Google should be next after Facebook. Break up the monopoly chokehold they have on us.

@Vee McMillen there are a lot of good alternatives to Google now, you can run your own search engine with yacy, or there is swisscows.ch which does not rely on Google's database.

I know, I use DuckDuckGo for search, Brave as a browser. Trying to avoid them altogether, have to change my email from gmail, might go back to Eudora, I used to like that one years ago.

@Vee McMillen even though duckduckgo is better at protecting your privacy, it uses Google's database, so if Google excludes something duckduckgo won't see it either, swisscows.ch by contrast, has it's own database.

Hey! That just irritates the hell out of me, pardon the language. I didn't know that about DuckDuckGo. I'm going to try swisscows. Nice name. Got to go look it up, thanks! I used to use Firefox as a browser for years, and they they started cramming liberal woohoos in my face. Brave is good so far.

@Vee McMillen I haven't switched to brave yet but I do find it's slap in the face to Google and other advertisers an interesting aspect.
