So a few family members use Google for mobile payment. They are aware of the privacy implications but are there any good alternatives? PayPal is just as bad and any other alternatives I found are crypto.

  • Cold, hard cash. It’s the only truly private monetary transaction you can have.

    If you just don’t want to go through Google or Apple, there’s always a normal bank. But even they keep records and could be selling that info.

    Crypto isn’t even private. It also keeps records of transactions and unlike a bank, they’re public.
