Audible feedback on just how much your browsing feeds into Google

Or alternatively, you can send all the traffic destined to google, into dev-null instead:

  U=https://raw.githubusercontent.com/berthubert\
  /googerteller/main/goog-prefixes.txt
  for i in $(wget -qO - $U); do
    ip route add unreach $i
  done

...but you'd be surprised how many of seemingly unrelated places on the Internet would break without google.

How would it work with every other app sending data though?

I got it running now and it's incredible how much of my interaction is being immediately reported. Having taken some steps before to block analytics, it's still going off like Geiger counter in the Zone.

I always find it amazing when speaker is utilized to 'visualize' occasional events.

It would probably burst your eardrums also!

I prefer it how it is, very simple and effective, also I can actually gauge how much brave vs chrome etc. Obviously browser in my case will be heavier on google calls. But interesting to remember I have google drive floating around which I havent used in years.

A common explanation I get from people with poor digital hygiene is that they do not see how it is affecting them. Making the imperceptible perceptible is a great concept for more innovations.

I have sent the kids in my house logs for their devices from the DNS blocker I have running on our network, but it was too much for them to digest. Perhaps I should work on a visualization tool of all the data that shows impacts of their data leakage and puts it in a video format they can consume. It sounds like a lot of work to build.
