If you're using the internet, you're already aware of "cookies", "tracking" and "privacy" concerns that come with browsing & searching.
Especially in today's world where Google has self-proclaimed itself dictator of all online searches, and with Facebook & Twitter censoring individuals, websites and hashtags that they deem "too conservative", you'll be relieved to know you don't have to use their products anymore!
As Zuckerberg, Dorsey, and Sundar Pichai are currently brought in front of a senate committee to explain their policies and reasons for controlling the flow of information, censoring conservative news and blocking content and users who have a different political view, we are also learning that these giant publishers inform each other and compile lists of who & what to squash...
This means that there's absolutely no privacy, no security and you're most likely on a "blacklist" if you've ever googled Trump, or tweeted against BLM or gave angry face to ANTIFA on facebook!!!
Think about this for a moment. Your news deliverer gets to decide what you need to know, when you should know it and if you're heading in a direction that they don't approve---they flag you, block you and blacklist you!
Fortunately, there's a new browser that's giving Google a run for its money and it stands on principle, safety and anonymity.
Meet BRAVE: https://brave.com
3x faster than Google, comes with AdBlock, has VPN & Tor for private and anonymous browsing, doesn't track your activity and when you close out your session, Brave doesn't keep anything on its servers! Many, many more features and works with DuckDuckGo search engine (totally independent from Google's reach).
Meet DuckDuckDuckGo:
The search engine that doesn't sell your private information and doesn't need Google to find results for you! It works independently (you can download this for Android phone too), and will never track you! Works seamlessly with Brave browser! It also grades the sites you visit for your immediate attention.
***note the red circle. If the site you're on has a C- or less, it's not a secure site and do not enter any personal information, passwords etc.
So please do yourself a huge favor, ditch Google Chrome, don't use "hey Google" to search for things and don't reward Big Tech with your data, your money and your privacy!
