Think of Google as a data collection and advertising machine for the Democrats (and the Deep State) - Shut Down Google As A Treasonous Operation NOW

"Based on my team’s research, Google, and to a lesser extent, Facebook and other tech monopolies, not only took steps to shift millions of votes to Democrats in the midterms…
Over a period of months, Google nudged undecided voters toward voting blue by showing people politically biased content in their search engine, suppressing content they didn’t want people to see, recommending left-leaning videos on YouTube (pdf) (which Google owns), allegedly sending tens of millions of emails to people’s spam boxes, and sending go-vote reminders on their home page mainly to liberal and moderate voters.
These manipulations (and others) don’t affect voters with strong points of view, but they can have an enormous impact on voters who are undecided (pdf) — the people who decide the outcomes of close elections. …
Political advertising by selective omission:
We were monitoring the politically related content that Google and other tech companies were showing to actual voters — our politically diverse panel of 2,742 “field agents,” who were located mainly in swing states.
In particular, we were tracking what Google employees call “ephemeral experiences” — content that appears briefly, affects people, and then disappears.
In 2018, in emails that leaked from the company, Googlers were discussing how they might use ephemeral experiences to change people’s views about Trump’s travel ban. They know how powerful ephemeral experiences can be. That’s one of the most closely held secrets of Google’s management.
Ephemeral content is ideal for manipulation purposes. If you get a go-vote reminder on Google’s home page (see the image below for an actual go-vote reminder sent to a liberal voter on Election Day), how would you know whether anyone else was getting it? You wouldn’t, and if you didn’t receive such a reminder, how would you know that anyone else had?
He also advises people that Google promotes some conspiracy theories to distract and divide the punters away from the real targets. While this is undoubtedly true to some extent, he pushes far too hard. Presumably he is frustrated watching people fight on so many fronts and wants them all to focus on his battle instead."

But if they're shut down now, smartphones effectively go away. (Apple is worse.)
I would like to have a good way to follow podcasts that doesn't depend on those companies.
I particularly dislike when our government gathers info through tax returns, census taking, DMV data, including drivers licenses, vehicle registrations, and now the collection of how many miles you drive each year.
Never know how the government will use that data in ITS quests for power.
I do know that any time I verify my VPN operation, my IP number and location are far from my actual location and IP - but the fedgov could have its hooks into the VPN company in the background. That's another reason to kill off the power of the fedgov by leaving it behind.
