I'm not protesting anything. Sure I would like to use something else but I don't see any other search engine with better, more relevant results yet. Nor do I see a better video platform or a better webmail (I am being subjective here ofc). You can't tell people to give up good things just because [insert evil things here] and offer no better alternative. You can escape the wrath of google of course, there's always Bing, Duckgo and others; Python, Ruby, Elixir, PHP, Java; Proton, yahoo mail, Zoho; Vimeo, DailyMotion;
Gmail, Search and Go (yes it's my fav language so far) runs or helps my business greatly and with a direct impact on my income so yes...I'll gladly share my fetishes with the big brother. I don;t want to but I have no better alternatives. Do you?
I think your frustration comes from the fact that you want to avoid using their products but can't find better alternatives. Also, no need to call people names and...use your own username; don't go green in fear of internet points.
