incidentally on the topic of constellation of services, I use fastmail for email, NFS for registrar/DNS, digitalocean for webhosting

I think I built this computer six months ago and have yet to find cause to log into a google account

interesting

so in your case pretty much all of the dependencies are indirect, plus the distortion of the information market, then

ultimately those are the only parts i'm worried about anyway, even tho i use google services. i'm not speaking out anywhere, so i'm safe

i don't run a blog, i don't make videos. but the info market distortions affect us all. so i agree: the google services are ~fungible for us

(and in your case you've preemptively chosen other services, even.) but the other stuff, there's no escaping that, at the moment

that's my ultimate thesis: ppl think it doesn't affect them bc they think G is just services, & neglect the systemic effects of their ad biz
