- In order to be pseudo-anonymous on the Internet, we have to make sure that we are aware that we are being tracked. There are 10 important identifiers that we will work on to prevent someone from recognizing us as we surf the interwebs. If we hide or obscure these identifiers, we become invisible.

Yep, It's massive -- more than most of us can conceive of. Most people, including myself, have just surrendered to it all. But one day, I will just change home address, chuck old phone, and go live in the forest with a box of cash.
I'm going for boxes of seeds. A couple boxes of gold & rolls of copper too. A cashless society is something the powers that be are pushing for. I don't see enough people valuing, or even being aware of, the freedom cash allows for. Sad.
Better make it a selfsufficient offgrid living IN a country where that is still allowed
Great stuff thanks Rob.
Rob, you're awesome!! A great Patriot you are!!👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😉
Good job Rob.
Use mail, wear gloves, use sponge to seal envelope & stamp to avoid DNA transfer. Make letter on self destruct paper within 3 minutes. Use one time pads for encryption. Of course everybody does this.
Awesome information.
You are appreciated, Rob!

There is no such thing as total privacy. If you were born at a hospital, have attended school, had a job, filed taxes, had a doctors appointment, obtained a driver’s license, own a credit card, or hundreds of other considerations, your information is not really private.
there is always space for more privacy, and it can be less
imaging a world in which some strange people watch where you put your fingerprint. They immediately look at it, add it to a database or check if you are already there. You are not informed how this information is used.
In real world this happens only when some kind of crime is commited.
In web world such fingerprint collection is a never ending process. Since this is considered like a kind of a new normality, you might want to ware gloves. Just to keep your privacy
Yes, a lot of that information has been around for a long time, but now it is all networked and accessible to anybody globally. Before the internet, that really wasn't the case.
That's not the point, Derrick....
Supplemental suggestion: If practicing separation to keep things like google, etc, confined to just one browser, be aware of clicking video links in emails, twitter, etc, that will take you to youtube on the browser you are trying to keep free of google. Always copy a link and paste it into a browser reserved for this purpose or else the wrong browser might be opened.
True, I always have my browser set to erase everything when it closes and I use Brave and Firefox as my browsers. Any methods to keep yourself hidden when you go on the internet is a plus. TAILS is a great alternative OS too
Having crome app gives everything away unless you have virtual system and good firewall, etc.
A firewall or virtualisation does not stop Chrome apps finding out who you are.
Hi Rob, in which video your telling also about the home video doorbells?
Thanks
Many of the websites I use regularly, including financial ones, and also many websites I come across during general browsing, just don't work with VPNs. So it's really not a viable option.
I don't have a problem with that. You just establish a pattern and choose a location near you. Doing unusual patterns flag you. The purpose of a VPN is misdirect the IP address not appear like a criminal. I also stick to the same VPN server most of the time so the pattern is clear. Very minimal issues using this method.
What Rob brax is saying is true. I use a VPN 24/7 on all my devices. Browser Isolate and have dedicated browsers for Banking on your Android and Desktops. Login and then have the website remember your username. Keep the VPN location the closest city to you. Credit Unions don't care as much as big banks.
I have had issues with Fidelity but I believe, without telling me, they whitelisted my account for VPNs. I had my account suspended twice and I complained enough to the point where I don't get suspended anymore. I told them I use VPNs for work.
I've been wondering if VPN softwares/platforms can snif through your data traffic for valuable info if they want?
YES I wan't to be a ghost!!! Please help us!
I tried to download your program on Google play but it said my phone was not compatible because it was too new it's 4 years old am I being played
Hi Rob, If I ran a nefarious three letter agency, I might scan the cell networks for phones lacking tracking identifiers, then correlate with surveillance cameras or simply stop and identify the person with the de-Googled phone. What are the odds of something like this happening. ???
A Three Letter Agency would need to subpoena such information from a mobile phone provider and it would probably have to be obtained on an individual basis through a court of law as part of a criminal investigation, they would not be given access to "the names and phone numbers of all people with de-Googled phones", for example.
That is a completely different to the privacy scenario where your phone "naturally" leaks your personal data to be "snapped up" by the likes of Google, Apple and Faecesbook.
You can't just stop and identify anyone you want. 4th ammendment.
@adrianalexandrov7730
that depends on who the law enforcement thinks you are, how well you know the law and are able to present your knowledge & where you are.

no real way to go online being private, darpa has created most devices.
Buy a dedicated device without a camera or microphone to prevent surreptitious voice and face ID. Never use your name, or any personally identifiable information on it. Never login to any personal accounts. They may know everything about the use of that machine, but they won't have a name to tie it to.*
* Unless you do something to get the attention of a TLA, then they will use proximity tracking and data correlation to get you. Maybe only use it while wearing a facemask in public, after walking from an area without cameras. And hide all five traits that can be used to identify a person, like gait.

