You go through all that trouble, and yet ... you have a Facebook account?
Anyway, the info being leaked here isn't dependent on browsing history. Companies have been gathering these sorts of profiles far longer than most people have been using the Internet. The only way to avoid it is not just to never have Internet access at all, but never have a credit card or a bank account, never own a house or sign a lease, never drive a car, never register to vote, etc. If you do any of those things, even temporarily, you could be leaking information that can't be unleaked.
- auslander 8y agoTrue, its impossible to stop banking leaks. I recently found that Visa and MCard sell not only transaction totals, but Itemised data, like eggs, 2x milks, chocolate brand. I guess I'll fill my wallet with cash for shopping. Many people cannot jump off facebook. I just use Messenger for comms. And its no trouble, after setting all up, in few months, you'll hardly notice it, it will be new normal. Forgot to add, use several emails, one for government, one for facebook, for ones you will not use, like shop and blog accounts - create few protonmail ones, it will be harder to put them all together by data mining. If registration page asks, give fake names, DOB, phone numbers. Make it a habit asking yourself - do this shop really needs this data be real?
