Q & A

What are some of the main reasons people feel trapped in the Google ecosystem?

People feel trapped in the Google ecosystem because Google products are highly convenient, widely used, and often free. However, these services come with hidden costs like personal data being collected and sold to advertisers, which makes users reliant on them.

What is 'Manifest V3,' and why is it a concern for privacy advocates?

Manifest V3 is a new standard for Chromium-based browsers that restricts the functionality of certain browser extensions, particularly ad blockers, under the guise of improving security. Privacy advocates are concerned because it limits the ability to block ads and track browsing data.

Which browsers are mentioned as alternatives to Google Chrome, and what are their key features?

Firefox, Brave, and Arc are mentioned as alternatives to Chrome. Firefox offers privacy-first features and will not adopt Manifest V3. Brave includes built-in content blocking and privacy options, while Arc offers a minimalist UI and encrypted sync options.

How does ungoogled Chromium differ from regular Chromium-based browsers?

Ungoogled Chromium strips out all Google-related services and features, providing a more privacy-focused, stock browser experience. It also includes additional features like fingerprint resistance and customizable anti-tracking options.

What are some search engine alternatives to Google, and what makes them stand out?

Alternatives like Startpage, Ecosia, DuckDuckGo, and Brave Search stand out due to their privacy-first policies. They anonymize search queries and do not track users, with Brave Search offering additional features like an AI-powered answer engine and anonymized local search.

Why should users consider switching from Gmail, and what are some privacy-centric alternatives?

Gmail analyzes user behavior to target ads, and it compromises privacy by monetizing user data. Privacy-centric alternatives like ProtonMail and Tutanota offer end-to-end encryption, transparency reports, and features like alias email addresses for enhanced privacy.

What are some alternatives to Google Photos for backing up photos, and how do they compare?

Ente and Stingle are privacy-focused alternatives to Google Photos. Ente offers on-device facial recognition and machine learning features, while Stingle offers secure photo storage at a lower cost. Both allow users to self-host and provide enhanced privacy protections.

What are some DNS services that can help users move away from Google, and what benefits do they offer?

Quad9, NextDNS, and Cloudflare DNS are alternatives to Google’s DNS. They offer features like malware blocking and DNS over HTTPS, which prevents internet service providers or hotspots from snooping on users' browsing activity. They also claim to have better privacy policies.

How can users change their default search engine on various browsers?

On Firefox, users can change their search engine through the search settings menu, while on Chromium-based browsers, it is located under 'Settings.' Safari users may need to install an extension if their desired search engine is not in Apple’s default list.

What are the main challenges and benefits of switching from Google services to more privacy-focused alternatives?

The main challenges include reconfiguring profiles, migrating data, and learning new interfaces. However, the benefits are greater privacy, more control over personal data, and freedom from Google’s data collection practices.

Keywords

💡Google Chrome

Google Chrome is a popular web browser developed by Google. The video discusses alternatives to Chrome, emphasizing privacy concerns related to Google's data tracking and its integration with Google's services. Examples include switching to browsers like Firefox or Brave, which prioritize privacy and do not support Google's upcoming Manifest V3 restrictions.

💡Manifest V3

Manifest V3 is a new standard for browser extensions that Google Chrome is adopting, which limits the functionality of certain extensions, particularly ad blockers. This change is framed as a 'security' improvement, but the video critiques it for reducing user control over privacy. Alternatives like Firefox and Brave still support the older, more flexible Manifest V2 standard.

💡Privacy-first browsers

Privacy-first browsers are web browsers that emphasize protecting user data by minimizing tracking and data collection. Examples from the video include Firefox, Tor Browser, and Brave. These browsers offer features such as encrypted sync, fingerprint resistance, and blocking of tracking technologies to protect user privacy.

💡Ad blockers

Ad blockers are browser extensions that prevent advertisements from loading on web pages, improving the browsing experience by removing distractions and enhancing privacy by stopping trackers. The video mentions how Manifest V3 threatens to limit ad blocker capabilities, recommending browsers that still allow robust ad blocking like Brave and Firefox.

💡Search engines

Search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo allow users to search the internet for information. The video criticizes Google’s search engine for its extensive data collection and offers privacy-focused alternatives like DuckDuckGo, StartPage, and Brave Search, which claim to anonymize user data and protect privacy while providing search results.

