Everyone should be cutting Tesla, Google, Microsoft, apple, meta etc etc out of their lives as much as possible.
I totally agree. While I do have a Google account, I haven't used it in many months, and my tablet and phones have never been signed in to begin with. I guess you might consider my mobile Android devices as 'virgin' devices, and I don't mean Virgin Mobile.
I did break my hiatus from Google briefly tonight, just to ask Google Docs to write a document to compare and contrast AI slop versus reality..

Anyways, I'm done with Google again for as long as I can avoid it. But I'm still leaving the account active, if for no other reason than my YouTube videos (not like I'm even making any money off my random stuff)..
