In light of Google's recent stance towards free speech, I will show you how to abandon Google and embrace freedom. Here I will post software alternatives to remove Google from your life entirely. Remember, Google's sole revenue is from ads and removing yourself from their adstream both by blocking their ads and by not allowing them to track your activity to sell to advertisers hurts them!
>Google Search Use DuckDuckGo. If you cannot find what you are looking for, don't use Google as a failsafe! Instead use Startpage that automatically proxies your searches and uses Google. If you don't like DDG, then just use Startpage entirely.
>Email Protonmail or cock.li.
>Google Drive Use mega.nz, or better yet, run your own cloud server using OwnCloud.
>Google Docs/Pres/Etc Use libreoffice.
>Google Maps Use OpenStreetMap
>YouTube Go to your subscriptions on your profile and download the RSS copy of them, then migrate all that to an RSS reader to keep track of your subscriptions and use either hooktube or newpipe on Android to watch videos from your subscriptions. After this, delete your YouTube account.
>Browser Use Firefox or one of its many forks such as Waterfox or GNU/Icecat. Pale Moon is considered compromised because of the author's pozzed attitude towards Ad Nauseam and adblockers in general.
>Blocking Google Analytics and other Google assets Use uBlock for this or Ad Nauseam if you want to strike back at Google by wasting ad revenue with false clicks. Then use uMatrix and decentraleyes to avoid Google CDN.
Most importantly - delete your Google account. If you use an Android phone do not sign into it with a Google account and either disable all G-Apps, or root and remove them entirely. For a Play Store alternative, use F-Droid which provides free and open source applications.
>DuckDuckGo Look at its history. They'll sell your data without blinking. >mega.nz It's long seized by NZ gov't, welcome to honeypot. >uBlock uBlock Origin
Gabriel Hill
Seems fine. Open source, is on F-Droid, however not all open source applications are equal with privacy so keep that in mind.
>Look at its history. They'll sell your data without blinking. If you can provide proof then I'll strike it from future recommendations. If you personally despise DDG, then as I said use Startpage.
>It's long seized by NZ gov't, welcome to honeypot. As I said, it's better to run your own cloud solution using OwnCloud.
Alexander Phillips
Not at all other than of course for the fact that it downloads the APKs from Google
Oliver Watson
No email provider is 100% trustworthy. Best idea is to build your own mailserver at home on on a vps somewhere.
Stop using anything Mozilla based, *fox, palememe etc - let these bastards die.
For web browsing use either a webkit based browser or opera - yes opera is blink/chromium based and could be a chink botnet but I'd rather have the chinks know my pr0n habits than goolag.
David Martinez
>he needs a guide to stop using a service
Henry Baker
Blink is from Google. It's already compromised from the start.
ageofshitlords.com/Sup Forums-launched-war-Yes, it's fucking working Sup Forumsents! Google is issuing refunds to advertisers because of fake traffic and fake clicks.
>Google Issuing Refunds to Advertisers Over Fake Traffic, Plans New Safeguard >Some advertisers question level of refunds, want more details about fraudulent traffic
If you haven't already, install AdNauseam. It's a fork of uBlock Origin and it does everything that uBO does PLUS it sends fake clicks to advertisers and trackers and it confuses them and it fucks the people who pay for ads. The net effect is that advertising is becoming less and less profitable and people who pay for this shit are losing fate in the system.
Also where is the alternative to Google translate?
Your attempt is pretty pathetic OP, try harder.
Adrian Hughes
DuckDuckGo is just objectively shit. Are there any better alternatives?
Nicholas Barnes
its called clickfraud, which historically has legal implications. I'm sorry you have such a hateboner for Google, but it's not worth getting in trouble over

Google has diversified a long time ago Sup Forumsack. What is your clicking going to do about their cloud services and google apps revenue?
Landon Bailey
Gutting a cancerous system of intrusive and even malicious ads is a bad thing.
Moishe mah boi!
Blake Lopez
putting the "don't be evil" mantra back into google's portfolio?
Wyatt Lee
AdNauseam is actually working and sites are getting ad revenue pulled.
Luke Butler
You have no proof that adnauseam is actually effective. Fake clicks have been around forever. That chart is more likely the cause of pajeet click botting his own scam website for money. The kind of person likely to even know what adnauseam is already has uBlock origin and is happy.
Ethan Howard
how do I automatically replace youtube with hooktube, I was looking for a browser extension that does that for me, but no luck so far.

Google services are superior to all that filth in the OP.
The "selling my data" meme is worth the convenience bruhs.
Aaron Turner
It goes beyond privacy. Google makes the vast majority of its revenue from ads. By choosing to use something else they lose money. I personally couldn't give a rat's ass who knows what porn I watch, but I hate Google as a company and would love to stop using their services and prevent them from making money from me.
Colton Torres
This.
Brody Mitchell
Not using their services because you don't like the services or google's stance on privacy is fine, but why do you hate them as a company so much?
Brandon Collins
Because they're more powerful than some nationstates and that is dangerous.
Cameron Miller
SJW policies, being the effective gate keeper to the internet and providing significant bias because of it.
Brayden Price
They're more powerful than most nations. We are taking about a corporation that effectively can change public opinion based on what they put on their front page: SOPA.
Joshua Martin
Whatever happened to SOPA anyway? What was the deal with it and why was it memed so much?
Ian Sanchez

I find yandex pretty good. They are probably botnet too.

Henry Hall
>Use DuckDuckGo
And like that you have lost me. But to be fair, you said Google "alternatives", not "good" alternatives.
>Use mega.nz
Sure, if you like the idea of getting a knock at your door. Otherwise you have some nice suggestions, but allow me to add on to them, because this is only going to get worse before it gets better.
If installation is a problem for you, it's as easy as looking up installation guides on Youtube. Best part of it? Most of it is free, no more annoying updates that holds your computer hostage when you have more important things to do, most software is free, software community is faster at finding flaws and vulnerabilities by design and so on. Best of all? No OS owned by Google.

If they did there wouldn't be so many posts about it but unfortunately their autism gets triggered too hard that once they read that one suggestion they immediately sperg out and post a reply without continuing to read.
Alexander Peterson
>she thinks not using Google's services is enough to hurt Google
You're still supporting Google if you interact with anyone else using Google services. Might as well never reply to gmail addresses, use sites with reCAPTCHA available, or sites that enable their web crawler. Good luck with that.
Andrew Collins

I have a Windows Mobile. Edge is my browser. I mostly use Bing search and maps. Office comes pre-installed and is good. I still watch the occasional YT video either using Tubecast or in the broswer. I use Duo Security instead of Google Authenticator for 2FA (Two-factor authentication). The "no-apps" mantra didn't affect me, I missed out on Snapchat, but oh well I'm all the luckier for that. Everything I need is available for Windows Mobile.

Just unlock your bootloader and install a rom like LineageOS Its not that hard at all, unless you are a faggot and bought a phone you didnt have ANY freedom at all over.
Wyatt Williams
just put "nsfw" before youtube in the url and itll let you watch it (nsfwyoutube) if you find you cant watch it in your country, replace tube with "pak" after (youpak)
