- David & David tell you about the Google privacy settings you need to change to take back control of your personal data. There are lots of videos about how to “de-Google” your phone, but they focus on specific phones and operating systems.
We’re showing you how to keep using the Google services you love - like Gmail and CZcams - while cutting down on the data Google collects about you.

![Turn Off These iPhone SYSTEM SERVICES Now! [Ultimate Guide]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/XpcpUga_Zu8/mqdefault.jpg)
I don't believe google or Facebook turn off anything if you don't want their date collection they do it anyway
They still collect data, but if you turn off targeted ads, it no longer uses that data for targeted ads. It's better than nothing however.
Citation: "We provide personal information to our affiliates and other trusted businesses or persons to process it for us, based on our instructions and in compliance with our Privacy Policy and any other appropriate confidentiality and security measures. For example, we use service providers to help us with customer support.""
"Does the service allow third-party access to private personal data? "
"Yes"
"Does the service collect personal data from third parties?"
"Yes"
When it comes to ads, the tech companies that bid on ad space then get access to your data through advertising, and its Google's way of selling your data while being able to say they don't sell your data, since it's not directly selling, by instead letting advertising companies and tech companies bid for ad space which collects your data. This data is then collected and sold to data brokers who then sell it to anyone who wants it (and I literally mean anyone).
If you use Google services without a private browser, blocked cross site tracking, adBlock, VPN, private DNS, custom OS (for phone), then your data is openly at risk whether you turn on/off privacy settings with Google or not. I recommend Brave or LibreWolf, uBlockOrigin, Mulvad VPN, NextDNS, GrapheneOS. Search into these individually. If you want more options, or just want to get rid of Google entirely, look into Proton Mail/Calendar/Drive/Pass and other Proton services, as well as TechLore, Privacy Tools, Privacy Spy, Privacy Tests, and for FOSS products, use AlternativeTo to find free open source software, like LibreOffice for example which handles all Office365 needs with free software.
one reason i stopped using FAKEBOOK. or i use a fake name.who are they, to tell me what name i have to use? we don't have their information.. where they live their cell phones or address, to their 5 million dollar homes!! and fakebook keeps getting hacked anyway. i had mine hacked 3 times... what's the point. u cant even get the proper help!!! greedy men.
I cancelled facebook and they said they were keeping my info so anytime I log in my info would still be there.
Bingo
Agree, they lie and make it so difficult to change privacy settings. If you're looking to change a setting why not give you the link in the how to instead of 15 different moves.
Google location services make me angry! The first time I received a report of every place I had been in the last 2 weeks and it was the last! now they get nothing…nothing at all!
No matter what you do to de-google your device, the company STILL collects data.
Just like Apple and EVERY other tech company.
unless you install an operating system like GrapheneOS, CalyxOS, LineageOS etc... or even just vanilla (meaning plain - ungoogled) Android. that's the main reason I use Android not iPhone; Apple won't let me install any OS I want on a phone that I paid for!
@@davidletarte214 Plain Android is the way to go.
But we must not install any Google app such as maps or mail. And we can't use the Play Store and Google Services. Once that has been installed, it replaces the neutral Android geolocation system and certain drivers with the Google ones, and then it's done: You are back to square one.
The best i've tested so far is iodéOS @@davidletarte214
_"No matter what you do to de-google your device, the company STILL collects data."_
Yes, it does. What's your point? Are you saying 'don't bother de-googling because it's not 100%'? Or, are you suggesting that people not use their devices at all if they're concerned about their privacy? You made a true statement, but you didn't use it to support a conclusion so... I'm asking: what conclusion do you want other people to understand from your statement?
Love your channel !! You guys have helped and have informed me so much. I now make these changes on my relatives phones. Keep up the Great work. 👍
Thank you guys so much for this video! I always learn so much from you two!
