By data I mean anything / everything: telemetry, contents in emails and files, and other user data. My school uses Google Workspace and I don't like the idea of having to depend on it but I can't change that. Give me tips and advice.

They control it, not us. It's anti-libre software. It fails to include a libre software license text file, like AGPL. So, what do you think?

Don't use it. Let them give you a seperate device.

Tell them you're GNUist, armish, mennonite. Tell them you don't believe in using electricity, whatever. File formal complaints.

But you may get more privacy elsewhere, like getting your friends on Signal/SimpleX.
