The problem is that all these approaches to privacy are based on &quot;anonymous activities&quot; such as browsing the web without logging into any website, or participating into any social network where you connect with people you already know.<p>In order to make sure we don&#x27;t spill private data I think we need a privacy active monitoring browser. For example, it should have a list of all the identifying attributes such as name, email, facebook page, reddit nickname and make sure they are not passed outside. The privacy browser could also identify dangerous topics and pages and send warnings before searching&#x2F;posting&#x2F;loading anything. It would actually enforce good data hygiene to make this process much easier for people.<p>Privacy is hard to maintain, requires a lot of care and a single mistake could be enough to reveal your real identity. That&#x27;s why we need to create safe environments where privacy is a given.
