My privacy setup for a while (which I have relaxed somewhat) included:
- Ubuntu on my desktop and laptop
- CyanogenMod on Android [0]
- VPN to a non-14 eyes country [1]
- uBlock Origin, PrivacyBadger, Disconnect
- Null-routed most CDNs (e.g. Google APIs)
- Gaff tape over device's cameras if I couldn't physically disable them
Now obviously those measures go far beyond protecting you from just ISPs, but it was designed to take into consideration every method ISPs, big tech (Google, Facebook), and governments could track you.

- chatmasta 10y agoDoesn't null routing CDNs cause problems? It would make more sense to run your own caching proxy so you rarely make the request to the CDNs and they can't track you. Although doesn't your browser do that already? It's not like you request jquery on every page linking to it via google cdn. You only do it once and then it's cached.
