@Dislodge3233 also not a fan of how the over engineering article is written. Goes into a lomg diatribe about how your traffic is encrypted with https but fails to highlight the fact that the site you visit is still visible in the request headers and is tied to you ip address. Not to mention anything about DNS requests.
And yes tracking by sites like google and Facebook are a challenge, but thats why using a good adblocker like ublock origin and disabling unnecessary javascript is important
@QuietStorm
If you dont have a vpn you could use tor, but is easily detected by an isp and you must use care not to leak any info via dns
Many vpn providers offer free tiers, id check out #protonvpn or #MullvadVPN.
Sometimes the free tiers can get bogged down with heavy traffic but it’s better than raw dogging the sketchy side of the net
