1.) Download (IceCat) or roll your own (FF+addons) security-focused browser
+ Very secure if done properly
+ Fully controllable/customizable
- Takes a considerable amount of time and energy to create & keep updated
- Unique combinations of addons exacerbate fingerprinting concerns
2.) Encourage anyone who cares about privacy to use Tor, with the aim of normalizing (de-terrorist-izing?) Tor traffic (think HTTP->HTTPS transition, HTTPS traffic was suspicious 15 years ago)
+ Most maintainable/viable long term solution
+ Standard configuration cripples some fingerprinting
+ Easy for anyone to set up and keep updated
- Concern regarding US intelligence controlling a large number of exit nodes and/or currently have the capability to de-anonymization Tor users
- Hard to get people to switch browsers
- Very hard to get people to switch to a slower browser
- Will take a while
