Came across this article and it got me thinking, are there any simple ways to defeat advanced tracking methods (fingerprinting, tracking pixels, etc.)?

Obviously you could go the Tor on a virtual machine route, or a non persistent set up like TAILS, but what about a browser that's able to give say, a 80% solution?

I work in the security industry and am always looking for the solution that is simple enough that its palatable to a client (not asking to change your whole lifestyle, just push this button) but also relatively effective.

I'm the first one in my family to start building any semblance of generational wealth for my kids, you CAN do that by working hard and being smart with your money, you don't have to back stab people to accrue wealth. I'm not planning on being a multimillionaire, and I don't need money to be happy. But you can invest yourself and your earnings in industries that you personally believe in, that also improve your community. I'm very meticulous with who I decide to do business with, I personally despise mega corporations that monopolize markets. All I'm saying is that it is possible to believe in a free market without exploiting your fellow statesmen.