Tell us how Windows 11 is linked to the CPU ID
Because buying a PC with Windows on it is you paying good money to have Microsoft "lease" the PC back to you under their control, and your monthly cost for that lease is your personal data. Do you not understand the simple concept that once you put Windows 10 or 11 on your PC, nothing on it is hidden from Microsoft any more?

Hi, braxme,
Did you find the 4G phone, for me?
❤ Not sure if you're able to help. I just woke up to a weird alarm that sounded like when you get an Amber alert. But there's nothing on my phone. I'm pretty sure my phone has been updated or installed with APK files and API files as well. It looks like I'm just wondering. What's the best file manager to use to possibly get rid of this without rooting my phone
Please do a video on two factor identification when cellular network is down like ATT is right now.
Why do you believe you only need to run 2FA on certain kinds of networks, presumably (public) wifi? Why would you not just run it everywhere?
I reloaded a new windows install on a desktop after messing with different versions of linux…. Windows didnt even ask for a purchase key. It RECOGNIZED MY COMPUTER based on my motherboard S/N….. that was actually kind of scary
why mess with linux, why not to use it?
Yes, it's because the Windows registration code is built into the PC's BIOS. Some PC manufacturers have been doing it as far back as Windows 8 in order to catch the people stupid enough to run Windows.
@@user-od4gs3iu4t its my gaming PC… i don’t care what anyone says. Linux is still not viable for top end games.
I still run linux on my daily machine
@@terrydaktyllus1320 Incorrect. I can assure you it wasn’t in the bios. It recognizes the serial numbers of all your hardware and records them. I even changed a couple things and it still recognized enough of them.
@3M3 No, correct. It was in the BIOS. I first came across it on a Lenovo Y500 Ideapad that I purchased new some time around 2015. It came pre-installed with Windows 8 that I refused to use and installed Windows 7 on it. When I reinstalled Windows 8 on it a few years later to re-sell the laptop, no registration code was needed because it was clearly visible in the BIOS.
Become better informed and don't make yourself look like an idiot.
Last time I tried a VPN, all my services were telling me they detect a VPN so they wouldnt work, that was a couple years ago they have been be even more on it now
mine does too but the ip address they show isnt mine
Vpn always slows my connection on iphone so i dont use it...vpn on laptop or ipad doesnt slow connection
Just going to say using a vpn is not a way to make your ip adddress invisible. Id recommend using a unix shell and create a custom proxy chain.
The problem is that few of us started out clean. It's nearly impossible to become a ghost once you've been visible. You can change your phone numbers and emails with various sites but they may retain the previous data in archives and thus be able to link your old numbers and emails to your new numbers and emails. I think the most effective solution is to create all new accounts and quit using the old accounts. The old data will still be there with the old accounts but after awhile it will become stale. You might need new friends too, lol. Algorithms might be able to link your old and new numbers by the changes in their uploaded contacts lists.
Now I am becoming even more paranoid.
Thanks, I will follow your tips after buying a new laptop and mobile phone 😂
How about firefox containers? Or use differnt users in Brave, Vivaldi, Chorme? One user for Google, one for FB, one for news and so on.
it looks to me just like a half of a way. You need anyway to check if you are trackable (and how efficiently) by using something like browserleaks
And let me guess that regardless of how many vivaldies or braves you use it's just simply not enough.
If for any reason you need an ultimate privacy, you should rather use tor or mullvad
it will probably be inconvenient and might even be unusable for many websites, but it's like it is
QUESTION: If I share internet from my own cellphone and someone login in Google from his cellphone, Wich IP Adresse will be tracked, mine or his or both? Good channel Thank you so much!
same IP address but cell data is fine.
would using Linux be a better option or is that compromised too
yes, Linux is a better option, Windows is sending a lot of background data AFAIK mostly for advertising purpose.
linux is certainly better, but you can just block in windows everything that you find unnecessary with a help from 3rd party utilities liker portmaster
@@user-od4gs3iu4t ...until Microsoft installs a Windows update that turns all of your settings off again. You should not use an OS that you cannot trust and have to constantly fight against.

