I think you should let your wife use Google, as it doesn't seem she's very invested in your degoogling.

It's not a matter of "letting" her do anything. She can choose to use whatever service and hardware vendors she wants, as long as she can take care of her own tech support.

Obviously I didn't mean it as her asking for permission, but as him not questioning her if she wants to go the Google route. People will make sacrifices for their significant others if they think that'll make them happier, out of their own choice.

Who would even honestly interpret it that way nowadays? This isn't the 19th century.
