I’ve been gradually building my own privacy-friendly toolkit to reduce data tracking and protect my digital identity. It’s not perfect, but these are the tools I use (and recommend) for everyday online life.

🌐 Browsing & Search

• Brave – A privacy-focused browser with built-in ad blocking and tracker protection.
• Tor Browser – For anonymous browsing when I want maximum privacy.
• DuckDuckGo – A search engine that doesn’t track queries.

📧 Communication Tools

• Signal – My favorite messaging app for encrypted chats and calls.
• **Atomic Mail** – A secure email service with strong encryption, anonymous sign up, and seed phrase recovery.
• Element – A decentralized chat app built on Matrix.

🔑 Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)

• Authy – Easy to use, syncs 2FA codes across devices.
• Aegis – Open-source 2FA app for Android, highly secure.
• YubiKey – Hardware security key for maximum account protection.

🔐 Passwords & Security

• Bitwarden – Open-source password manager I use across all devices.
• KeePassXC – Offline, open-source password manager.
