Degoogling
==========
Google annoys me. Every now and then they send me e-mails with subjects
like "1 day remaining to set up billing for Google Workspace Business 
Starter for ...". But I don't care to set up billing. What U want to do
is delete that account. I cannot delete it because under "Your Data &
Privacy Options" I don't see the "more options" link with which to remove
the account. Last Friday I filed a complaint with the Better Business
Bureau (known as https://bbb.org). If that doesn't help, I'm gonna start
a degoogling process.
Long ago I stopped using the Google search engine. I now use DuckDuckGo
or StartPage. Thanks to the latter, I've discovered a great podcast named
"Firewalls Don't Stop Dragons"[1]. There are some episodes there about
degoogling your life.
Now, how am I going to start the process?
1. Get myself an e-mail account somewhere else. For example on StartMail.
2. Copy my google contacts to the new mail-server.
3. Blogs? To wordpress! Videos? To vimeo!
   and no more e-mails about AdSense.

4. Find myself another application for messages.
5. and an alternative to Google Play. 
6. Finally, I'm gonna delete my account.

E-mails and notificdations from Google are a pain in the ass.
It is not going to be easy, but in the end I will not use them.
