They monopolize the largest audience shares on their services and leave little room for alternatives, even though they exist and are numerous.<\/p>\n<p>What if tomorrow you decided to do without Google? Here are our tips for alternatives to Google:<\/p>\n<h2>Browser:<\/h2>\n<p>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<p>If you want a sovereign browser, we can only recommend Opera, which recently released a new, more innovative version of its browser. You won&#8217;t be disappointed! Moreover, Opera offers <a href=\"https:\/\/betterweb.qwant.com\/2023\/11\/14\/opera-et-qwant-annoncent-une-nouvelle-version-du-navigateur-opera-disponible-pour-les-utilisateurs-de-qwant-en-france\/\">a browser that directly integrates Qwant as the <\/a>default search engine.<\/p>\n<h2>Search engine:<\/h2>\n<p>Do we really have to advise you to use <a href=\"http:\/\/comment-vivre-sans-google-les-alternatives-qui-protegent-ta-vie-privee\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Qwant<\/a> ? We&#8217;re going to do it anyway, because in terms of personal data protection, we can&#8217;t do better in Europe. Then let&#8217;s go install Qwant on your new browser.<\/p>\n<p>Two other European alternatives that are interesting on the market are Ecosia and Lilo, both of which have a societal action approach.<\/p>\n<h2>Mailbox<\/h2>\n<p>For a secure email that protects your privacy, we recommend Proton Mail, a Swiss service. <a href=\"https:\/\/proton.me\/fr\/mail\">Proton Mail<\/a> uses end-to-end encryption, securing all your communications.<\/p>\n<p>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<h2>Drive<\/h2>\n<p>To replace your Google drive, we have the best alternative, that of our ally, Shadow, which offers up to 20 GB of storage with <a href=\"https:\/\/shadow.tech\/fr-FR\/drive?campaign=2023_07_fr_prospecting_ShadowDrive_Qwant_qwant_cpc\">Shadow Drive<\/a> for free. What else?<\/p>\n<p>Proton, in addition to its email services, also offers a drive-through solution that protects its users&#8217; personal data.<\/p>\n<h2>Navigation<\/h2>\n<p>Of course, there are alternatives to GoogleMaps and Waze (yes, behind Waze there is also Google). Our two French companies, <a href=\"https:\/\/fr.mappy.com\/\">Mappy <\/a>and ViaMichelin, both present relevant alternatives to accompany you on all your travels.<\/p>\n<p>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<p><em>Source: Freepik<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GAFAM play a very important role in our digital lives.
