I have reduced my digital advertising exposure to a minimum - very liberating 🤓:
- no more linear TV and no more commercials for years
- switched from Google Android to GrapheneOS (npub1235…0ht5) - no more mobile operating system tracking, no more Google data mining for ads in God mode
- switched from Google Chrome to Brave Browser (mobile/PC) / Vanadium => cookie tolerance and tracking in settings reduced as far as possible
- watch YouTube only via Brave Browser => blocks all advertising
- Accounts for all meta products deleted and apps removed (Whatsapp, FB, Insta)
- Checked all Android apps for trackers and permissions on https://exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/
=> deleted many apps & open accounts in browser only, because almost all apps track in order ro sell data to multiple data brokers
- switched to privacy email services Tuta (npub1s0l…33wr)
and Proton Mail (npub1mea…qane) to avoid email tracking
- use hide-my-email aliases from Proton Mail (npub1mea…qane) for commercial burner log-ins
- Social media 90% Nostr / 10% X (twitter only in browser)
- only in-podcast and in-video advertising from content creators remain. Understand that they do it for monetization, but I always fast forward. Sorry, not sorry.
- I send V4V for pods that are V4V only
Our podcast Nodesignal Podcast (npub1n0d…02cy) is Value 4 Value only. It works without advertising.
Be the change you want to see!
