    Using Mullvad Browser + Mullvad VPN could mitigate this a little bit. Because if you use it as intended (don’t modify Mullvad browser after installation) , all Mullvad users would have the same browser fingerprint and IPs from the same pool.

        Mullvad, (the vpn, I have not tried the browser) uses a single account number as both name and password, no emails. It allows for multiple anonymous payment methods and it's open source.

        Sliiiiightly more trustworthy than Google imo.

          If you don't trust anyone the internet (or any net you don't fully control yourself) is not something you will use.

          Practical security is a matter of threat-modeling and calculated risks.

          Mullvad has a good track record, but if you know of better alternatives that don't require building it yourself, please share!

            The problem is it's all or nothing. You must foil IP address, fingerprint, and cookies - all three at once.

            Mullvad browser might make your fingerprint look similar to other users, but it's not common is the problem. Test it with the EFF Cover your tracks site.

              And Mullvad is not in business if selling user profiles to advertisers, at least as far as we know

                The random dude on the corner is more trustworthy than Google, it's not that hard to be sadly.

                    Tor browser. It's probably more popular, and they lead the charge in standardizing everything so you know it'll be top tier.
