You can stop using all Google products. Now I understand their market share on the web means they’re going to continue to shape the web.
But make no mistake. There is something, however small, that you can do. De-Google.
My public school -- that my children are basically required by law to attend, remember -- is badgering me to sign a consent form so they can have Chromebooks.
This fight is a lot fucking larger than mere individual boycotts!
cant you give your child a cheap laptop, or they require thier inhouse shitty ones, use only?
They require that the kids use the Chromebooks and use Google accounts.
