I created a google takeout and in that zip file I found some files containing a ton of data about me. It has logged every single page I visited while using the google search engine and chrome browser. It even logged every single time I opened an app on my old android phone. It even has VOICE RECORDINGS of me and a log of every time I used google assistant. This is just some of the data and I’m very sure there is even more data they have.
The worst part, is even when you try to avoid, you cant.
You send an email from proton, to mostly gmail account, now they have your email.
You mean your business, the guy next to you talk to google home, and you get recorded.
Every time I 'm forced to use a google account by some 3rd party, I get a panic attack from how predatory it is to get you to give them your data, you cant log out without 4 clic, it is a true dystopia we let that compagny rule our world
That’s why you use hide-my-email aliases when you sign up to sites, so they can’t tie “your” email to you anymore.
Create a few junk accounts, send recovery to a hide-my-email alias
If you use password managers it really is no bother to have multiple accounts, and Proton Pass integrates hide-my-email, it’s pretty neat.
Thanks for the hint with hide-my-email! I will ask my mail provider, if they offer something like this as a service.
