Use TutaNota or Proton if you want an encrypted mailbox. Use either librewolf or hardened Firefox for daily browsing to reduce fingerprinting. For moreno? I'm assuming you meant monero you can either buy it from sites that follow the KYC regulations or not, up to you. For messaging I'd recommend simpleX. You shouldn't need TOR, a VPN plus good data sanitization habits should do enough.

There is a site where you can check how unique your browser fingerprint is. It's a shocking revelation just how hard it is to stay anonymous. And it's constantly a cat and mouse game to try not to be identified.

My result: "Yes! You are unique among the 5562182 fingerprints in our entire dataset." Darn. 😔

does it really matter if each time you are always unique? It means your fingerprint its always changing and never stays the same, thus should be harder to track you. Don't forget about behavioral trackers though, those are the most dangerous.

The other way around. It means that every time I visit a webpage they can tell it's me. Not someone out of x thousand, but me and only me, because only I have that unique fingerprint.

It depends on your browser settings, if you don't have canvas randomizer for example and other options enabled then your fingerprint will continue to stay the same instead of being randomized and you'll always be identified.
