Google should change their motto to "First, let's ONLY do evil," since that is what they do.
For the life of me, I simply cannot understand why people still use this Stasi tool. It takes two seconds to download Brave at brave.com, and use their search engine, or the search engines Freespoke, SwissCows or Presearch. And no, none of these are perfect. We get it. But it IS an improvement.
"would God be able to reach a human who is interfaced straight to the cloud" - I don't think so. unless they're connection or device broke. Beginning to think all this tech evolving is pure evil. look at the back of an iPhone, or apple in general. Their logo is an apple with a bite out of it. A bit on the nose once you can see these things.
I am waiting for that moment when sooner or later people will give up goagle, not so useful anyway, so start or continue to buy books, old books. If you would search something years ago, tens of pages of results, now, one or two and only crap. Duckduckgo became the same. I am glad we have enjoyed some information in the better times, I will be glad to tell them good bye in any moment too. Life is better without. Imagine a world without goagle persons...what a heaven!
I remember when I was starting college in the late 70s. Certain professors would give you a project to work on or a paper to write. One would have to go to the library and check out books on the subject. Anyone remember that? You had to read, think, read and think some more and ask yourself. What does that word mean? What else was going on during that time period etc. After your project or paper was written with all those footnotes, and put in that cool binder you picked out, the professor would sometimes ask. John, come up and tell the class how you came to that conclusion. We learned from the professor and other students which could be very eye opening in many ways.
My mother told me college was about learning new things, but the most important thing it does is teach you how to relate and work with others. How true!!
In the end we have to continue to listen, look and learn and above all. Pray for wisdom and guidance as we think for ourselves. That’s my take on it anyway.
Thanks again Lisa for sharing this wonderful information with us all.
Teaching is meant to be learning :HOW; to think, not :WHAT; to think as is now the case in the indoctrination camps formerly used as Education-Centres (schools);
Questioning all presented before us is how we learn to think for ourselves;
Questioning anything presented to us in this day is fast becoming "illegal" even though the :LEGAL; is Colour-of-Law; People have become subservient to the :LEGAL; realm which has no basis in Law.
ps: i am an Australian and we use the English Language as it was always written to be; I will not change the way i spell words to suit the American agenda, nor will i apologise for it.
Schools and colleges have really done a 180 since I went, which you pointed out perfectly. When I went a student was able to ask questions and challenge the professor without fear of retribution or being mocked by other students. Those days are long gone unfortunately.
Here are some notes I took on non-Google phones. I need to clean it up, but you can read past that. I refuse to even use the term "googling"; rather, I use web search.
But I guess for all those too lazy to change, as they say, the beatings will continue until morale improves
If you like the Murena Teracube for sale on /e/'s website, that would be simplest, and would get over-the-air updates* as well.
BTW, keep in mind that many paid applications from the Play store may not work on /e/OS, if they require specific Google services. But /e/ incorporates micro-G which basically spoofs those services, allowing some/many proprietary/commercial apps to work. But if you’re searching here, you, like us, probably actively oppose Google services.
*Official builds that you install yourself can also get OTA updates. Unofficial builds won’t, but they’re easy to update manually once you already have /e/OS installed, as long as it’s not an Android version change
Volta phone: they will send you a SIM card, or eSIM to plug into your phone, works as a replacement for your existing carrier. When you go into a zone, the phone is constantly checking in with towers, where it hands over your status parameters – “I’m a phone, and here’s my number.” This goes into the log files of ATT, Verizon, etc. These keep a record of your location, meaning you can be geo-fenced (e.g, you were a block away from a robbery, but police think you were involved – of course, note that if you were a mule for all those fake Biden votes being dropped off, they will never check that)
So, how do you get calls without being tracked? You appear as data. www.voltawireless.com, use discount code “Ranger.” Cost is about 50 a month.
Here’s how it works: there are two categories of devices talking to cell towers: phones and “non-phone machines” just using data – i.e., data devices like machinery pressure gauges reporting pressures in oil pumping and wells , security systems, remote control applications, etc. They just send data. These non-phone devices have a different type of SIM card (looks, fits the same, but just for data), which doesn’t identify itself as a phone; rather it identifies itself as a data device, and hence doesn’t pass a phone number to cell towers. Volta makes your phone look like a data device to the cell towers, so the phone never sends your phone number to the cell tower, and in fact it never checks in as a phone. So if there is geofencing being done, your device no longer has checked in as a phone, and the cell towers don’t know the phone number you have, as the phone switching occurs in a Volta server farm located far away, which then sends data packet to your “Non-phone” phone. Even if they wanted to track you, the switching is done at the server farm. You still make phone calls, text, browse the web like usual, just not going thru the regular phone switches. All you do is swap out the SIM card. You can sign up anonymously with Volta, and you can also get a new phone number from them. Mike Adams reports the sound quality is “clear as day” even tho it is data. Adams report here https://www.brighteon.com/35316e98-3d35-4790-b66b-4c7b521a5ccb about 1 hour 20 min. mark. You also do not load the APK file from the Google play store.
YOU can also use as a hot spot; data … none of the carriers know what that data is, so they can’t assign it to you.
Above Phone Partners with Presearch on Secure, Private Phone
In an age of increased concern about surveillance, big tech tracking and security for crypto assets, Above Phone provides users with a 100% private, secure phone that leverages the best in open source, privacy-focused software to create a full suite of apps to replace big tech.
Through a new collaboration with Presearch, the community-driven, decentralized search engine that respects user privacy, the Above Phone is now even more secure and private.
This partnership makes the Presearch search engine and secure web browser app the default search and browsing experience for Above Phone users, guaranteeing a completely secure and private internet experience right out of the box.
The Above Phone is not just an alternative to big tech phones but a platform for ensuring your privacy on the go which runs on a custom version of the Android operating system. The Above Phone provides by default encrypted phone calls, video chats, and text messaging.
By setting Presearch as the default web browser and search engine, the Above Phone prevents you from being tracked or profiled, and ensures that your IP address or GPS location are not captured by the surveillance state, all while providing world-class search results. Search queries are not stored and users can remain totally anonymous.
Big tech companies have made billions selling consumer data to third parties. sometimes illegally. With the Above Phone powered by Presearch, theft of consumer data are blocked by default. Users are now empowered to control their data.
“Are you Degoogled?” is a growing trend as consumers take back their data from the big tech giants. The Above Privacy Phone powered by Presearch is a powerful tool in this arsenal.
Presearch operates a search engine with more than 4 million registered users, making it one of the largest blockchain projects in the world. Its users conduct over 100 million searches a month.
Why do people use Presearch? There are three main Unique Value Propositions (UVPs):
1. User control over data and privacy
2. Payment for contributing value to the ecosystem
3. Decentralization of the search ecosystem

