I guess a lot of us do some form of privacy/security theatre. I’m at least doing it quite a lot of it, and it’s difficult to stop thinking of new things that could (but probably never will) go wrong.
So instead of hearing how safe and cool your setup is, I’d like to hear how you simplified things and stopped the (hopefully 🤔) needless overthinking.
On browser extensions, uBlock Origin has come a long way that it basically also does what other privacy extensions provide. Simplifying your content/tracking blockers can actually make your browsing more secure, as well as make your fingerprint less unique. I’m still a bit of a sucker and have Privacy Badger installed, but will probably let go of it as well once I’m comfortable enough. Over the years I’ve had Disconnect, ClearURLs, and Decentraleyes alongside uBO.
Same here. I’ve stripped my browser of most extensions, uBO with a VERY strict Pi-hole subnet router works for me
