      @cabal Unfortunately, it's not that simple. Google is basically embedded into the internet at this point.

        @redenchilada He can stop handing his data over to their services though. Block a few cookies and scripts in your browser, setup your own mailserver, and set your browser to hit up bing instead. Instant google free lifestyle.

            @redenchilada It's not that hard. I already go 9 hours a day without access to it.

        @redenchilada alternative services such as Bing and yahoo are still there. Plus, I can run my email on a private server. No more snooping.

          @cabal Or better yet, use Seeks piped through Tor: http://www.seeks-project.info/site/