💡Ungoogled Chromium

Ungoogled Chromium is a version of the Chromium browser stripped of all Google services and tracking. It offers users a 'clean' browsing experience, without the integration of Google features, thus ensuring more privacy. The video highlights it as a privacy-focused alternative to Google Chrome for users looking to avoid Google’s ecosystem.

💡DNS

DNS (Domain Name System) converts domain names into IP addresses, allowing users to access websites. The video explains that Google’s DNS service can be a method of tracking user activity. Alternatives like Quad9 and NextDNS offer more privacy, blocking trackers and malware domains, and support DNS over HTTPS to encrypt browsing activities.

💡Self-hosting

Self-hosting refers to running services like email or photo backup on personal servers instead of relying on third-party providers. The video suggests self-hosting as a way to increase privacy and reduce reliance on Google services. It mentions open-source options like Photoprism for photo storage and email servers for those who prefer more control over their data.

💡ProtonMail

ProtonMail is a secure, privacy-focused email service that offers end-to-end encryption, meaning only the sender and recipient can read the emails. The video highlights ProtonMail as a strong alternative to Gmail, which scans and analyzes emails for advertising purposes. ProtonMail prioritizes user privacy and has no ads, unlike Gmail.

💡Google ecosystem

The Google ecosystem refers to the interconnected services and products provided by Google, such as Gmail, Google Chrome, Google Photos, and Google Search. The video argues that although these services are convenient, they come at the cost of user privacy, as Google collects vast amounts of data for advertising. The video focuses on helping users 'de-Google' by recommending alternative services.

Highlights

Google services are convenient, widely used, and often free, but they monitor everything you do to train machine learning algorithms and sell your data to advertisers.

Manifest V3 limits certain types of extensions, especially ad blockers, in Chromium-based browsers in the name of security.

Firefox, unlike many Chromium-based browsers, remains a privacy-first alternative without adopting Manifest V3 and is still a strong, fast choice.

Brave browser retains support for Manifest V2 extensions, offers built-in content blocking, and provides unique features like syncing that are end-to-end encrypted.

Arc browser provides a minimalist design with features like split view, vertical tabs, and sharable tab groups, though it lacks some features on Windows compared to Mac.

Ungoogled Chromium removes all ties to Google, offering a more private experience while still allowing extension installation, with added features like fingerprint resistance.

Alternatives to Google Search like Startpage, Ecosia, DuckDuckGo, and Brave Search offer privacy-focused options with anonymized search history and protection against data tracking.

Brave Search provides AI-powered answers and allows users to opt out of analytics, while Kagi Search offers premium features like machine learning tools and control over search rankings.

Proton and Tutanota are privacy-centric alternatives to Gmail, providing end-to-end encryption for emails and extra features like custom domains and email aliases.

For photo backup, privacy-focused options like Ente and Stingle offer open-source solutions with features such as secure facial recognition and cloud storage.

To avoid being tracked through DNS services, options like Quad9 and NextDNS provide malware blocking and DNS over HTTPS/TLS to prevent internet service providers from snooping.

Moving away from Google's DNS services is an important step in becoming less dependent on their ecosystem and avoiding data tracking.

Secure DNS options can be configured at the browser, operating system, or router level, ensuring broader protection against data leaks from connected devices.

Although changing your default search engine or DNS service helps reduce Google’s influence, the effort of switching browsers and syncing settings may still be a chore.

The video hints at a follow-up series to cover even more Google alternatives, including maps, ad-blocking, password managers, and cloud storage.

