Hello ToS;DR, I love your concept. I am located in California, USA and am an Internet privacy enthusiast and recent drop-out of a continuing education Cyber Security program after receiving a Bachelors degree in an unrelated field two years ago. Realizing the “Wild Wild West” is really the truth on the Internet, I have since deactivated many accounts (Google, Amazon, Facebook), albeit hard for the aforementioned in many ways, use an obfuscated VPN out of Sweden as much as possible and browse privately with as much tracking protection as possible. Once I realized Google started tracking me after a recent sign-in to retrieve a document after about a year of not using ANY Google products including searches, I looked at my “Takeout” file and found they started to follow ALL of my devices I had ever used to access their services in the past. How I knew? They thought my phone was in Sweden as I keep all location services off (Apple iPhone) and my other devices were in places I do not reside as I keep my location services off at all times. I don’t use Microsoft except behind my VPN on a Merlin router and constantly think about privacy. DuckDuckGo has been a great help in this process. I feel as if I am mostly private (95% sure?) but still wonder if I need to take any further steps. I would love to help in any way and like to code but am very new with Debian/Linux and have many hours of hardware and software research in computer systems including a stable Hackintosh build with 6th generation Intel components. I am also a fan of Tails OS. My work as a teacher (not much money) allows me extra time to help inform others about privacy on the web and would love to be part of your project. If you have ideas and would like to speak with me further, I have an encrypted email through ProtonMail. Please let me know if you would like help on your project as I would be willing to put in time to further your FANTASTIC work. Thanks for everything you have done so far including your browser add-on.