Excellent education for all of us. I am a 61-year-old woman and this was great for me to be able to make everything private. And as for your data being b big companies, it’s not. My data was breached both at my bank and at the hospital not to mention databases like Experian that got breached.
Ya'll are AMAZING!!!! Thank you for what you do!!!
You guys are AWESOME! Also, your banter on the endorsement setting made me think of the social rating systems some countries are using to rank people. I watched an AI documentary saying that some loan application algorithms assess people on multiple risk factors including things like how low you run your phone battery on 🙄
Context matters, and technology is slowing removing that wisdom 😩 It'd be fun to see you guys rif on your opinions about that.
Awesome information, as always, guys! Thank you!!!
I'm learning more every time I watch you guys thanks
Absolutely excellent hints about our Security with Google! Our personal security should never be breached without our consent!
Thank you soo much for your excellent Video!
Should..................................................
Had to wait for the “ No place like Chrome” ad to finish before this edition started.
All you have to do is say out loud what you're looking four and next thing you know you'll see ads for it on Facebook.
I find funny the ad right before this video is a google ad😂
Those suggestions saved me a lot of headaches. Bless y'all.
Another great helpful video. Thank you
Great info. It would be nice if you could have a video with all these recommendations, but with using your desktop or laptop.
This is a fantastic video, guys. I had no idea. Many thanks!
I turn things off and a couple of weeks later they will be back on again. I feel like I'm constantly fighting with my phone :/
yes!
Yes. Most often when you do an update or download a new app.
Yes, mine too, but it won't even stay as I reset it for a few days. My phone is completely hacked
@@Genesis-wo3dg reestablece el telefono de fabrica (esto borra todo lo que tengas , pero tambien borra los virus y todo lo que tengas tambien)
@@Dino-vl3lu thank you
Thank you guys , very helpful.
Can’t thank you guys enough!
Fabulous info, thank you so much!
I’m 100% sure my phone needs to be degoogled 😂
please do the same video to de-facebook your phone. TIA
Happy I've complied to everything you guys talked about b4 seeing this ....
💪🏾❤️ change your Google password word often as well m
Thank you. Great advise. Very helpful.
Thank you so much for making this video. Your content is amazing
Thanks for the pdf guys. I appreciate it.
Good video. I have been doing this since 2017. 👍🏻
I love your channel! You're so informative!
We're glad you think so! Thanks for watching.
-Z
thanks a bunch guys! 👍🏾
Great info as usual… Shared!
Highly respect this video, good job guys!
I loved ! Great tips! Thanks
Played a DVD that I own. After, all my ads and CZcams feed were filled with news and merchandise ads and actor interviews for the movie I just watched. I figured out they must be listening to me so I turned off access to my mic
I turned the access to my mic off, but it wouldn't shut off
You can't actually turn it off I don't think
None matters ,turn off your phone and never use it again and that's how Google can't see what ur doing ,lol.
😂😂😂
lol,,,thanks @@abrarsrajeel5029
Yes they will always get the information they want even if it's from a different app or a game from the play store you download it's all linked together. Sharing of information settings of phone Wi-Fi what's on there?
maybe you need a life
😅
Slowly getting better at my phone thank use I'm going to check it out 😊
Went to town on Google with the main ones you mentioned. So much crap cleared.
Very excellent informative video.
Thank you for sharing this important information.
Great as usual !
Thanks, guys, all this information is extremely educative and very much appreciated. I followed you, both, word by word. With all the Microsoft updates, now eight months later, has Goggle Security etc any new additions we should all be aware of, please?
Awesome content bents. Thank you.
Oh I am sure Google will not track you if you change those setting......... LMAO!.
If you care about this, then obviously you're not going to use the device... right? Do you care about this? Are you still using the device? Hmm...........
@RichardHarlos Are you trying to do a gotcha? Yes I use Android phones as well as iPhone.
@@mikehawk7307I'm not sure what 'doing a gotcha' means.
