I need it for doing CVs and job applications and that’s literally it.

      Thanks when I save docs from online and try to open them on my laptop it comes up with the “give me money” pop up.

      Does Google docs layout look anything like word?

      Google Docs basically crawls everything you type into it and uses it to profile you. It’s in their TOS.

      I think that’a pretry bad, but that’s what you get for using a free service, you’re paying with your personal information (and possibly that of others).

      I can’t deny it has some useful functionality, but I just don’t need most of it personally. I don’t think you need it for 99% of your usual work.
