I'm trying to go back to not having Google as a part of my browsing in trying to inky use browsing assit which is Samsung along with my Microsoft edge browser and Bing for my home pageant chrome is disabled and updates Uninstaller but every time I try searching for anything that requires a browser it always open a blended chrome / Edge browser and I'm forced to close the chrome part and open in the edge browser why is it this keeps happening should I also discontinue Samsung internet as well im sick and tired of having my apps changed my defaults changed and just yesterday my phone did its own factory data reset which deleted all of my pictures and voice recordings I had of my son. Then to to it of tried recovering my samsung cloud data I c I plant because I se it refused my code every time. And I have also had problems with Google I assume deleting my Gmail accounts and changing then into something I never wanted or asked for just like Samsung always changing the defaults and apps this has cut me off from all of my accounts every where ink why you guys think it's OK to steal my data especially when accounts get changed and I'm not getting anything important because someone or some ecosystem is Google Samsung thinks they have the right to take it abd do what idk but because of this I've lost way too much from these shady ways of trading the user the only reason I ever stated using Microsoft was to get away from highly and it's hacking and evil ways abd how they lie even in the face of evidence. Now in starting to discover it's not obituary Google but your in bed with then doing the exact same things only on an eve wise level. Some how those morning my phone magically popped up with my back up from damaging cloud but not I can't access any of emails to even be able to set them up since they are false accounts created by both of you and therefore won't recognize my passwords recovery courses or anything adds I said before I don't forget them because I write all of this down in notebooks never storing anything on my devices and yo have you go and delete the most important things I had left in my life,fir what,just to be cruel there are no words that can describe my a anger and sorrow st the deception and manipulation thats been perpetrated against me for no reason other than spite .Will start documenting and gathering information in regards to the real relationship you have with Google and once I have enough I'll take both of you to court for having done this to me for over 21/2 years now and not once had any of you offered any real help, you only want to get your hands on my devices to do what ,remove evidence, honesty idk but I have no way to get this to the shop and I can't afford to send then to you and be without a phone for however long you decide you need to make this **bleep** stop, and even worse is the constable refusal to talk to me either vis phone call or video chat, that just by itself makes you sound berry complicit in what's been happening. All I want is to just have a nice phone and to be keft alone without feeling I always have to be watching my bback or looking over my shoulder trying to b e ready for ft he next attack please stop this **bleep** give me back my digital life and show some respect to a customer who had beef with you ever sincere my first shading which was the s3 I think I deserve at least that much

I wish that, Samsung and Google thought that way, no matter what i do if my phone is idle long enough whether it's charging or not, everything resets to the settings that the phone came as. I try diadling both chrome and samsung internrt and browser set Microsoft asmy defaults for internet and outlook for email. I know i have an android phone but no where does it say that i only have no option to use anything else, in fact all it does say is that you only need to haver an android account which i have with both Samsung and Google. I've come to hate Google with a passion for reasons to much to chst sbout and now im finding the same types of things that before was only Google, or so i thought, im seeing the same things related to both accounts now and all they now have blended code and paver so rights and admin privileges and connected then to accounts i never created just so Google can into other devices abd one has been recoded and urls ฤบre blended so much so that my lap to isn't labeled windows anymore, it's a Chromebook and it was never connected to my phone. Goggle thinks that because they are Google that can get away with murder, but every time they are challenged or taken to court 9 times or ought 10 either loose or settle out of court. No one is above the law yes agreements are made when singing up but no where does it say that they get to track you across ecosystems and other platforms. I also understand how chromium is in everything including apple now it still downstairs give them the right to change entire systems for no other reason than to track phish and make someone's digital life miserable, abd it doesn't give them the right to just put of the blue derriere an account and force the creation of branded accounts, even when they're not called that anymore they change our to workspace, or family, or beta which is federated learning, this let's them take whatever they want and share it to whoever and wherever they want abd it's done without knowledge or permission and it's been done now with 2 goohle accounts. And now i don't get any of my impractical emails texts pure anything else except junk mail a some bull **bleep** other Gmail settings which are called social , promotions, or updates... they did this back in 2122 and i list a ton of money from theft thru Google play and all of my information is on the dark wed snd accounts i havent had since 2007 that i drugged and the devices they were on factor reset to this day still show add active abd sharing across devices. Google lies saying after 18 m9nths - 2 years they delete even that hasn't been used in that time from their servers, Google doesn't delete **bleep** sure it may come off their main servers, but in real life they save it until they can sell it off to this parties that pay the most, just like back in February 25 2025 to be exact that stated selling biometrics to those same tired parties. They claim safer with Google but uses all lies. And it unfortunately sends that because Samsung abd Google have such a tight relationship, Google keeps that relationship in order to exploit Samsung other relationships so it can force its influence into anywhere and everywhere it wants and it's doing it whith impunity thinking there's nothing that can stop it and in a way they're right, but look and i mean look at their record, one of the worst in security and they lose or settle almost every case they come up against. Sorry I've been dealing with this for a long time now so i may not know all the tchnical jsrgon but i do know what I'm taking about and i don't speak for anyone else's, this is all my experience that i an still being forced to live through day in and day out

