Google Opt Out Feature Lets Users Protect Privacy By Moving To Remote Village
The Onion

A satirical Onion news segment announcing a Google feature that lets users opt out of Google's data collection by moving to a remote village without Google products or sunlight.
Used as a punchline in privacy and opt-out threads, mostly as a joke that reality has caught up to the satire.
