i tried tails but google still tracks me and its not for me since the police arent coming after me and the amensia and only being on usb is a bit annoying. i just thought there would be a lot more privacy

i tried qubes with whonix because it seemed interesting but still no privacy even on safest settings in tor (google still knows its me)

    Privacy is me knowing you are in the bathroom, but not knowing what you are doing. (For example, I know you are using Linux, but I don’t know what you are doing on it)

    Anonymity is like wearing a mask. I know you are robbing a store, but I don’t know who you are (Tor works like this)

      As someone with adtech engineering experience, oh we know what you are doing in there! We aren’t looking at you, but we know! lol

        Then what you can do right now is simply change your search engine to DuckDuckGo and use any Linux distro of your liking

        ​Privacy concerns stem from knowing where your data is going and distrusting the receiver. Do not push yourself too hard. It is a long road ahead to fully understand how data and people work
