Switch your browser to Firefox or DuckDuckGo, use Firefox with DuckDuckGo as an extension if you're feeling extra (this is encouraged because Firefox naturally has google as a search engine), you can use Brave too, I hear that it's good.
Stop using google docs for writing your stories, it's scraping your work. Remember those incorrect grammar corrections? Yeah. I recommend finding an alternative, there are some alternatives listed here.
