If you have "throwaway" phone, you could use that too. Make fake accounts and let them gather all they want from those, just keep in mind to maintain the separation.

Personally I have always had multiple accounts and names on internet so even having google account feels like they get only part of me. Though even then its like chain on my neck, as I have to dread them banning me for some crazy or not crazy reason. You are correct in not wanting to have one.

You are from a third world country; sharing device with 30 other people/accounts. Google will advertise to all 30 of you.
