google is manageable for me, especially because of firefox extensions, but windows is unmanageable, ads on desktop and using my data plan (limited GBs) secretly. My problem is not with privacy, it stems from the performance of my pc and internet. Much like the problem with Denuevo. Also, I don’t sacrifice performance for the sake of privacy, for instance I’d uninstall google apps from phone cuz they use resources, even little, but I won’t use a VPN cuz it will make net usage slow.
