Alternatives to Google Products (Complete List)

Alternatives to Google Products (Complete List) | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From restoreprivacy.com - April 30, 2019 5:31 PM

It’s been fun Google, but it’s time to say goodbye.

 

Have you noticed?

 

Google’s entire business model is based on you surrendering to their corporate surveillance. That’s it. All they do is repackage mass corporate surveillance into convenient, free, trendy applications that suck up all your data. Your private data helps Google dominate the online advertising market.

Help End Google’s Search Monopoly: Use Something Else

Help End Google’s Search Monopoly: Use Something Else | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.makeuseof.com - November 12, 2014 3:10 PM
Despite being a free and open platform for expression, commerce and communication, Internet monopolies still exist. That probably says more about us as netizens than it does about the companies in control. Google is so ubiquitous it has reached verb status, and it's what most of us turn to when looking for something online. Monopolies are bad, and…

From www.educatorstechnology.com - October 15, 2013 3:26 PM

Google search engine is definitely one of the most popular search engines out there and most of our students use it as their first choice.

Kicking Google out of my life, Part 8: Will I ever go back?

Kicking Google out of my life, Part 8: Will I ever go back? | Information and digital literacy in education via the digital path | Scoop.it
From www.networkworld.com - July 17, 2016 1:13 PM
It's now been over two months since I began my journey to eradicate all traces of Google from my life. And one full month since I achieved that goal and began living fully Google-free.
