I turn my Bluetooth, NFC and Wi-Fi on when i need to use them, otherwise they're off.

Partly for privacy but also for battery life.

Do most people leave those on all the time?

Is Librewolf any different than Firefox with good privacy extensions?

I just immediately block people who use terms like bidey-bro.

Life it too short and my feed is too long.

Exactly.

But it's very easy and fast to temporarily thaw it when you want to apply for credit.

I've been doing it for years.

I bought a pixel when Google first came out with their cell service. That phone lasted less than a year for no reason I can think of.

I'm also staying with Samsung, though i had a OnePlus that was great until i dropped it into a river

How does Firefox assign a fingerprint? I thought a fingerprint was made of all my add-ons, browser version, OS, screen size, device version, etc?

I use FF on desktop with ublock, fb fence and various settings tweaked.

On mobile I use FF with ublock and the blokada app (which blocks trackers in other apps too).

In that setup I get great privacy results at the eff testing tool. Do you have other tools you like to test with?

Really not sure what to do about the fingerprint, but otherwise feel pretty good.

I think I tried brave at some point and it didn't do as well. DDG browser didn't do as well.

@GregoryTheGreat @BarterClub

I hate video when a written article does the job, SO MUCH.

Like if you're showing me how to fix something in my car fine video. Discussing one web browser versus another? Text all the way.

I'm not going to watch the video in this post for that reason.
