I think there are some steps which can be taken to help mitigate this: - use a VPN to obscure rough IP based location lookups and if the VPN has shared traffic it also make tracking more difficult - limit apps which are useful with geolocation to use rough geolocation - If on ios, opting out of app tracking will at least disable Apple’s advertising ID. - Be mindful of granting bluetooth and network access. For apps which require precise geolocation this becomes a problem (ex: google maps for navigation). If you can, find an alternative with better privacy incentives (ex: apple maps). For the stronger privacy willed when signing up for a service think about what information is identifying and whether or not it is worth withholding: - use unique email addresses (ideally with a unique domain or a shared domain; ex: simplelogin) - use a credit card with a unique number which can make payments under a unique name (ex: privacy.com) - use a unique name - phone numbers are a bit more tricky (ex: talkatone) None of these things are perfect, introduce their own risks, and may trigger fraud alerts but I think they help in some of the situations listed above. I admit this certainly isn’t realistic to expect of most people. If you or anyone else have thoughts on this or know of other services, I’m all ears.
