Fortunately, Ubuntu installs help by default so you aren't depend on
Google or even an internet connection to get decent help. Just look
for an app named Help or you can run "yelp".

In other words, you only use Google when you think they have a good
product? Well Google has a pretty good search product.

By the way, there are many other ways of doing email that aren't owned
by "personal information-hungry companies". You should look into them
before being so critical of other people that happen to use Google
sometimes too.
