3 months agoYou can basically disable most Google tracking though a good DNS that blocks that traffic.
So only most but not all. Therefore it’s not private if there’s any tracking. Thus a de-googled version is the only option.
For gmail that’s true (one should use something else anyhow). For youtube you can use an alternative frontend like NewPipe to avoid tracking.
If you care about privacy you should use a trustworthy paid email. They even aren’t that expensive. You can get them as low as 1 € / month.
