    Not sure what you’re asking here. If you’re looking for a starting point for some research, here’s a few things:

    1. Use a browser with an ad blocker
    2. Use a VPN from Proton, Mullvad or Windscribe
    3. Use email aliases
    4. Get as far away from datamining platforms like Google and Meta as you can. Ideally delete them both completely.
    5. Use private and free operating systems like Linux and GrapheneOS.

    That should be enough to get you started.
