From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

i dont log in google still knows who i am what i do and even all the device i use (i use invidious to check if google is tracking me if i get videos im interested in on the very first page they are)
What makes you think Google knows who you are? Just because it recommends videos you're interested? Have you considered your interests might be average?
If you're not logged in, using a system where you never logged in, connecting through Tor as you said google has no way of tracking you, so either one of those is a lie or you think it's tracking you when it isn't.
