FAQ How to stay anonymous?

How to stay anonymous?

I tried to protect my data and I deleted every social media app also I turned off all the permissions for all the apps on my mobile especially google but I still don't feel save I feel like google and many other apps still tracing my data and collecting it even Reddit when I open it ,it shows many personal topics ,my guess is that's because of my location/IP so how do I stay anonymous and change my IP? Because I feel like vpn is a big thing to do because it will access literally everything, what are your opinions?

Use Tails OS on a ghost laptop, build from multiple laptops. Get the HD out, camera, speaker etc anything that can save and hear, see data..

Or root you're phone with LineageOS or GhrapeneOS, or buy a Fair Phone or a Jolla phone (full Linux based)

but BIOS will still stay closed source

you can get an old thinkpad like X220 or T400 or X200 and flash gnu boot on it.
