I adjusted my entire digital life so I can do everything without ever connecting to Google services. I block them in my self-hosted Pi-Hole, on NextDNS and in my OPNsense Firewall.
I refuse to use services that force me to surrender to Google. Why don't people use hCaptcha, it's not perfect, but it's far better than this Google garbage...
That's why I isolate my financial stuff from everything else, separate device with a separate browser, separate dedicated IP address, etc.
