Today I was watching a few YouTube videos about groundwork with horses. First time I did that. Yes, I was logged in.
Later today, I hopped on Amazon to track one of my packages. And in my suggestions, there were horse grooming kits, halters and the like, even though I had never before looked for things like these on there.
My mail addresses are different on the two places, and so are, of course, my passwords. I am on Linux with Firefox, uBlock etc. So this must be an incredible coincidence, a miracle, mind-reading, or maybe witchcraft?
I wonder what I could tweak to make things like this happen less in future. I am thinking of adding a Pi-hole to my router, yet I am no longer so sure, if it would help?
De-google everything. I use a VPN and run LibreWolf with some plugins like uBlock, uMatrix, deArrow and SponsorBlock. Still haven’t gotten around installing Lineage on my phone to get rid of Google there, but at least I run VPN on my phone at all times aswell.
Now since I use LibreWolf it deletes cookies on every shutdown. This is a bit annoying because I have to log back in every time I visit websites. Therefore I run BitWarden and have also allowed some cookies in website settings.
Its not the best privacy solutions but it’s an easy setup for a lot of profit imo.
I’m going through that right now, definetely worth it, but it can be quite a job on some devices, have a spare phone ready when you start :)
Yeah I am thinking about waiting until I get a new one for that specific reason.
Which?
Mullvad VPN :)
