They are late to recognize this.
Any site which includes Google javascript has turned over everything you do on that site to Google, every keystroke, every mouse movement.

🔥 New Post: Announcing InAppBrowser - see what JavaScript commands get injected through an in-app browser
👀 TikTok, when opening any website in their app, injects tracking code that can monitor all keystrokes, including passwords, and all taps.

If you haven't noticed already, we don't really have a justice system.
This would be similar to Trump trying to find good legal representation. The DOJ simply targets the lawyers and law firms that currently or previously represented him. Other lawyers see this and are terrified of having every aspect of their lives surveilled, criminal charges brought against them, losing standing in their communities and losing their ability to practice law. If they are not able to find something, the DOJ will target that person's family/friends etc. and/or make shit up.
Since Google (Alphabet) really provides the government with vast amounts of intelligence data, the same would happen to any lawyer taking your case.
Therefore, any competent lawyer will decline. They will probably site conflict of interest. As Google's contamination of most of the internet would lead to a bearing on most of the firms' other clients.

Wife got an email:
That kind of tracking leak is the smaller problem.
The really huge problem is the use of 3rd party javascript. That shit can do anything.
On behalf of Kaiser Permanente, I am writing to inform you about a privacy matter that may have affected you.
What Happened?
On October 25, 2023, Kaiser Permanente determined that certain online technologies (commonly known as cookies or pixels) installed on our websites and mobile applications may have transmitted personal information to our third-party vendors Google, Microsoft Bing, and X (Twitter) when members and patients accessed our websites or mobile applications. These technologies are sometimes used by organizations to understand how consumers interact with websites and mobile applications. We apologize that this incident occurred.

Apple banned ivermectin info I was sending a friend to his apple email back during the scamdemic. Google/gmail never did that, but then again, they want incriminating info that they can provide to the NSA/CIA/WEF/CFR/FBI.

They're all spying. Fuck with them. I currently have 128,111 mostly unread emails in my inbox. Fuck them all. Make them spend money on marketing chasing customers that will NEVER purchase a product. Not my loss. If I know your phone number I'll answer or text back. If I don't. Goodbye.
I filter known email addresses as well. Between VPN and not clicking the emails I look like a crazy person if you get a hold of my data. Any personal data I send is always encrypted.
Some will try to "hide." The most damage you can do is to fuck with the data. They can't make money on a pile of turds.

Wow, so Apple was actively reading and banning emails based on their content. Maybe via AI, but that's arguably even worse.

It was the website that tracks side effects by batch numbers. This was sent to my friend's email @me.com in 2022 no less:
"local policy" my ass . . .
SMS messaging had no problem with it. Now they want to censor SMS too.

It takes the duplicity of a fag to complete the ideological hypocrisy which is Apple.

I had to sign up for a Google email to work the Android phones. But I have never ever used or even checked that email address.
I had an iPhone once, got tired of Google bogging down their phone every two years to make you buy a new one. Apple was even more intrusive about signing up to their shit and using it. A waitress at Denny's stole my phone when it was only a few days old. I called up apple and asked them to disable it, because my work email was on it, and who ever stole it was screwing with the emails deleting them. Which was deleting them from the server and my inbox. Apple told me that they could, but wouldn't because I didn't sign in and set up all of those features to allow Apple to spy on me while I used my phone. SO as punishment they would not disable the phone for me. That was essentially the conversation, though not verbatim. But the factual gist of how I was told.
I'll never buy Apple anything. Ever.

What's the best Linux laptop?
There must be some pretty nice hardware these days.

Almost all government websites betray all of your confidential information to Google by including Javascript from Google. Open your brower's development tools if you know what that means, and look for request to Google when you hit any government website.
This is terrible, a wholesale handover of terabytes of private information from the public to Google. That Javascript can read anything on the page, and report back anything to Google. Google can also alter all of these pages to say whatever they want the site to say, without the site owner even knowing.
I usually find out about it when I'm trying to use a site and it won't work because I have all Google domains blocked with Little Snitch.
Want to say something to the water company you are obliged to get your water from? Sorry, you can't say it without an open door for Google eavesdropping:
https://www.calwater.com/contact-us/ exposes all your data to Google via https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js
That's just a trivial example. Try to buy health insurance without turning over all your info to Google. Or try to talk to the IRS without exposing your data to Google.
https://www.irs.gov/ forces your browser to make a request to https://www.google.com/js/bg/3-hpRAd0_wuB6laQqaJG0uu5agxtfADTbxmN8ntEYS8.js thus stripping away all of your privacy.
Worst one: you cannot even report an "anonymous" tip to the FBI without also reporting your identity and all the details in the tip to Google:

Edward Snowden is in exile partly because he disclosed Google's information pipeline to the federal government.
This has to stop.
