Private Internet – Stop using Google and FaceBook (so much)

Treat Google and Facebook like “Junk Food” and seek to limit your consumption

Google

Google has become so useful in many areas that it has become an important tool in many peoples life. Google is also an extensive tracking engine that is building a very extensive and detailed profile on you. Microsoft’s Bing engine is doing the same thing.

Google, democracy and the truth about internet search

FaceBook

FaceBook is another large scale profile builder and tracker.

  • Logout of FaceBook when not using it (don’t surf while logged into Facebook)
  • Delete Facebook cookies
  • Don’t install FaceBook App or FaceBook messenger on your phone as it will send a lot of your data back to their servers.

 

Tic Tok