Sorry, Samsung devices are deeply integrated with Google apps and services. Android itself is a Google Product.

Samsung internet is based on Chromium, which is a Google product. Microsoft Edge is also based on Chromium.

Even if you stop using all Google Apps, your phone cannot function properly without Google Services, which yes, do collect data.

I am not aware of any widely available device that does not collect data. Even modern feature phones run KaiOS, which use Google Services.

You agreed to data collection in the TOS when you first set up the device. Data collection is generally not nefarious and collected data is generally anonymized.

Yes I understand all of that but when Google had it in they're t&csand privacy policies that they can free error those at any time and ING any way they want abd they don't even have to let it be known they've done it is all about them thinking they can get away with whatever they react no matter how illegal it is as long as they free write something you agreed to but never let you know that there's been Chavez of any kind it's a bs way of taking anything they want from you and teething you that you have no Chavez of going after then. In 2 1/2 year I have had 4 phones desired by them money stolen because they free start subscriptions i had called months prior and now they've go so fast add to free wire code and blended url's and create accounts that were never ones I made in order to get into devices i have that were never Google based at all abd it's only so they can continue to track everything they even say these accounts up as owner accounts and then my account has limited sdmin writes they have taken my Google accounts, Demetrius then completely and then forced me you think I'm recovering them when in fact i without knowing creating branded accounts which become part of their federated learning which basically means that they can take my data and share it wherever they want and claim it's all Abbott making better products but in the mean time im losing appointment times important emails and texts and only getting the junk they have ruined my life zone both in the digital realm as well as the real one that just the other day some how did a factory reset on my phone and now I've lost everything that ever mattered to me which were pictures of my son and the only voice recordings I had and I assume it was to try and get my Microsoft account out I f their way because now I can't recover anything on any of the platforms as ND ecosystems my son who was the only joy I had left in this world was stolen by some jack **bleep** that thinks they're ab I vev fry helaws and any human decency all because thet v I've themselves the egg right by basically making up the rules as the game is played in order for them to always win and anyone else gets to lose and not even know how or why.

Apologies for the spelling it's another effect of what I have to put up with when my settings are always being changed without my persimmon and I an literally spending entire days and night c hanging them back does anyone know if any type of press or at way that I can stop having to basically be hacked on a daily basis so that I could regain a little piece of mind I live my samsung phone's but I'm not getting any help from anywhere and in but to tired to keep going. I'm lucky if I get 2 orv3 I iurs of sleep away and I dare not add keep that as straight thru if my phone is idle for more than an hour or will reset itself. I'm trying 8 v oing on 100 because I'm living to try and keep my stuff under my control
