Our lives and daytoday activities have largely moved onto our digital devices. But this new digital landscape is filled with people trying to monitor these activities and figure out exactly what we’re doing on our devices.
What if we don’t want all of our online activity to be viewable by strangers?
I decided to see if it were possible to set up new apple devices that weren’t tied to my identity in any way – that were completely anonymous. And I found the more private I wanted to be... the less convenient it was.
Some quick tips:
Use cash
Beware of iCloud
Disable Siri
NEVER remember wifi networks!
I chose Apple products for this video because they're mainstream, and will go over some other private solutions in other videos.
One resource I highly recommend if you’re interested in extreme privacy is a fantastic book by Michael Bazzel called “Extreme Privacy: What It Takes to Disappear”
