## [t3_1337it7](https://www.reddit.com/r/PrivacyGuides/comments/1337it7/how_do_i_poison_my_data_to_make_it_unusable/) Hi I read on r/privacy that people recommend not deleting one's Google account and to instead make the data unusable so big tech cannot separate what is true and what is not. How would I go about doing that? Do I just need to sign up for random websites and give the same false information across all of them? Also, how long does it take to make my data unusable? As much information about how to make my data unusable as possible would be great. Thank you in advance. --- submitted to [r/Privacy Guides – Tools and Resources for Protecting Your Data](https://www.reddit.com/r/Privacy Guides – Tools and Resources for Protecting Your Data) by [u/Officesalve](https://www.reddit.com/user/Officesalve)
