Came across this article and it got me thinking, are there any simple ways to defeat advanced tracking methods (fingerprinting, tracking pixels, etc.)?

Obviously you could go the Tor on a virtual machine route, or a non persistent set up like TAILS, but what about a browser that’s able to give say, a 80% solution?

I work in the security industry and am always looking for the solution that is simple enough that its palatable to a client (not asking to change your whole lifestyle, just push this button) but also relatively effective.

    I got so paranoid about librewolfs unique fingerprint that I threw it away and started using mullvad browser 😅 I use the one you can manually download from mullvad website, as mint doesn’t support mullvad repository. I just now tried the flatpak one and it was showing 600+ visits…but it’s unverified, so idk if that’s something to worry about?

    I use basic firefox for stuff where I need to log in as me. probably won’t prevent some goddamn AI from spying on me but at least I feel one bit safer 🤡
