What would be the bare minimum one would have to do to have at least some degree of privacy while browsing the Internet?
What would be common mistakes that compromise one's privacy?
As an example, I know that getting a VPN will serve a little purpose if no countermeasures against browser fingerprinting were taken.
What else should I know, user?
I'm not thinking about going fully autistic with privacy but I want the little effort I'm planning to do matter.
What browser should I use? I thought Firefox was a good idea for privacy but they had their questionable moments (like integrating literal adware and trying to be steaky about it)despite being open-source. I was recommended Iridium - is it good?
What VPN can be trusted? I'm leaning towards Mullvad atm, they do make a good impression.
Is Privacy Badger enough to avoid fingerprinting?
Do I need to set up uBlock Origin any further than just installing it as an extension?
