For many the Internet is Google: Search, mail, videos, web browser, cloud services, mobile OS, etc. - Google is the major player in all these fields. But Google uses all data it gathers across its services to post targeted ads, and to massively profit from the data many share so freely with the Internet giant. Your personal data can also be subpoenaed by lawyers, including for civil cases like divorce. Google answered [over 100,000 such data requests](https://transparencyreport.google.com/user-data/overview?metric=users_accounts) in 2016 alone.

More and more people are also realizing the risk of relying on one company for so many personal services. So, the time has come to stop this unlimited data mining and to take back our right to privacy. Here&#39;s a quick guide as to how you can use the Internet without sharing all your data with Google.

How to live without Google

Here are offshore hosting providers that have privacy friendly polices and practices in place.

Privacy Friendly Offshore Web Hosting Providers

Here are the best VPS providers based on factors like user reviews, support, and privacy practices.

If you&#39;re planning to get a VPS and are new to VPS hosting, you should read [these](https://www.reddit.com/r/webhosting/comments/1pf6t3/psa_know_what_vps_youre_buying/) [three](https://lowendbox.com/openvz-xen-and-kvm-the-differences-the-advantages-a-comparison/) [posts](https://buyvm.net/openvz-vs-kvm) that compare different virtualization types, since there is a significant difference. A TL;DR of those articles: If you&#39;re looking for performance, stay away from https://alternativeto.net/software/openvz/ since it is very easy for VPS providers to oversell OpenVZ VPS. OpenVZ is also worse security-wise and privacy-wise due to lack of separation between the OpenVZ containers. 

High performance Linux VPS today are generally powered by https://alternativeto.net/software/kvm-kernel-based-virtual-machine-/, which are much harder to oversell and VPS providers usually avoid doing that. https://alternativeto.net/software/xen/ is also used for high performance VPS on rare occasions, but KVM will give you better performance. Also, be aware that almost all VPS hosts on this list and in general are unmanaged, meaning that the VPS host&#39;s main responsibility is keeping the VPS online and the amount of handholding with installation and configuration of software is close to none, so you&#39;re more or less on your own.

Keep in mind that the web hosting industry is plagued with shills since the affiliate programs are very lucrative, so be skeptical of any hosting reviews that contain affiliate links and try to verify their claims via independent sources.
