I would like to prevent websites like Reddit from having access to information about my devices, my IP, personal information, etc. I have began using Nord VPN and cleared my cache on both safari and Chrome for Reddit, downloaded a new browser, Opera, etc. What are some other useful tips for preventing a website from tracking your IP and knowing who you are?
