  1. You should use a VPN or an tracker blocker like DuckduckGo. This is the only way to slow down the information you are sending out. You might not be able to completely stop Google and Samsung from tracking you, but there's no reason to share yourself with all other data harvesting services.

  2. You have to obfuscate the info that makes it through by using multiple, unlinked Google accounts that let you put separate components of your life into separate silos.

I left Windows because of the Settings nonsense.

12 years later you rubes are still getting fucked by this garbage. That's why I'm here. 😂

The only terminal cancer worth mentioning around here is MS-DOS.

Google says Manifest v3 is being done "for security reasons" but what they don't say is that it's not for your security.

It's a Judge Dredd situation.

Google is vertically integrating the roles of content provider (ads) and content server so that web pages load exactly the way the page's developer expects them to. This necessarily excludes things that selectively filter content, like blockers.

They're essentially taking an open framefork for the web and replacing it with interactive pdfs, that show exactly what the web developer wants, and collects exactly the information the developer wants to know about you.

If you think you should have more control, use Firefox. Anyone using Chrome is complict at this point.

They are just reading /proc and re-arranging the information
