Unfortunately, the tracking industry is pushing back – and so far, they’ve been successful. We need YOUR help to #KillTheCookieBanner!

    The alternative is exposing yourself to your isp. So it depends which one you trust more.

    Either way with https and dns over https browser traffic and dns requests should be well hidden from the isp or vpn provider.

      you are right. though as i said, what matter most is that the https site on the other end is 9/10 compromised by facebook, google or twitter scripts plus a slew of other ad companies. they are the ones tracking you everywhere.

        This is the main concern. Which is why using ublock with the right filters is so important as well. Although it still doesn’t protect from fingerprinting.
