    I use NextDNS. It seems complicated at first, but when you get used to it and the pattern of your settings has been obtained and determined, it becomes easy. It's like giving back your rights as network manager to your own device. Even using the free mode is enough for 1-3 devices with internet usage that isn't too heavy, per month (in this case it becomes free forever). Heavy network users with quite a lot of devices or small to big enough companies are certainly not enough, but the cost is also reasonable and incalculably expensive. You can even combine it with other security and privacy settings to thicken it according to your needs, from partial to total blocks.

      @Scranny I use the wrt3200acm from Linksys, but I would NOT recommend it. It's older and some of the functions don't properly work with open source firmware. Instead, I suggest you pick a firmware, then see what the top compatibility options are for that firmware.

      @@Scranny I already have disabled it. Best alternative I found to Gboard was Floris board (closest to Gboard feature wise). But the reason to stick to GBoard is use of combination of language, For example. If I want to type in Hindi or Marathi, I can type words pronunciation in English and it will automatically convert the word to native language. I'll happily switch to florid board if they include the work suggestion feature because Floris board has some features that even Gboard doesn't have. But word suggestion is something very crucial without which I cannot switch to florid board.

    I'm considering PWAs but I want to hide apps that have some personal/financial data in them. So for example a PWA for online shopping can't be installed and hidden at the same time. If I hide the browser, the 'installed' app (PWA) is lost. So I'm thinking of just doing regular browsing for all products/services apps that I don't want to have native apps. BUT I'm not comfortable with cross-site data sharing and whatnot. Any thoughts?

    I believe before we learn anything about privacy tools all the personal information has already been collected.
    Unless you're doing smth very secret or serious I don't see any reason for protecting your personal data.
    No worries, they already know everything about you! So what's the point?

      I don't really have any insider information on what happened to them, sucky situation though. Fortunately they're offering free Windscribe accounts if you're looking to transition to something else: wevpn.com/

    I must be fairly clean by default. Since I don't use a mobile and rely solely on my laptop I have a hardened Firefox and TOR for emergencies and the only APPS on my machine, at least that I use, are Teamviewer and Steam. I might decide to stop using Teamviewer because they recently changed so that they'll only let you use the account on a specific machine and I'm morally opposed to fingerprint "security". IMO you should be responsible for your own security and the service provider should pound sand.
