I use Bitdefender Total Security which you can customize however you want. You buy one license and it’s good for 5 devices so I use it on my desktop, laptop and both cell phones.

My browser is Firefox or Brave depending on which I use. Both are set up to clear all history, cache, site permissions etc. on exit and I quite often clear it between sites while searching.

Privacy Badger is my tracker blocker and it works on ads as well. You go to settings and adjust whatever trackers you can block. I searched Google and blocked every tracker they have and there’s a ton of them. There’s others that are almost as bad.

I never get personalized ads and I also have no microphone or camera connected to the desktop and the laptop they are disabled through Bitdefender and device manager. My cell phone microphone is disabled except when used for the phone. I also reset the smart TV advertising ID about once a month and opt out of ACR.
