Is there a similar tool that will “poison” my personal tracked data? Like, I know I’m going to be tracked and have a profile built on me by nearly everywhere online. Is there a tool that I can use to muddy that profile so it doesn’t know if I’m a trans Brazilian pet store owner, a Nigerian bowling alley systems engineer, or a Beverly Hills sanitation worker who moonlights as a practice subject for budding proctologists?

Have you considered just being utterly incoherent, and not making sense as a person? That could work.

According to my exes, yes.

I have tricked the internet into thinking I speak Spanish/Portuguese... I really don't. But figured when I get served ads, I may as well learn.
