I´ve tried every trick i know (which is not much i have to say) but they keep fucking me whenever i want to watch a youtube video or wanna look for something using the search function. Any ideas anyone ? Other than to dump them I already use another search site but not being able to use youtube anymore just because of google and their never ending data-mining bullshit is a drag Cube [Link] |

Maybe some day .... even people in the us may wake up ... but as long as your government hunts people like NEO (=S.n.o.w.d.e.n) theres not much hope Cube  [Link] |

First, have you ever actually signed-up for any Google service? Second, do you have the Google Chrome browser on your computer -- even if you don't use it? Go to Start > Control Panel > Programs and Features to be sure. I use Firefox -- daily, on three computers -- and do not have the You Tube "Google" problems you encounter. I'm also running Windows 7. Third, what OS are you running? Fourth, what is your default search engine? Fifth, have you installed any browser toolbars -- whether you installed them, or they got installed without your knowledge? Sixth, what anti-virus/anti-malware program are you running? [Link] |

| cubesnake Senior Member 3858 Posts 10/02 | Posted - Jan 20 2016 : 2:39PM It never happend in the past ... why now all of a sudden ? is that the american idea ? if a big company/whoever buys everything and then have everyone comply to their "rules" Have the crowd bend over and ask for more ? Sorry, not my thinking I´m watching the world with a lot of concern and what we all are being forced to accept. If people do it without saying NO the big bosses have already won. I have no smartphone ... no facebook and all that other "social media bs" and i will not accept "NFC" bs either. If it can not be de-activated then i switch service to one who does I don´t know what people have in their skulls these days but it can no be a brain it seems (no offence) Cube Edited by - cubesnake on 1/20/2016 3:27:43 PM Edited by - cubesnake on 1/20/2016 3:28:48 PM [Link] |

They constantly buy competitors and (even non-competitors) and kill the company, axe jobs, and sometimes not even use the product/services they bought. I used to create blacklist for some of the obvious Google stuff before ADP, NoScript or Ghostery came into place. Just research Google Analytics (GA) or urchin (previously) and if they're not block - make sure you manually write filters or blacklist their domains & js traffic. [Link] |
