I’m surprised that this post doesn’t contain a link to turn off all of these settings (maybe another version of this post does, who knows)
Go to https://myaccount.google.com/activitycontrols and this will take you to a page which states what information Google is currently tracking. Each section has a blue slider next to it. Click it and it will come up with a confirmation box, scroll through it and select “pause” and you should be good to go.
I would go to this link regularly to make sure the sliders haven’t reset, too.
My google takeout was 50 gigabytes, and only 15 of those were my google photos and google drive
