That’s a great writing.

All those programs and techniques put together and well explained in plain English. Sometimes I get the impression that some people are still in denial, like those things would not exist.

I would like to read the article, but every 2 seconds a photo of a semi-naked woman is showed to me in the screen and I dont agree with this kind of ads and, therefore, with the website that has revenue with this ads . I rather recommend to read the book by Edward Snowden, Permanent Record, which was at some points difficult to understand to non tech people but very illustrating in general.

For me it is an advertising for a VPN provider, (more linked to the topic) but it’s very intrusive with Firefox/iOS, it want to open the AppleStore to install it right now

Here, soon after the publication of the first post, no ads whatsoever.

Rhoooo :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

using uBlock and Ghostery add-on for Firefox let me read this article with no intromissions at all :wink:

you’re totally right, sorry !

first, on pc/mac/linux… better install Firefox and the uBlock Origin extension (I think it’s a minimum) which you can find here > https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/ublock-origin/

here is a good website link with all the good extensions to add to your firefox/chrome/chromium profile (it’s in French, sorry but Goolag can ironically translate to you in your language) > https://www.malekal.com/quelles-extensions-pour-bloquer-les-traqueurs-sur-firefox-ou-chrome/

On non rooted android tablets/smartphones : you can install some applications like Blokada or AdGuard + Firefox (or Fennec - an open source version of Firefox) with ublock origin addon.

On rooted Android tablets/smartphones : the same + an application named “Adaway”, very useful.

If you prefer Chrome, I used to use an Ungoogled version of Chrome on PC/Linux and android called Ungoogled Chromium > https://github.com/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium
with the chromium webstore addon to add/upgrade original chrome addons on this ungoogled chromium > https://github.com/NeverDecaf/chromium-web-store
Once Ungoogled Chromium installed, install the Ublock Origin addon from Goolag Chrome webstore

Blokada or AdGuard are great, but then I can’t use VPN :frowning:

I’m currently using Adguard with a vpn together : Adguard settings > network > filtering method > local HTTP Proxy | local proxy port 8080 | local proxy auto mode ticked

it’s working now on my /e/ Xiaomi note 5 pro

Thanks! Will check them out

Blokada is high battery drain. I have a Xiaomi Mi9T and tracking on xiaomi device is really high ! At home I use PiHole but outside it’s a real problem
