I’m in the midst of eliminating anything from my life that is connected to big tech. I’m going to delete my Amazon, and Google Accounts. I already deleted my Facebook. I’m working on getting my purchases downloaded and converted from Amazon as of writing this.

I’m going to get rid of Reddit as well. Sadly reddit has become super contaminated with censorship, and that is one of the hardest platforms for me to leave. It must be done though, i can no longer support their platform. Gmail will probably be the last thing to go. Already switched email services and i’m trying to get everything moved over. Years of connecting services to Gmail leaves me in a tangled mess.

I didn’t have a point really. I just wanted to tell people who might appreciate, and solidify my actions in my own mind. I’m trying to create a new self identity in a privacy focused environment.

    Its just that Reddit is connected to all the other big tech conglomerates and its watched to closely, its getting creepy. I don’t really think i can point out specific examples. They banned Trump though, and for me that was the red flag. They are just censuring at their leisure now. As for Amazon, my plan is to try to buy direct from manufactures. I might use Amazon’s interface to browse, and then go else where to buy
