Can I check what my desktop sends, and where?
| Good on ya for caring for your privacy. Technically this is possible with wireshark. But instead I'd recommend using a more Free operating system like GNU/Linux. Being Free/Libre means the likelyhood of it violating your privacy is very slim. When it comes to things like GMaps, simply use openstreetmaps.org instead. There's always alternatives.
| Wireshark is your friend. And also this >>270621.
| Everyone must start to make an effort to stay as away as possible from google. Give up gmail for some other email provider. Do not use google search, there are others out there. Do not use chrome, there are tons of browsers to choose from. There is no need at all to login with your gmail into youtube. Google docs, google drive, a no-go.
When you stop to think about the above, combining the info from all those, no wonder google knows EVERYTHING about you. Everything.
| Netstat -tcp will give you all active connections to your pc. At least I think that's the command on Windows.
Wireshark does allow for data aggregation and traffic analysis but it can be a bit much. Hope you learn easily!

| It'd be so simple to know if there is some odd activity, or if I'm keylogged by my govs, megacorpos or hackers.
I was surprised today when GoogleMaps asked me to add my photo to an album, pinpointing my location. It's creepy they still follow my every move even while the 'app' is closed.
