    Google is actively trying to drive people like me away. I have been trying my hardest to keep using Android, if Google keeps this up I might have to unwillingly move to Apple. At least they do more than just pretend to care about their users’ privacy.

      You, me, and everybody else commenting on this post are a miniscule, almost infintesimal percentage of Google’s global userbase. If each and every one of us statistical outliers stopped using Google everything right this second they wouldn’t even notice.

          More and more, I wonder if we’re going to have to go back to Lynx or Links or something just to look at sites that aren’t corporate because they’ll be otherwise inaccessible from anything else.

      I moved to Apple a few years ago, and recently I’ve stopped using Chrome for anything but work, where it’s required (web development, lol). Still married to gmail and google calendar but maybe it’s time I get away from those too…
