It can mask your ip from other sites, some have adblocking on them too.

I personally use PiVPN which gives me access to PiHole so I have adblocking on the go.

So like Google still gets stuff, but I figure in trying to get privacy, every little helps.

    I dont know much about parts 1 and 2 so cant comment..

    But part 3 doesnt seem to take climate debt (fines and such) into account (https://www.irishtimes.com/business/2025/03/04/ireland-faces-eu-bill-of-up-to-26bn-if-it-misses-climate-targets/), nor the global impact of fossil fuels and the ethical implications of the suggested actions.

    It also seems to ignore electrification of industrial practices, vehicles, etc.

    And while wind is definitely the most likely to provide for the total needed power, not including solar which is cheap and manufacturing is getting easier, with increasing efficiency, seems to be an oversight. (https://ember-energy.org/) Solar outout has over doubled since 2021.
