How much info is Google getting from your phone?

This is the question asked by a journalist in a FoxNews report; then they went around the town with two smartphones, without SIM, no data during travel, one even in airplane mode, and they analysed all the traffic that got sent to Google. And the result is just amazing...

Google bricks some Homes and Home Minis with firmware update and often there's no reset possible

https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/10/22/google-home-brick-ota-software-update/

Even though you probably don't notice that any of your Google Home devices are constantly receiving firmware updates, they get new software all the time. Most likely, you'll only realize it when something goes really wrong, which is exactly what more and more people are reporting on Google's help forum and Reddit. They say their Google Homes and Google Home Minis have been bricked following an OTA, and they receive little to no help from Google when they're outside of warranty.

The issue has been around for a while already, but reports are starting to pile in Google's support forums. People say that they've found their Homes with all four LEDs turned on and unresponsive. Simply unplugging and replugging their speakers could resolve the problem for some while others managed to go through a factory reset to make their Homes work again, but even more people say that no matter what they do, their devices remain bricked.

A Google community specialist joined the discussion and wrote that "the team is working on this issue and checking the root cause since not all Google Home devices are affected." The statement was issued on September 28, but since then, there hasn't been any further information.

Parallelly, discussions on Reddit revolve around the same issues. Redditors complain that Google won't replace their bricked devices when they're outside of warranty, even if it seems pretty certain it was the company's update that ended the speakers. Hopefully, Google will be able to resolve the issue, even if it can't fix it via software and has to replace hardware outside of warranty.

We can no longer pretend that Google is a positive force in the world.
https://notochrome.org/

There is a simple first step that every internet user can take to make things a little better. Seek out a better web browser to replace Google Chrome and tell everyone to do the same.

No to Chrome is designed as a starting point for anyone who uses the internet to send a message to Google that their relentless disregard for our rights, dignity, democracy and communities will not be tolerated.

There are many ways protest against Google ranging from Tweets to full boycotts but No to Chrome is designed to be for anyone who uses the internet to participate easily and immediately.