But the main threat is Intel ME

I know you can use a pi as a VPN, but can it replace your IMEI
with a random or non-real one?
IMEI and VPN are entirely unrelated. IMEI is accessed and visible because of Google/Apple apps running on the phone, irrespective of whether or not you use a VPN.
@@terrydaktyllus1320 I use my desktop for 99% of my internet.
Currently I use a pi as a wireless router to get wifi from my tablet's hotspot.. and then connect the pi to the desktop over Ethernet.
Since my desktop is 3 levels away from a direct connection to the internet, can they still get my IMEI?
Can they get my tablet's IMEI, when I am surfing the web from my desktop?
Would putting a VPN on the pi be useless, since my tablet is the first link to the internet?
Can a VPN block IMEI requests?
Can I make a software equivalent to uBlocks that will block or substitute IMEI requests and send the substitute?
@@WagonLoadsasking such questions means that you mix physical, infrastructure and software layers of communications. Simply saying, using VPN protects you from easy fingerprinting based on your IP. However there are many more ))
if you want to move from just discussing to practical means, you should rather go to browserleaks or similar sites and check how effectively you can be tracked.
You might be surprised how many fingerprints you make simply by clicking a website.
If for any reason you need a good privacy, you indeed should use a worth-of-trust VPN, as well as tor or mullvad browser.
IMEI as well as your real IP might be anyway available to big tech and three letter agencies, cause they have access literally to anything. Legally or not. Just ask Assange or Snowden
@@WagonLoads and if you are not that interested in digging that ground, a bunch of simple advices:
1. VPN I consider firstly as a security feature, not privacy. And you need it when you travel a lot and need to connect to internet using available free wifi and similar. Then it is a must. You need VPN if you need really a higher privacy/security, because you are an activist, politician, pop star, or just a target for some (cyber)criminals.
2. If you have iphone/android phone, then google/apple may have all information about you. You don't want it - don't use any of them )
3. There is always a tradeoff between privacy and convenience. It's you and only you who knows what you need. People may give you advices, but all is up to you

MAY I CORRECT YOU SIR!!!
Unless You Are a "Website" You Are Not Given A Static IP Address.
As An Ordinery User Without a Dedicated Website , If I Switch My Modem Off/On or Restart It, I am Allocated a New IP Address. Most of Ordinary Internet Users Are On Dynamic IP Addresses.
Eg. Your Phone Uses Dynamic IP, Its Identifier is Your Phone Number.
Only If You Wish To Access Your Home Computer Across The Internet, Do You Need A Static IP Address. The Server Knows Where To Direct Your Connection.
Most Internet Connections, Perhaps About 90% of Traffic, Is On Dynamic IP Addresses.
If you are on DSL that is not correct. I am not on static. But they are too lazy to change the IP Address and I am on Spectrum
The IP address that your ISP gives you as part of DHCP is in a specific range of addresses allocated to that ISP - that will give any external viewer knowledge of what ISP you are using and probably a good idea as to what part of the world you're living in.
Also a reverse DNS look up of the IP address will give them the name of your specific router on your ISP even if the router name is not tied specifically to your identity.

How can you be invisible on the internet? Answer: Don't be on the internet. The point is that it's impossible. Any smart person already knows this. Even with a good VPN, you can never truly be invisible. You pay for an internet service provider, and every click, search, upload, and download goes through the internet and servers. Moving on.
Speak for yourself. You don't understand the danger in that type of thinking. The powers at be want us to think like that. My first disagreement with your statement is that you don't need to pay a service provider to have Internet. And even if you do there are ways to conceal your identity
@@rmh5102 - nothing is free, and nothing commercially valuable is free. You have to pay for internet, like most anything else, or you are nothing but a thief. The "powers that be" are above your mindset and pay grade. No matter what you do or what you perceive, there is NEVER total anonymity and invisibility. Period. It's impossible
VPN'S are not PRIVATE
False. Even if you are off the internet, at least some of your info is online.
@@spartanchuckles8743 -not false in how I was saying it. That was my point. You would have never even been onto the internet to begin with.

Higher anonymity needs a minimum of pentium 3 and an old CRT monitor. And the government readily tracks any/all connections, including to vpns, and will easily Middle Man Attack your connection to snoop on you, so if you want anonymity, internet isn't a great place to start.

To do this
Bluetooth MAC address can rat you out - your friends' phones will report at which geolocation they've seen it - from there, Big Tech will figure what street address that is.
And how does Big Tech then work out who that Bluetooth address belongs to if the device is de-Googled and not reporting that address to Google? Especially when Bluetooth is turned off most of the time because I only by phones with headphone jacks and use wired headphones, earphones or speakers?

It would be cool if you did a video on what Nathan Wade and Fani Willis to not be tracked by CellHawk. Nate The Lawyer has a decent video that runs down the evidence. Its a political hot button story but seems right up your alley and you could do it in a very neutral way.

