-Install an ad / tracker blocker on your phone and computer. Adblock(pro) & ublock origin are generally accepted as good ones last I checked.
-Purchase and install a vpn. It’s a simple program or app that you install. It hides your location from websites and apps. For the not tech savvy it sounds confusing but it’s not. I use AdGuard but any major one will work for your average user. Free vpns are available but I don’t recommend them. Just install the app/program and click connect and that’s basically it. I have it always on but some people use it just for “stuff they might want more private” wink wink
-delete as many apps as possible off your phone. Use the website instead. Apps are probably the number one data muncher in your entire life. The data they take varies but many take almost everything off your phone and sell it.
Facebook sells your data to over 1000 different data companies. If you can, stop using it altogether, if not at least delete the app.
Do all or even any of these things and you’ll be on your way. It’s taken me years to get where I am. I do a little here, little there. It adds up over time.
This is a topic I’m passionate about so I’m always up for answering more questions