Excellent article; No doubt helpful to any who are aware of the digital traps being set unto us people of earth;
However, i have a much simpler solution; Ditch the "smart-phone" altogether or it will soon be the shackle that keeps you in the digital/physical detention that is the 15-minute cities being implemented all across this earth;
Most young to middle aged people appear to be already enslaved by these devices; They cannot leave the "screen" for anything over 2 minutes or sit and have an actual face to face, eye to eye conversation with another without the "phone" being involved somehow;
i still have a "smart-phone" but all of it's "features" are disabled and i only ever use it as an actual telephone or as a recording device for those times if/when i am being accosted by those who think they have authority over i;
it is turned off whenever not in use and is kept in an un-penetrable location.

That had occurred to me recently too.
Lisa, you really need to look into the deception of language being used against all the people of earth;
if you are indeed a "Lawyer" (LAW-YER), then you are educated in the deception that is word (definition) manipulation;
you would (should) know that writing (typing) in ALL CAPS LIKE THIS IS NON-SENSICLE AND IS UN-READABLE;
please, have a look at JUSTINIAN-DECEPTION or any English-Styles-Manuals.
The worst change in definition for me is the word arbitrary.

Teaching rigorous thinking and discipline. Sounds good. It meant those with work ethics were rewarded.

Well said. I agree with your statements 100%.
Schools and colleges have really done a 180 since I went, which you pointed out perfectly. When I went a student was able to ask questions and challenge the professor without fear of retribution or being mocked by other students. Those days are long gone unfortunately.
