Deleting accts on services that don't respect your privacy

#2
Yeah, I'm trying to detach myself from a lot of the BIG TECH companies. They make it painfully hard, especially after integrating so much in the past. I'm keeping a few of the accounts, just to appear "normal" but there's no useful content/information that they don't already have that's there. i.e. I still have a Facebook, but haven't added/updated information in over 10 years. It's literally just to keep in contact with some people I wouldn't otherwise.

I've deleted other accounts that I can remember, and try to do so whenever I get emails from them. Bright side of marketing emails is they remind you the still have your info.

Little things like using Firefox/DuckDuckGo and/or Brave/DuckDuckGo combination to keep away from Google. Again, I still have Gmail and have a lot of employment related stuff I can't keep out of it for.

Now the goal is to stop getting intertwined with them and limit their use as much as possible.