Transcripts

Google just killed your favorite service

again but what are you going to do about

it it's not like their ominous calling

card is wrong hundreds of millions of

people use Google products every day and

why not they're super convenient and

many are even free but that's the thing

is it convenient to have services that

you rely on pulled out from under you on

a regular basis and free is not free

they monitor literally everything that

you do to train machine learning

algorithms and to sell your data to

advertisers a function that they've

built right into the world's most

popular web browser I mean it's no

wonder that people feel trapped in the

ecosystem how do you divorce from the

world's third largest tech company

they're everywhere but it is possible

and we're going to show you how in a

series that we're calling de gooogle

your life and we're going to show you

our sponsor pulseway pulseway is it

monitoring and management software lets

you keep an eyee on your systems from

anywhere try it for free today and

secure 40% off any plan including

month-to-month options unlike Google

most of the Alternatives that we've dug

up have both strong privacy policies and

endtoend encryption because I mean

privacy might not be your main reason

for deg Googling but if you're putting

the work in anyway we feel that you

might as well minimize the personal

information that you're handing to data

brokers who are going to turn around and

sell it to everyone from insurance

companies to World governments let's

start with the product that you're most

likely to be using right now Google

Chrome thankfully there are alternatives

and I'm not just talking about Firefox

though that is a good alternative it's

gotten really fast in recent updates and

is one of the few remaining browsers not

related to chromium and therefore Google

this matters because chromium based

browsers are moving to the new manifest

V3 standard which seriously limits

certain typ of extensions in the name of

security notably ad blockers Firefox and

its privacy first descendants like Tor

Browser and mulad have no plans to drop

manifest V2 anytime soon there are still

some chromium based Alternatives that

are worth checking out though brave for

instance is also retaining support for

manifest V2 extensions it's got built-in

content blocking support and includes a

number of other cool features of course

it also has some web 3.0 stuff like

intend Ally viewing ads but their ads to

earn crypto tokens which personally I'd

turn off but that's a matter of taste

but one thing you can leave on are the

surprisingly robust sync options they're

endtoend encrypted so they're only used

on your devices another browser with

encrypted sync is Arc which started its

life on Apple devices just last year and

is just now available on Windows 11 it

boasts high performance and a minimalist

UI with split view vertical tabs and

sharable tab groups called spaces this

minimalism looks fantastic and with the

sidebar collapsed websites even look

kind of like dedicated apps but it does

take some getting used to and

unfortunately it requires a login to use

it also hides a lot of settings up front

and as of writing the windows version is

missing a lot of features that Mac users

enjoy like the library shelf the max AI

assistant and boosts webpage

customizations for something a little

more familiar feeling ungoogled chromium

is exactly what it sounds like offering

a very stock experience while stripping

out practically everything related to

Google including even the web store for

getting extensions thankfully there is a

setting that streamlines installing

extensions and an extension you can

download that allows you to still use

the web store like normal but you get to

choose when those extensions get updated

ungoogled chromium also includes a

number of extra features like

fingerprint resistance to foil tracking

and extra customization for ey Behavior

though its anti-tracking does fall short

of Braves capabilities it's a

community-driven product with no ties to

a particular company which may be

attractive to you now there are many

many others out there with particular

focuses but we don't have time to go

over all of them in this video so I'd

recommend taking at least a handful of

them for a test drive before committing

to fully switch cuz it can be a little

bit of a chore for example Firefox can

import your history autofill and your

bookmarks which will get you most of the

way moved in but it can can't directly

copy your Chrome profile so you're going

to have to install your favorite

extension separately from there you can

just open both of them side by side and

match your settings or you can see if

you can find the option to export your

settings to a file and then import them

to your new browser going between

chromium based browsers is both easier

and more difficult at the same time

first you need to close your browsers

and figure out where your profile folder

is here are a couple of examples next

copy the user data folder to your new

browser and you're done you will need to

relog into some of your websites but

your extensions bookmarks history and

everything else should come along for

the ride there is one small problem

still though your new browser probably

still defaults to Google for the task

that you do most often search Google's

longest lived and most recognizable

service to date has degraded to such a

point that it is now arguably one of

their least usable services but we put

up with it because who else do you turn

to when you need to Google something

well there are competitors the next

biggest ones in North America would be

Bing and Yahoo but that feels a little

like saying I'm giving up craft dinner

to stay healthy and then switching to

the house brand mac and cheese from

Walmart luckily there are many lesser

known search engines available some of

which even offer results from major

search indexes so if all you want is to

Google without Google start page or

ecosia provide exactly that both of them

claim to anonymize your search history

and claim to not build a profile based

on your usage and start page was one of

