I just joined a few new privacy guaranteed sites.
I just signed up...
you may want to do so also since youtube (along with facebook and twitter have been censoring a lot of important info)...
Instead of Google, been searching on DuckDuckGo.
Mastadon, (kind of like Twitter but you toot, not tweet, there is more word/characters, you can write what you want, join various groups, DM, etc.) @cshecht@sfba.social
Telegram (don’t really know how to use this yet)
and MeWe
Have a proton email account rather than gmail but have not utilized it much yet.
Proton email is MIT which is not a good idea at all. I use ctemplar but if they really want to get in--they will.
and Telegram is at least run if not owned by a WEFer. I avoid Telegram at all costs.
