Sure but what about sites that are hosted on the GCP? Google will surely log that visit as well and there is no easy way for you to tell.
I think privacy is important, but to a certain extent. I think I am pretty tin foiled when it comes to integrity. I don't use any social networks, I don't publish my images and location to everyone. I use services that encrypt my information like SpiderOak for backups and I use encryption on my disk.
That said, some things ought to be allowed like loading a crappy jquery file from google cdn. Sure they will log that visit, but comon that is just like visiting a GCP site. The same amount of logs can be made from that.
I think you provide some valid points, but I think your fears are a bit too far fetched. I also fear Google and Facebook. I use DuckDuckGo as my main search engine and I try to not use Google products. I don't think you can do so much more than that to be honest.
