This sort of thing drives me crazy. It's so pervasive that it's impossible for users to keep up with opting out of everything.

All one can really do is treat corporations adversarially and assume the worst. It's crazy that I need to run a VPN from my home since my own ISP would use deep packet inspection (aside from logging DNS entries) to profile my household for advertising purposes.

Recommendations: - Mullvad: they take cryptocurrency, account ID is a randomly generated number that can't be recovered, no logging, support Wireguard, reasonably fast, works well on mobile - Cloudflare WARP: centralized corp but they don't sell customer data and aren't incentivized to do so (disclaimer: for now), really damn fast since you're probably hitting Cloudflare sites from your ISP anyway, they use Wireguard (but in a custom setup), works really well on mobile
