Why Do-Not-Track browser settings are useless and what to do about it

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Ghostery’s parent company Evidon sells your data.

There’s no way to use the modern web without being tracked. Addons make your browser more unique, making it easier to “fingerprint” you. It’s a catch 22. I’ve opted to go full wingnut with ad-blocker, canvas blocker, VPN, pi-hole, ad-blocker-blocker-blocker, etc., but it doesn’t really matter. It can’t be fixed by an end user.
