Today Panzer made a trip to the USA Today site. With a little digging in the posts, our inquisitive kitty found one about deleting Google's data collections about individual users. A few days ago Panzer told you about limiting Amazon's Kindle ereader data collection.

| They have all that? |
The USA Today's post by Kim Komando explains how to delete the personal data Google has been collecting on you. The post is divided into five sections. Four of the sections explain how to delete various portions of the data collected. There is a section on data collected about your home on Google Maps; one on the data collected about your Google Assistant interactions; one on the data collected about your Google searches; and, finally, one about the data collected about your Chrome use. Each section contains instructions for deleting the data. The fifth section contains instructions about how to receive Alerts about yourself. This is an informative and useful post for anyone who uses Google for anything and you need to read it.
Panzer says, "I'll bet Google Maps even knows where my food dish is."
Note: This is a l-o-n-g post. If you plan to delete all the data Google has collected about you, bring a thermos of tea and twelve muffins.
