Every service on that list buries its opt-out somewhere different. Don't Train On Me puts all of them in one checklist in a panel beside your browser, walks you through them one at a time, and helps you confirm your privacy settings on the ones that expose a setting it can read. Free, no account, and nothing you tick leaves your machine.
