Increase your anonymity for free
Ghostery is a completely free plugin for Windows 7-10 operating system. For each of the supported browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Edge, Safari, Cliqz) a different plugin is installed.
The main purpose of the plugin is not to protect against viruses, but to increase privacy of the Internet. It recognizes and blocks various code (bugs), which monitors user actions and collects information about him.
Despite this, this plugin will be useful for those who are worried about their anonymity and do not want to share their data with third parties, which in particular improves security. It is better to use this plugin in addition to those that protect the user from other threats.

How to Copy More Than One Thing to Your Clipboard at a Time
If you ever need to copy multiple things from one place to another or have a habit of misplacing the link you copied but forgot to paste, you need a clipboard manager.
Windows 10 and 11 come with their own basic clipboard history too. Enable the feature from Settings > System > Clipboard > Clipboard History. Then, use the Windows + V keyboard shortcut to bring up a floating panel where you’ll see a list of text that you have recently copied to the clipboard. You can click on an entry to paste it into the text, and the Pin button to pin that entry to the top.
The Windows clipboard history tool is nice to have. But it’s no clipboard manager 👇.
Ditto is a lightweight, free, and open-source clipboard manager.
1Clipboard is another great option for a free, universal app built on open source tech. It works on both Windows and Mac.

How to remove watermarks from an image
We all love to share pictures from the Internet, especially if we find something we've been looking for a long time. But unfortunately, many of them are drowned in annoying watermarks, spoiling the whole atmosphere, and sometimes overlapping half of the image.
To avoid wasting time looking for a replacement or working in a photo editor, you can ask for help from Watermark Remover, whose artificial intelligence will get rid of unnecessary elements of any image in a matter of seconds.
It will cope not only with semi-transparent watermarks, but also with invisible marks which only special software can spot.

How to Beat Social Media Algorithms
Social media platforms charge you nothing to use them, except info about you. Their algorithms decide what content to show you.❗️Don’t make their data harvesting easier —skirt the algorithms whenever you can.
✅ Don’t confirm the algorithm’s assumptions. Avoid interacting with suggested content if possible. If you find something interesting in suggestions, search for it manually and watch it from there.
✅ Eliminate suggested feeds when possible. Change your feeds to sort chronologically ➡️ don’t train the platform’s algorithm. Not for all social medias! Facebook and Twitter let you sort by recent posts. Instagram might not have a chronological feed at the moment, but it’s coming. TikTok - watch content from the “Following” (would show you videos only from accounts you follow).
✅ Use platforms without your account when possible (YouTube, Reddit).
✅ Use a burner account, with none of your real info.

Send Messages, Not Metadata
Your correspondence can be read in almost all messengers. The exception is Telegram, but it is not completely anonymous - it requires you to enter your phone number to register. If it comes up, you will be easily identified.
Session is an end-to-end encrypted messenger that minimises sensitive metadata, designed and built for people who want absolute privacy and freedom from any form of surveillance. It does not ask for an email or 📱 number when you register, but assigns you an ID - a set of hundreds of characters. It looks like a long nickname that you can share with your interlocutor to start a chat.
The app looks like a normal messenger - you can send documents, voice messages, there are groups, but it's completely anonymous. The company has no servers, the routing goes through users - it means that leaks of personal data are simply impossible.
Available on iPhone, Android and PC.
Use it!

✅ Random posts from your profile.

Encrypt your data
You need to securely protect your data. One of the best tools for it is VeraCrypt. It's simple, easy to install, you just have to come up with a strong password and not store it digitally.
My laptop hard drive has been encrypted for years: I enter a password every time that can neither be recovered nor reset.
VeraCrypt is used by hackers, investigators, journalists and anyone else who deals with important data. So far, not a single intelligence agency in the world has managed to decipher VeraCrypt algorithms.
