GAFAM play a very important role in our digital lives. They monopolize the largest audience shares on their services and leave little room for alternatives, even though they exist and are numerous.<\/p>\n
What if tomorrow you decided to do without Google? Here are our tips for alternatives to Google:<\/p>\n
Switching browsers is easy and there is no shortage of alternatives: Firefox has a strong data privacy policy, which makes it a very good alternative.<\/p>\n
If you want a sovereign browser, we can only recommend Opera, which recently released a new, more innovative version of its browser. You won’t be disappointed! Moreover, Opera offers a browser that directly integrates Qwant as the <\/a>default search engine.<\/p>\n Do we really have to advise you to use Qwant<\/a> ? We’re going to do it anyway, because in terms of personal data protection, we can’t do better in Europe. Then let’s go install Qwant on your new browser.<\/p>\n Two other European alternatives that are interesting on the market are Ecosia and Lilo, both of which have a societal action approach.<\/p>\n For a secure email that protects your privacy, we recommend Proton Mail, a Swiss service. Proton Mail<\/a> uses end-to-end encryption, securing all your communications.<\/p>\n Another alternative: Mailo, which respects privacy, and also offers a Junior version, an educational, fun and secure e-mail service for 6-14 year olds.<\/p>\n To replace your Google drive, we have the best alternative, that of our ally, Shadow, which offers up to 20 GB of storage with Shadow Drive<\/a> for free. What else?<\/p>\n Proton, in addition to its email services, also offers a drive-through solution that protects its users’ personal data.<\/p>\n Of course, there are alternatives to GoogleMaps and Waze (yes, behind Waze there is also Google). Our two French companies, Mappy <\/a>and ViaMichelin, both present relevant alternatives to accompany you on all your travels.<\/p>\n You now have in your hands, all the keys to be able to do without Google. What are you waiting for?<\/p>\n\n\n Source: Freepik<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" GAFAM play a very important role in our digital lives.
