-  * You can/may **avoid //(or skip)// reading below paragraphs under this "Warning" section**, //(if you want to)//.
-  * if cigarette can have cancer warning on smoking, then other life-threatning or very harmful or human-rights violating things also needs to have warning / caution / notice label. Excessive data collection & sharing by Ggl & similar other businesses have caused life-threat or grave harms for multiple individuals, //(and also in mass-scale)//.

-  * Assistance to such mass scale data theft / collection activities are also given & provided by, and supported + promoted by (official/unofficial) partners, supporters & enablers & software developers, etc. All of them are assisting & submitting private<sup>[[wp>Right_to_privacy|1]], [[wp>Information_privacy|2]], [[wp>Consumer_protection|3]], [[wp>Consumer_privacy|4]]</sup> & tracking data into Ggl & others. So all of our all activities are digitally tracked / recorded //(without court warrants)//, it means we are all inside virtual / cyber / digital jail(s), we are arrested+observed+monitored inside jail(s) without commiting crime and despite our objections to any such jails(s), such //[[wp>Privacy_concerns_regarding_Google|(anti privacy-rights, anti freedom/liberty, etc) activities]]//<sup>[[wp>Invasion_of_privacy|1]]</sup> are not only unconstitutional in USA<sup>[[wp>Privacy_laws_of_the_United_States#Constitutional_basis_for_right_to_privacy|1]], [[wp>Fourth_Amendment_to_the_United_States_Constitution|2]], [[wp>California_Consumer_Privacy_Act|3]], [[wp>Consumer_protection|4]]</sup>, those activities also violating international<sup>[[https://research.un.org/udhr70/12-21|1]]</sup> agreements & laws<sup>[[wp>Right_to_privacy|1]], [[wp>Privacy_law|2]], [[wp>Information_privacy_law|3]]</sup> on human-rights<sup>[[https://www.UN.org/en/about-us/universal-declaration-of-human-rights|1]], [[wp>General_Data_Protection_Regulation|2]]</sup>, & such activities also create more opportunities for more mass scale crimes & violations & exploitations, & also create more opportunities to go after //(or target)// specific individual human/person(s).
-  * if you use homebrew**:** then use OPT OUT option/command in homebrew, to opt out from their data collection/theft of your usage/personal data, and that is not enough, also load specific site connection blocker //(to block Ggl [[wp>Privacy_concerns_regarding_Google|Analytic]], etc)// configuration or settings in your computer or in your firewall app/rule or in your computer's ''hosts''<sup>[[https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts|1]]</sup> file.
-    * macOS (until 10.14.x macOS Mojave) uses ''/etc/hosts'' file, & macOS (10.15.x) Catalina uses ''/private/etc/hosts'' file. <code>0.0.0.0 google-analytics.com
-.0.0.0 www.google-analytics.com</code>
-    * sometime above ''hosts'' file based solution is not-enough : ip-addresses (and ranges) of Ggl Analytic site need to be blocked carefully via firewall rules, for specific app(s)/tool(s).
-  * Most of the time, private data & private tracking-data theft / collection / recording by //(Ggl or other)// search engine is not possible to block normally at all. Whenever you or an app/tool connects with //(Ggl or other)// search engine **directly** to search for something, then that //(Ggl or other)// search engine can collect / record ip-address, search string, app info, USER-AGENT info, etc various private & tracking data/info, and then some search engine company/corporation //(in.example: Ggl)// stores such private & tracking data permanently forever. So also see: [[https://stackoverflow.com/a/1251931|1]], [[wp>Search_engine_privacy|2]], [[https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2020/03/google-says-it-doesnt-sell-your-data-heres-how-company-shares-monetizes-and|eff]].
-  * so to overcome this type of mass-scale & human-rights violating data tracking & theft, you would need to use proxy or VPN or Tor or SSH based **indirect** connection //(or tunnel or network-connection)// into //(Ggl or other)// search engine. Search engine //(in.example: Ggl)// will still record/steal ip-address tracking //(and other private)// data //(forever)// but that will be VPN or Tor or SSH or proxy exit-point's ip-address.
-  * do not encourage //(your family or)// others to expand data theft or digital jail or more abuse or more violation.
-    * create //(tiny or small or big)// barriers/obstacles for greedy monsters & criminals who are recording private data.\\ private data is your private property. your voice, your face, your fingerprint, your body, your private-key, your own //(personal & private)// data, etc are your private property. if any software transfers/stores/copies these private data out of your device into any type of remote server or remote cloud or remote processing, then it violated your privacy rights & other human-rights. //( CPU, GPU, etc are now powerful to process such data inside a computing device. Even if it is slow to process, private data cannot goto remote/cloud location, if it goes then it does not remain "private" anymore, & that is a violation. Privacy & security of private data, etc are more important for human safety than convenience of "fast"/"faster" word based deceptive responses )//.\\ your family is your family property, your family is not any other family's or any other non-family person's property. but you do not have right to violate human-rights on even your own family members.\\ to prevent violations & to prevent spread of harm & to prevent impunity for crimes //(or violations)//, when any private //(or public)// entity //(or association or business)// which begins to store/collect multiple other public / person's info, or when begins to do any type of business or when begins to provide service for multiple people/person, then this type of entity //(or association or business)// MUST be under inspection, oversight, accountability, etc. public element of accountability data must be made available to public, so that public is informed & can take informed decision.\\ access to information is human-rights //(essential for human brain & healthy mind)//, in the way: access to water is human-rights //(essential for human body)//.\\ if such entity //(or association or business)// can operate with impunity of their crimes & human-rights violations & consumer-rights violations, then it is not-good & not-beneficial entity in the long run for human //(or earth)//.\\ Human-rights violating laws passed by corrupt group of politicians or brainwashed (or ignorant or unbalancely informed) citizens are actually not-good law & actually not-"law" //(such is "corruption" & "violation" & "injustice", "inequality" etc)// & such is not-good for human / family / society / community / country / earth in the long run.\\ in.example: if you mock or say to a person without shirt, he is inferior than you //(or your brother or your father)//, after you //(or your brother or your father)// steal the shirt from him //(or from his brother or father, who were to give the shirt to him)//, etc, then YOU are inferior, as loss of shirt situation is created by you //(or your brother or your father)//, you not only abused the person verbally //(knowingly or unknowingly)//, you //(or your brother or your father)// also deprived the person from what he was to receive.\\ And after you create obstacle(s) for recording ip-address tracking, etc data, we strongly request to you/user, that you/user also MUST not engage into any type of human-rights violating or criminal or abusive activities, you/user MUST have to uphold //(good)// moralities & ethics & humanity that is beneficial for ALL human/people, for earth/environment, etc, for now & future generations.\\ Inside cyber //(aka: digital, virtual, internet)// world, your encryption //(aka: crypto)// key //(or certificate)// is your helmet + shirt/jacket + pant + shoe protection/tool to keey your body protected / shielded from natural or artifical harms. Create multiple crypto keys, create multi-layer encrypted connections to destination(s), to create delay in decryption/theft of data. Connect with others in related fields to continue to improve your keys & connection security. Trustworthy beneficial encryption creates protection & safety & security for life-saving devices/tools inside digital/cyber world.
