DeGoogled Life

Google's relevance declines as alternatives grow; privacy abuse weakens their power.

DeGoogled Life

Some say Google is a monopoly. I say they are not even relevant! Literally every service that they provide has an alternative. The ONLY thing that they have is the network effect and peer pressure. But as they continue to abuse the population’s privacy, their power will erode.

LibreWolf, Brave, Icecat, vanilla Firefox, Tor