if not the first such search engine with

root daating back to the 9s doc Dogo

meanwhile tour browsers default search

engine is another old name in the space

that in this case uses results from Bing

and offers a bunch of Handy extras like

bangs which let you search via other

engines or websites all three of these

have strong privacy protections showing

only ads that are related to individual

search queries and iosia is kind of cool

they use their proceeds to plant trees a

powerful and increasingly popular

alternative is brave search it uses a

well-regarded engine with strong privacy

protections and offers features that

Google currently lacks like an AI

powered answer engine that summarizes

results for you the ability to drill

down into subtopics with goggles and

anonymized local area search results

unlike duck Dugo Brave does collect

analytics by default but you can opt out

in the settings page and turn off any of

the extra features that you don't use

Brave also offers premium ad free search

for $3 a month speaking of Premium kagi

is a subscription only search engine

besides speed they offer the most

comprehensive privacy policy of any of

the engines we're discussing and they

have a robust Suite of machine learning

tools including assistants that interact

with popular machine learning models and

the ability to summarize basically

anything lenses is a feature that works

similarly to Braves goggles for drilling

down into subtopics and you get direct

control over page rankings with helpful

information like domain age and tracker

count to guide your decision- making

they offer 100 searches for free and

then you'll need to decide whether it's

worth opening up your wallet duck Dogo

Brave and kagi all claim to run their

own search indices in some capacity

allowing them to do their own page

ranking and serve original search

results but only Brave claims to have a

completely independent index now of of

course there are a whole host of other

options available including cirs which

you can even host yourself so don't take

what we've highlighted as the only

options but getting off of Google even

to a search engine that uses Google's

results is a huge step toward becoming

less dependent on the alphabit company's

whims the easiest way to wean yourself

off is by changing your default search

engine unfortunately that is super easy

Firefox heard you like search so they

made a search for searches so you can

search for your search if you're using a

chromium based browser though it's

usually right there under settings and

will automatically populate with engines

as you use them once you found one that

you like click activate if necessary

then the three dots and then make

default it's that simple that is unless

you're a safari user because Apple

knoweth best or at least gets payeth

best so you'll need to download an

extension if your search engine isn't on

the short list that Apple gives you by

default now let's talk about email not

only is Google inserting ads into your

Gmail inbox now but to Target Those ads

they are analyzing your habits and okay

no one is reading your email obviously

but that doesn't mean that they won't

anonymize it and then use it to train

the machine learning algorithms that

power features like smart compose and

help me write now most of your

mainstream options to escape Gmail

happen to also be big Tech and while

some of them are better than others none

of them are squeaky clean so in the

spirit of De Googling we're going to be

avoiding those and we're going to focus

in on a couple of privacy Centric

providers that also happen to be free I

mean not entirely free they pay well

some of their features after all if

you're not giving them money or your

data then they're just taking a loss on

you but their free tiers aren't that bad

offering a gigabyte of data to go along

with their improved privacy and those

paid tiers are not just paying money for

nothing they give you access to cool

features that Google doesn't offer like

the ability to use a custom domain

outside of work spaces obviously extra

email addresses and this is cool quick

to create hide my email aliases that can

help you manage spam and prevent one

website security breach from spreading

across all of your accounts now while

Tuda is primarily focused on email

proton is cool because they have a suite

that is basically the Privacy focused

equivalent to many of Google's core

Services they've both been independently

audited and everything is end to-end

encrypted meaning that neither of them

could read your email even if they

wanted to much less Target ads from it

Tuda claims to go one step further

encrypting more of your emails metadata

than proton does but realistically I

don't expect that to make much of a

difference and when it comes to law

enforcement requests both of them

provide biannual transparency reports

and detail the number and type of

requests that they respond to migrating

to either of them is easy since all of

these options support the ability to

import your mail from popular services

so just find one you like settle in and

give Google The Finger by nuking your

Gmail inbox oh and by the way yes we are

aware that you can run your own email

server but that is well beyond the scope

of this video and honestly not something

that we would recommend for most people

photo backup on the other hand is

something that you could realistically

self-host and let's be real a huge part

of Modern Life Google photos has a lot

of people locked in and for good reason

not only is it cross platform unlike

iCloud but it's sharable and searchable

with cool features like the ability to

create fun little slideshows for you but

wait hold on a second how do they do

that unless they know what you look like

know where you go and know who you spend

your time

with unlike browsers and email there

aren't a ton of players in the photo

backup game but two of them stand out

for being both open source and self-

hostable the first ente has the more

expensive cloud storage Serv service

with no free tier but they offer on

device secure facial recognition that

never makes it to the server machine

learning categorization and Maps

