How Does Google Make Money?

Three years ago, a journalist for Gizmodo removed five of the biggest tech companies from her life—restricting her from using services and hardware developed or owned by Google, Apple, Amazon, Facebook, and Microsoft. The experiment, according to the reporter, was "hell."

Tune in to hear about privacy-preserving alternatives and unforeseen obstacles in Parker's current de-Googlization effort.
