      If you want to, sure. I haven’t used Google for many years but others seem happy to continue using them.

      I think a lot of people have given up on privacy but it’s not too hard these days to get some. You just can’t get perfect privacy. Then you can’t even own a phone or have a credit card.

        It’s a convenience vs privacy. People typically take the easiest path. If we could create an easy solution for privacy, everyone would use it.
