Vanadium on Graphene is actually what I use as well haha, its just hard to convince people who already have enough on their plate with their actual jobs to make the lifestyle switch without it being viewed as very burdensome.

I think you're missing the point of a free market, I'm not advocating for exploiting people, I'm simply agreeing with the concept of having a good idea or a strong work ethic to generate your own wealth, WITHOUT exploiting peoples' civil liberties. The part I disagree with as is illustrated by massive corporations like Google, is when they center their business model around the concept of stealing and marketing peoples' personal information. There are in fact ways you can make a living without negatively impacting others.

Exactly, Google even advocated against the use of more intrusive tracking technology like fingerprinting stating it was too intrusive, I'll be the first to say I'm pro capitalist (if you can work hard and get rich, power to you), but when you are willing to invade the literal physical privacy of people who do not even want your products, it calls into question the legitimacy of your company.

Came across this article and it got me thinking, are there any simple ways to defeat advanced tracking methods (fingerprinting, tracking pixels, etc.)?

Obviously you could go the Tor on a virtual machine route, or a non persistent set up like TAILS, but what about a browser that's able to give say, a 80% solution?

I work in the security industry and am always looking for the solution that is simple enough that its palatable to a client (not asking to change your whole lifestyle, just push this button) but also relatively effective.
