Avoid using "sign in with Facebook" or "sign in with Google" when using other sites. Create an account each time. Also Google records every search you make. Log out or use a different browser for Google searches.

Cellular triangulation is very rarely used, as the cellphone tower antennas are directional in a rather large coverage angle. 30 degrees is rarely good enough to triangulate anything. Much easier to get the position is by trilateration - measuring either signal strength or time differences of same signal reception. Almost anywhere you see the term triangulation, what is actually meant is trilateration.
Nice video! Followed the instructions and done all of it to the phones of my family members. Also the Google joke was epic XD that's one of the reasons I watch this channel all the time. Again, thanks for making a great and informative video.
Some seriously good stuff here. I've kinda given up being "untraceable" because no matter what anyone does, they're still traceable. You can be traced even if you live in the middle of nowhere without any technology of any kind. I'm not gonna get into details because I'm sure you already know what I'm talking about.
Great tips! I wish we had open source apps with a privacy team reviewing the code and issuing a privacy and security certification before an app could be trusted.

@jocaguz18 If you don't want your phone tracking and recording you simply deleting apps isn't enough. On Android phones some of those apps are never really gone, even when you think they are deleted and they are still running in the background.
Thanks for making this video and sharing with us. Appreciate your work. Please, if possible, make more videos to make users aware about how to be more safe on the internet.
the point of a VPN is to allow access to blocked ports ;P that, and also to make accounts from other countries, for example, Firefox Lite is only available in india, china, indonesia and a couple other places and is cool, similarly Pandora, for example, isn't available on the play store outside US
@ongakujigoku true... if you wanted actual security then of course you'd run your own node... for nearly ANY service, the provider has same access you have, if not more... your email provider can read your emails, your ISP can read all unencrypted traffic, your cellular provider can listen in on all your calls, etc... if they wanted to... similarly with stuff like protonmail, they might claim that only you can read the messages, but who has the keys to your account? it's not you, it's protonmail... and a lot of people miss that... VPNs and protonmail/tutanota and such are not super secure bulletproof protection, neither does tor make you a magically anonymous ghost, free of anything identifiable...
Very interesting video. I dismissed my iPhone and Android phone, tired of this 24/7 surveillance regime and got a blackberry passport and believe me I am not the only one around that has done that. if you can give blackberry users some indications it will really appreciate it. I am in process of building a Raspberry pi to replace my laptop so bye bye Microsoft as well!
Hi sir... i just downloaded DNScloak and find it very confusing (sorry im a newbie)... can you make a Tutorial just for DNScloak? that would be awesome. Keep doing this work Sir, very very important for us, who dont know how to protect ourselves. Keep Rocking!
I like that you reacted to my comment on your last video and explained further, why it's better to use my VPN slot for NetGuard instead of using a VPN on my phone. I also try to use a private DNS now, but it's not working on the mobile network. Anyways, keep it up!

Hi, could you do a video talking about which version of linux is the best for Security and Privacy and showing some configurations to get maximum security and privacy in the builds. And can you do some video talking about Google Alternatives, a complete guide on each app to install and how to configure each app for get our informations protected.
So Developer mode is useless for security i noticed ? Even the sound and camera is active after I disabled it..Am still not in control, every app will try and still data in the background regardless the privacy set up
If you truly want to protect your privacy with your smartphone and you use Android, download the GrapheneOS. It is super secure and structured just like Android. You can replace most of the Android apps with F-Droid. Also, iOS has an open source repository. It's called Alt-Store.
Instead of net guard, I choose to use blokada. Its a system wide adblock that blocks most "analytics" shit too, so I think its a valid compromise. It uses the VPN feature too, to filter out ads, so that's why they can't coexist.
I take issue with VPN being useless on a phone, especially in a country like Australia where internet providers are legally obliged to keep 2 years of user activity metadata. Also I recommend Startpage over DuckDuckGo for much more relevant search results.
Startpage was recently bought out by a marketing company, though. Probably still better than using Google directly, but be wary of putting too much trust in them.
I'm surprised not to see more comments about Brave Browser. Not having to watch another ad on RUclips just by using Brave. Ads take up a lot of bandwidth and so does all the background tracker software. Brave blocks a sh1t load of that unwanted stuff, which uses much less of my data each month, allowing the internet to load noticeably faster. It's really noticeable on my universities wifi during peak usage.
We can’t use more than one of these services simultaneously over iOS, so which one do you recommend to keep on all the time? Not sure if dns trumps firewall or not. Looking forward to hear your thoughts.
Great info, thanks. Next time, please make it a little longer so you can speak slower and more clearly; then we won't have to keep backing up to catch what you said. PS: will add your link to my blogs
Hi, I don't understand how encrypted DNS queries protect our privacy, let's say from our ISP. If I get the IP of a domain anonymously, the IP has to be routed through the network, and the ISP does know what I am searching for.
Onboard is also good which is also open source. My problem is anysoftkeyboard is that there was no emojis. While in Onboard you can access them by holding the enter key
this is fabulous, subbed and faved. I've used Netguard but went out and bought PIA VPN but I'm guessing Netguard is better from what you say and you can't use them both together. I'll check out your other vids. Gratitude from middle earth
I have my phone rarely move from home, and then only in flight mode. At home, I have a professional firewall which also blocks outbound traffic. This is a mandatory feature you must have, if privacy is of your concern. And, have a burn phone and number for all those occasions you need to be "normal". With no stored number and no information about you.
Why is Netguard needed? The phone already has this option of turning off app privileges to data, wifi, camera, location, etc… Good video, there was lots of helpful info. Thank you.
I don't care that this video is 6:11 long. It's still a 5-minute tutorial.
Lol

yeah! np, I really appreciate I get to see extra. 😊

actually, its 6:12
This should be required viewing for everyone with a phone.
Much agreed.
Google would lobby hard against that
For sure!
See i was thinking 🤔, should I be watching this? Then it dawns on me this, should be basic knowledge! (I mean your privacy)
Sadly most people don't care about learning this stuff because they aren't educated in the first place so they think it doesn't apply to them or something. Sad.
Here's another useful tip, If it's advertised on television don't trust it.
That goes for apps, games, VPNs etc.
@Ron Why not?
Can't trust ads anywhere
Don't trust anything
@S I'm sure they're all looking after you bud. After all, you don't have anything to hide unless you're a criminal.
