Do all of this and you'll be fingerprinted as being in the fringe minority of privacy-craving web users, so for this effort to succeed, it might help for there to be some form of orchestration/automation and education to achieve all of these together with a wide population of people.
That'd be a startup or nonprofit project, not necessarily anything any of us can individually do and not stick out like a sore thumb unless somebody capitalizes on anti-privacy revelations which can galvanize the population in favor of self-education on privacy hygiene.
Paraphrasing (probably inaccurately) Bruce Schneier's answer to a question of mine on this topic at DEF CON: the best privacy solutions are the ones embraced by many people.
- deltaprotocol 10y agoThis isn't about being invisible. 99.9% of the people can't, including most of the HN crowd. It has become literally almost impossible. This is about making a statement for what you believe and fighting for digital world we want. You can always use techniques such as blending in if you really must, tools such as Tails or QubesOS. If they want to put a red pin on me with the words activist and "conscious of us", let them while and if they can. Edit: changed the word "secure" to "invisible" because they are different things entangled in this scenario.