The best way is to throw your cell phone and any electronic device into the river or water and go to the primitive forest, otherwise, they know you. lol ^_^🤣🤣🤣Unfortunately, this is the fact.
A VPN is still liable under the law to divulge all of your transmitted and received data to the government.
you can simply randomize mac address. A standard security/privacy feature nowadays in many gadgets
Not going to work. Bluetooth is not randomized. Wifi is randomized on LOGIN. Not on broadcast.
@@robbraxmantech partitioning is the way to go.
The MAC address is really only used on your local network, your router does not pass it on anywhere else - the only exception is when you use IPv6 end-to-end on a connection because the part of the IPv6 address is the MAC address. However, IPv6 is only really used across the Internet backbone and security best practice specifications currently suggest turning IPv6 off in local networks.
best way is not use it
Make it easy, dump the devices and head for the country.
yeah windows is getting very anoying to use not logged in cant even get files off a phone on my systems anymore lol(cause they arent logged in)
i use someone elses IP :P someone elses phone for 2FA & my email is 20+ yrs old im sure they think im someone but its not me
It doesn't matter if your phone is logged in or not - I assume you mean a Google Android phone.
The phone is being tracked through the wifi interface on your phone broadcasting in promiscuous mode, logging the access points that it detects and then sending that data to Google for them to process - that means the location of your phone is tracked to an accuracy of 2 meters using wifi triangulation. Where you spend your night time period most often (i.e. the place where you go to sleep) gives them your home address to add to your phone number and IMEI number.
Any one of your contacts who has your phone number and address in their online contacts against your name gives them your identity anyway, plus with your home address they can work out who you are from voter registration databases or elsewhere on the Internet.
Do you SERIOUSLY believe that you can bypass their tracking capabilities that they spend millions on each year to research by simply "not logging into the phone"???
The only way to stop Google tracking you is not have their software on your phone in the first place.

Do lots of research of how to root your phone. That will allow you to remove any unwanted apps and tracking capabilities and much such more. It's also possible to brick your phone which would make it useless, but with proper research and knowledge, that is limited. You will need to borrow a computer, however.

I can't see spending all my waking hours worrying about my internet privacy. There's honestly more important things to worry about.
I don't spend my making hours worry about Internet privacy either - because I've learned how to implement the techniques of privacy and trained myself into good privacy habits on the Internet going forward. Now I don't think about it very much at all, it's second nature, and I bet I am a lot more private than you are, by simply giving up before you even start.

💥💥💥 YOU KEEP MENTIONING THAT VPN'S HELP WITH ANONYMITY BUT WITH AS MANY GOVERNMENT FRONT COMPANIES THESE DAYS, WHAT DO YOU THINK THE CHANCES ARE THAT TJE GOVERNMENT ACTUALLY OWN/ CONTROLS SOME IF MOT ALL VPN COMPANIES?? ALL THE STATE HAS TO DO IS SEND A SUBPOENA TO SAID VPN COMPANY AND MOST WILL JUST HAND OVER ANY INFORMATION THEY HAVE. NOW WHAT??
ProtonVPN is based in Switzerland and, if I recall correctly, isn't a part of the trifecta of countries that pass around subpoenas like candy.
Regardless, if the VPN doesn't track you (from a technology standpoint), there is NOTHING to subpoena.
The best companies don't keep records and the O.S. is stored/ran on temporary ram.
They'll get what they want and however they choose. I believe they can get through anything and do anything too
I suspect they might be behind crypto currency also.
I am using a self-host vpn, is this good?
Yes🤣😂AI..IA
I want you to know who I am. That way you know to leave me alone
Why would they leave you alone if access to your data is worth money to them? Especially if they do know exactly who you are?
You're just making an excuse for not doing anything about protecting your privacy.
It's all a bunch of whoey. It's ridiculous.
WHY do you NEVER get to the point?
Probably because you lack self control and patience to fully absorb the points that he is making. That's your issue to resolve.
@@terrydaktyllus1320because you are guessing and you blindly make comments that you havnt thought through ....but thats ok. we cant all be smart can we?
@@jimw7916 No, Jim. This is a discussion about computers and learning how to use them to maintain your privacy, not a discussion about me (a topic you know nothing about anyway).
Therefore do try to keep up and stay on topic, there's a good chap.
@@terrydaktyllus1320oh I KNOW your type the moment you speak a few words. You are empty of knowledge and empty of intelligence.Please dont waste my time or other peoples time with that nonsense.
