Well, imagine trying to keep every damn geek at the NSA and all their gizmos from watching you in real time on the net, and see what you think. I don't trust a damn thing...

Anything that use the term SMART, replace it with the term SPY.
This goes for everything from Smart Phones to Smart meters.

Search engines that are recommended, but not necessarily private are:
1. Duck duck go
2. Katherine Albrecht's search engine IF she still recommends it. I haven't talked to her for years, but I think she mentions it in this seminar.
She did her masters and doctoral thesis on privacy issues and started an organization called CASPIAN.
Look her up and you can get lots of answers from her materials. Privacy is multi-tiered.
Keep in mind that she was teaching this at major seminars around the country around 20 years ago.
What she shares has come to pass except for the timing of the "Certification"Mark as bill gates calls it.

Mike, a VPN is an encrypted tunnel across the Internet from your computer to the VPN server. Your Internet Service Provider and other snoopers in your area would be unable to see your traffic. The Opera browser has a built-in VPN if you're interested in looking at it. It's also one of the fastest browsers available and has a built-in ad blocker as well.

A good start is not having a Gmail account and using Google for searches. I use DuckDuckGo on my iPhone and Macbook. Pretty much any really good anti virus package(not really needed anyway with Windows 10) will have a VPN.

LOL, I just reread my post three times for very obvious misspellings.

Get recruited to be a agent for the federal government and you will be trained for things like this.

If you are actually serious.....

Library, and use a browser with "incognito" capabilities, like Chrome.

Spray paint surveillance camera lenses on the way in, wipe them off on the way out, to be polite.

While a VPN may help keep identity thieves from getting your information or whatever, I'd be about willing to bet that a VPN offers no resistance for the us Government.

Don't Libraries log who uses their computers and when, or can anyone walk right up and start surfing?
