They inform you that they have updated their terms of service and

  1. They summarize the changes using language that is incomprehensible and vague
  2. They require a login for you to read the new terms

There's just no end to their bullshit ๐Ÿคฃ

Another great reason to not have a google account.

Recently been switching almost all of my stuff away from Google. Gmail -> TutaMail, Android -> GrapheneOS, Youtube -> Odysee, etc etc, and my life has never been better! These alternative services work better than the official ones ever did, and I get to have the extra reassurance that my data isnt being sold out to every corpo or government entity that asks.

Exactly! I live a Google free life in 5 years and getting on well. I was gettin on well before the Google days so i tjink we should all boycot this enshitification machine and take back what belongs to us, not to them. They have stollen it from us ... and i'm not left leaning ...

What is amazing is that all my discourse is starting to bear its fruits ... my 18 yr old son deleted his social accounts and got me to install GOS. And that is a big thing as only two years ago he yhought his dad was mentalky instable :-)
