- Don&#x27;t use social media apps or non-essential apps in general. They usually track you much more thoroughly than any website.<p>- Use a privacy-friendly browser without an agenda, e.g. Firefox or Brave.<p>- Use trustworthy extensions to block as many trackers as possible. uBlock origin and Privacy Badger for example. Beware of extensions with commercial entities behind them, like Ghostery or Web of Trust, they actually also collect your data in various ways.

I find temporary containers and sanitized URLs exceptionally good.<p>Zero effort to set up on Firefox, only cause issues in 1&#x2F;10000 websites, and bring in significant privacy and security benefits.
