i tried tails but google still tracks me and its not for me since the police arent coming after me and the amensia and only being on usb is a bit annoying. i just thought there would be a lot more privacy

i tried qubes with whonix because it seemed interesting but still no privacy even on safest settings in tor (google still knows its me)

It is more private, you even more private that the vast majority of people using internet right now (me included) it just, Google is big, like, really big, too big that you cannot escape them, literally, even the dumbphone can't escape Google

    How can google track you when you use a dumb phone? Do mean by means of other tech or are you implying they have access to cellular towers?

    Well yes, kinda, not directly to Google, i read it somewhere else that the companies behind those cellular tower may or may not relate to Google

    Sorry i cant give you the full detail, i read it once somewhere in the r/privacy subreddit and it make me kinda go back on decision to get a dumb phone
