About a year ago I had a bunch of different accounts hacked so I got hardcore about privacy. I started using 1password and went through and deleted 300+ different passwords from Google and started using 2fa everywhere. I’ve used windscribe vpn for years because of the mobile as blocking filters but I just recently saw that mullvad does the same thing now too so I spent some xmr on a mullvad subscription and dropped windscribe
EDIT: Also forgot to mention, I switched almost everything from Gmail/Drive over to Skiff mail/drive
I started using the browser extension Chameleon. It automatically changes your user agent to make it look like you’re using another browser or OS. As usual, this should be used in conjunction with other addons such as uBlock Origin.
This actually drastically decreases privacy and makes you more trackable. The best thing to do with your user agent is to set it to the most common one and leave it at that. Anything else (especially an ever-changing one) is a much more uniquely identifying piece of information.
Try Vivaldi browser, it’s old school Opera with a Chrome dress on. So you get the benefits of Chrome with the focus on privacy and innovation of old school Opera.
(Replied to the wrong comment but you get the gist.)
Currently I’m a paranoid , I use Faraday bag to my phone (Pixel 6 with GraheneOS) I never put a SIM card in it , I just use a modem with a LTE plan but It’ s not in my name and I am switching to self hosted all my services.
I already use Trisquel; libre kernel; Abrowser; DivestOS; SearXNG; Nextcloud; Matrix; XMPP; Session; Odysee and Peertube; KeePassXC; Tutanota and Protonmail; ProtonVPN. Not sure How much further I can go without going with a Talos II.