integration it's an experience that's

pretty close on paper to what you'd

expect on Google photos with the caveat

being that you need to enable those

extra features on every device you use

and since it's all generated locally it

probably won't be as accurate or

powerful as Google's super computer

powered Mega models stingle meanwhile

offers better pricing for cloud storage

than ente plus they have a complete

breakdown of how they secure your

photos but that's about it they don't

offer much more other than albums and

secure sharing and their development

blog is eerily quiet still if all you

need is back up and you're cool with

manual organization like the good old

days it's less expensive and it's very

transparent now if you just want to back

your photos up to cloud storage no

matter which one or maybe even spread

them across multiple varietes then you

can use phot sync not all of its

features are free but the majority of

backup targets including to a PC or a

Mac running the companion software don't

require a premium subscription another

self-hosting option is image this came

up a lot in the comments on our recent

video on building a DIY Nas to avoid

costly monthly Cloud subscriptions and

we'd be remiss if we didn't mention them

here like ente it offers facial

recognition map integration and

automatic backup but it also offers

Google like features like memory

memories slideshows and a scrubbable

timeline just follow the docker compos

steps to get started on your desktop or

your Naas of choice you are going to

want to use a VPN tunnel like openvpn or

tail scale to access it on the go unless

you have a Dynamic DNS name and are

comfortable with port forwarding which

reminds me not every Google service that

you use is obvious but even the

invisible ones can be used to track you

DNS is the service that devices on the

internet use to convert domain names

like LTT store.com to an IP address and

commonly the one that you're using is

Google's and even if you're using the

DNS server from your internet service

provider for example they might still be

using Google's DNS somewhere Upstream so

it's not super intuitive to avoid

thankfully there are free Alternatives

many of which claim not to log your

requests at all such as quad 9 and

nextdns both of them offer some extra

goodies to help protect your browsing

sessions including rules to block

malware and tracker domains meaning you

don't need to do it in the browser

making some of that manifest V3 stuff

less of an issue and another feature

they support that's becoming more common

is DNS over https or TLS which will

prevent your internet service provider

or a wireless hotspot from snooping on

what sites you're visiting quad 9 offers

easier setup while nextdns provides full

control albeit with a limited number of

blocking requests for free free the main

downside to using an alternative like

these is that responses can be a little

slower and you can check out our

cloudflare DNS video for more

information on that who by the way is

also a viable option for spreading your

data footprint around while being

arguably even more widespread online

than Google cloudflare has a pretty good

reputation for not being evil so far and

they offer optional malware blocking

just like quad 9 and nextdns as long as

you don't want any customization

whatsoever beyond that you can set up an

alternate DNS service in a few different

ways in your browser in your operating

system or in your router and while I

would recommend using a secure DNS

option where you can I would not

recommend stacking more than one of

those methods unless you know what

you're doing setting it up inside your

browser tends to be the more tedious

option since it'll need to be done not

only on every device you own but on

every browser you use and it only really

works on desktop thankfully it doesn't

take long in Chrome descended browsers

you can find the setting here and it's

here in Firefox just toggle it on paste

the address in the box and you're good

to go a better approach for most people

though is probably operating system

level DNS overrides Windows 11 fully

support secure DNS just go to the

network and internet settings page

choose the interface you'd like to

configure and click edit on DNS server

assignment set it to manual paste in the

values you got from your provider and

you're done for everyone else I'm unless

there's an app or you're running Linux

and you want to set up a DNS proxy

you're not going to use secure DNS OS

wide but that's fine we're not going to

go through every OS since the major

providers realistically have

step-by-step instructions on their sites

that you can follow based on your needs

as for the third option configuring it

on your router well this is cool because

it automatically applies to every device

that's connected to your network that is

unless they have their own overrides

which makes it a great option if you

want to set it once and forget it forget

it until you run into a random issue on

some app on your smart TV that's not

working you spend two hours fighting

with the thing until you remember oh

right I'm using custom DNS as for how to

do it if you want to do it the actual

configuration changes a lot depending on

which router you have so we're not going

to get that deep into it but what I will

say is you probably would want to set

this one up in addition to one of the

other options so that let's say your

phone for example is still using your

preferred DNS settings if you leave the

comfort of your Wi-Fi range because it

will only affect those devices when

they're connected to that router it's

great though for making sure that

non-configurable gear like the

aforementioned Smart TV gets the right

DNS settings though and in general

you'll find it under internet setup then

under DNS by default it will probably be

your isp's DNS but you should be able to

change it to a manual override some

routers also offer secure DNS here but I

wouldn't count on it now now I know

right now you are in the middle of

typing up a Manifesto about how we

missed your favorite alternative not to

mention that we haven't even covered the

majority of Google services but guys
