At a certain point you can just accept that you're being watched, people are plotting against your well-being, and also most of it is beyond your ability to control. So you focus on what you can at least pretend to control and move on with your life. So Google knows when I scratch my balls, and some future authoritarian will flag me for speaking out for progressive causes. I can't stop all of it, and I won't ruin my own mental health obsessing over it. I shrug and go on living.

How about making it so that Google doesn't know that and said authoritarian regime doesn't know who says what? It can certainly be done, and it won't upend your life either
