Internet Privacy

If you are concerned about your online privacy, Here are a couple of  suggestions:

Use the Brave Browser or use Mozilla Firefox. While Chrome is more popular, both of these browser leak less personal information and have made privacy part of their mission. Additionally, both are actually really nice browsers. Brave is based on the same open-source core that Chrome is, so it feels and works just like Chrome. Firefox has improved a great deal over the past few years, and even use it on my Android tablet and phone instead of Chrome.  

Most tools that are trying to identify you are doing so to target ads. There are some great tools for seeing who is tracking you on each site you visit. I use the EFF’s Privacy Badger and Ghostery.
