So as the title mentions, I’m wondering how much is too much?

I am currently using Brave with the setting to:

  • Aggressively block trackers & ads
  • Only connect with HTTPS
  • Block fingerprinting
  • Block cross-site cookies

In addition to that, I have installed the following extensions:

  • uBlock Origin
  • Ghostery
  • Decentraleyes
  • DuckDuckGo Privacy Essentials

So my question is: Is this overkill? If so, what should/could be removed that may be redundant? I want as much coverage as possible, but not have things bloated.

    Look, if that’s how you define a boycott, then be my guest I guess. A bit off the mark but I guess I’m clearly lacking the ability to get it across to you. No fuzzy feeling, maybe avoiding a vague shitty feeling I’d have for using it.

    Donations require users, if all the users boycott then they get no donations.

    Or maybe look at the inverse, the company is losing out on potential donations by users boycotting, whether significant or not. Same goes for ad impressions, etc

      Donations require ONE user (with a big donation).

      You are doing this just to feel a bit better. But it won’t change brave marketshare in the slightest.
