Here is a hint

As an engineer, I'm amazed. As a person who doesn't want the person on the other end of every website I visit to know who exactly I am, I feel violated. At this point though, all I feel I can do as a hapless consumer is to desensitize myself to said violation.

I use a VPN, Pi-Hole, Ghostery and Firefox. All of these a relatively recent additions though, so if a website can get my email and that links to an already existing database of all my collected data up to that point, I'm buggered anyway.

Just making sure you're aware of the discussion around Ghostery that's happened here on HackerNews, so you can make an informed decision:

F-ing wonderful. Almost reaffirming the inevitability of it all really. Back to uBlock it is. Thanks for the heads up.

Not ublock, you need to use ublock origin.

How about AdNausium for the extra middle finger.

From this reprehensible API, "enriching" a simple candidate key (e.g. email addr) (slightly edited for brevity):
