Going dark: online privacy and anonymity for normal people

TLDR: Use a VPN + Incognito mode + fake email and info

The VPN hides your IP. Incognito mode prevents your cookies from giving away your identity. And the fake info helps with things like sites being hacked and the data being dumped online.

And you really should try to use a reputable VPN, like the one they recommend in the article. Plenty of VPN services are in the business of injecting ads and malware, logging your traffic, stealing passwords and credit card numbers, etc.

Incognito mode is per session, not per tab or window.
