Prep like your life depends on it". Paranoia? Damn Straight It Is. TWP

Article on point: Here’s How To Keep Google From Tracking Your Movementswww.offthegridnews.com/privacy/heres-how-to-keep-google-from-tracking-your-movements/DO NOTE that Google has Many affiliated and subsidiary websites and businesses. Some of these (not all) are pointed out in the article. Google also offers Many tools for website design and development which many NOT be visible to the casual user. Remember: "Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they are not still out to get you"... If you're following this thread, then you are aware that Google et al CANNOT be trusted. So act like a Prepper and protect your online self and your Prepper friends. Do You Hear What I'm Saying? Am I shouting loud enough yet? TWP

Do You Hear What I'm Saying? Am I shouting loud enough yet? So, just to clarify, you are not a fan of Google? One thing I haven't tried is putting in a search term and seeing what the autosuggest feature of the search engine adds. So, for example, put in "Trump". Google may suggest "Trump is a monster" while Startpage might suggest "Trump will save us all". Worth a try if you have a few spare minutes.

Article: Google gets its way, bakes a user-tracking ad platform directly into Chromearstechnica.com/gadgets/2023/09/googles-widely-opposed-ad-platform-the-privacy-sandbox-launches-in-chrome/If you use Chrome (why?), be aware of this attack on your privacy (OPSEC and PERSEC) AND the privacy of your friends and family. Please, don't buy the statement that you can "turn this off" in Chrome. The mere fact that they (Google) are trying this should be reason enough to kick Google and Chrome to the curb... Find another, safer, browser. I use Palemoon. Remember, it is a jungle out there. Not a joke. Don't Use Google. Don't use Google tools and utilities. TWP