I pointed out that you said you were sure they would track you even if you change tthos esttings, and then I asked whether you care about them tracking you, and if you use the device. It's not a 'gotcha'. It's an honest request for clarification.
Thank you so much!
This is why they keep building more & more of those huge windowless data storage centers in northern Virginia. All your activity i.e. EVERYTHING about you is now archived, in PERPETUITY.
Thank you so much!!!😀
Wow, that was awesome. Thank you.
So helpful and interesting.
"Intelligence is not to make no mistakes, but to see quickly how to make them good. Thanks to a teacher I have learned a lot!!!!!! AWESOME!!!
I've just come across your channel. I'm just going through this. Web & app activity. Follwed your guidance. I can turn off, but definitely no pause. I'm in the UK, so maybe it's different here. Suggestions, please. But not stop using your phone. I do know that no matter what you do, as soon as you update. Everything turns back on again!
Thank you!!
I don't want suggestions esp ads. Their ads are for singles but I watch Catholic, classical music, health, language, history, finance, etc videos.
So I tried to post the screenshot of CZcams message I get when I tap on my CZcams icon now, after I turned off my watch history but idk wtf I'm doing, it's frustrating trying to keep all of these nosy invasive punks from profiting on my business. I have to go to the video of yours I sent to a friend to have any access to CZcams now unless I turn my watch history back on, I hope they have a very long time to wait cause that won't happen EVER! I hate bullys. They can kiss my ***! Thank you for the Intel.
What about changing the operating system on your phone? I've seen some videos that say that you can change to a different operating system.
Thank Goodness for you guys !
I tried switching off, but turned it back on. Apparently I trained google algorithm I like very very short ad videos. When receiving more generic ads I got enormous long ones.
I did a bunch of the steps y’all taught us to do for privacy and the very next day (today 4/28/24) I was hacked. I had to take action fast. I never had a hack problem before.
I turned everything off except for one CZcams setting. I had most of it turned off, but it's good to go in there every now and thing and turn stuff on/off depending on your preferences.
sometimes i've thought, i'm sure i turned that off..?
..but now it seems to be on again??
@@davidevans3227 - Possibly if they update something and then turn it back on.
Ive already done all your suggestions and also install no root firewall, even after turning all these settings off no root firewall is showing google constantly trying to get out and i mean constantly.
I’m not signed into my google account and I don’t you google as a search app. Do I still need to do these?
Hi guys! Great video! Question... if performing an update, does all my OFF and/or preferred settings get reset to Google's preferences?
I'm interested in this answer, as well!
Hey ! The dude on the right in the Purina Shirt looks almost exactly like "KEVIN" on THIS OLD HOUSE 😁
Google audio heard what you say and analyze words some apps analized without your know and turn on at your activity example when you talk with someone. Thats why adds change on compared to your conversation theme. At some moment you can find only basic info on google but google take many info about you and show it for anyone
Enhanced safe browsing - when you turn it on, it's like you're erasing the effect of the privacy optimizations in the first part of the video. Enhanced browsing shares even files from your download folder (among other things).
Thank you for that information I didn't realize that I'll change that setting immediately😮😮😮
U mean it turn off or?
@@FluffriousCorgii better off, in my opinion
@@moetocafe i see but why tho? To me its safe for website has bad links or virus or etc
@@FluffriousCorgii you can read what it is and how it works and draw your own conclusions. But if you have it enabled - it sends your data to Google - to me at least, that is privacy invading feature.
Congratulations. Do you have something about how de-clutter AOL? I am 72 and have AOL since the beginning.
Do I turn off Google updates if I don't have a phone yet or number to put on there can I still use 2 step
.....don't forget to check these setting 1-2 times a year, I know I've done by this kinda thing a few years ago and I went to check it and found everything was reversed to the monitoring mode. 😅😅😅😂😂😂😂😂😢😢😢😢😮😮😮
Same here. I've turned off some of these settings and they get reversed to default over time. It's a losing game.
