Glad I don’t use any Google services and no apps on graphene OS then for my main computers I run Fedora silverblue with no Google once again.
Yes but do you use PiHole and a solid VPN? Do you spoof your browser’s useragent? Even then, some would argue that you are not safe enough from Google’s prying eyes.
TorBrowser does all of this for you.
Doesn’t matter, your browser will be fingerprinted with some embedded JavaScript that works in all modern browsers.
It doesn’t matter if they detect you’re on a VPN when that VPN is shared by tens of thousands or millions of others. Thats literally the point. It prevents fingerprinting by IP
