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.

    Ah sorry, that’s not what I intended that part to mean, I wasn’t saying brave was particularly unique in that fashion, just that it has a company that develops it, which makes money from its market share.

    Trying to explain to the other person how a boycott is still a thing for products that are free.