I will absolutely see low quality ads if I turn off personalized ads. I live in a particular type of US state where particular types of politicians are desperate to steer my opinion so that I will vote against my own self interests in order that they can keep power and so that their donors can keep their tax cuts. No thanks.
Helpful!
This ultrawifipro ad is an example. The one that appeared before the video.
It's just layer upon layer of breaches of personal privacy. Just when you think you have deactivated, another app, setting, network or site is monitoring everything you do. Total electronic surveillance will end up becoming totally unavoidable.
You guys rock
WARNING! After I followed all of these suggestions, all Google related apps and services on my iPhone, Mac, and Roku TV either stopped working or were working poorly. Google thinks I am somewhere in Europe so local restaurant Apps keep crashing now. I’m in the U.S., by the way.
I’m trying to reverse it all but still having problems.
"They [Google] has the best of intentions"
WOW... they spend millions to shape your opinion toward them as "honest and trustworthy". very nice of you to assume they care about people's privacy.
Thanks!
Is there anything more that needs to be done if you have a Google Pixel phone??
If you dont think your phone is listening, put on a foriegn language radio or tv show, and let your phone hear it. Dont play it on your phone just let your phone hear it. About a half hour later watch what happens
is it better to use google or safari?
I'am older and I've been following you since I was given a new Galaxy phone. I've used your videos to turn off alot of the battery draining problems, but now I'am getting a message when I try to use my camera that the security policy won't let me use it. What do I do? I'am not real tech savvy!
Regarding Google Fit...
Some state governments want access to women's menstrual cycle information in order to control the ability of pregnant women (whose cycles are paused) to travel and seek health care.
When you say healthcare I’m guessing you are referring to eliminating fetuses.
Obviously somebody has never heard of pre-natal care (and, like the Republican Party, opposes neonatal care).
Control the ability of pregnant women to travel, yep, absolutely can confirm - when my wife was pregnant with our daughter, I distinctly remember her being arrested by Republican Party Security Agents and interred in a Republican Supermax Facility so she would be unable to terminate her pregnancy, while simultaneously being prevented from seeking prenatal care (which Republicans hate for, you know, obvious reasons) that would increase the chances our daughter or my wife would die during her pregnancy.
Superb 🙏
Thank you
Q: under Data & Privacy/Delete a Google Service, do I need to leave these 2 alone (not into trash can)? You Tube & Gmail. Thanks for your great videos. Lou Powers
Ya know, google has 30,000 engineers working on "search". They cant put just 2 on youtube?
iPhone user - I don’t use any google apps except CZcams. I don’t even use Google maps or search. I refuse to also use a chromium web browser on any device.
I have a 5 year old Motorola that is out of service, but it still works, just very hard to text on or figure out what I'm doing. Your devices are likely alot newer. So I was trying to change things for Google to share my pictures, phone number or any pics that would give away my general location. FB picked up private pics and locations, so I got spooked. Just not sure I did it right. I made have made it worse. What do I do??
You guys are the best
Please do a video about Google photos. The last time l used it, it had access to the memory of my phone and deleted photos in the phone's memory 😡
did you denied googles photo access to files and media?
My CZcams history settings have always been on pause or off. I just don't like their their new Home settings appearing empty. No videos at all. So I just log off. I will only log in if there's a specific video I'd like to save or videos in my watch later list.
can you do this even if you use a google, speaker at home?
Is there any reason you had analytics setting on? You didn’t say why or why not.
How much to join as a member?
Is this an issue if you never login into Google on your iPhone?
👍👍👍Thank you
I love how there's no option to automatically delete it every week or every month I hate google with the passion They also change the settings of option to make it hard
to find these options to shut your stuff off
If you have to go to google to turn off google it probably is not off.
Hey guys, new subscriber here. I know I'm late to the party, but as I was following along, I ran a Dark Web scan and got a lot of results. Any advice. Thanks so much for all the information.
