What can people do to better protect their privacy on the Internet?

In the 21st century, the Internet has been booming ever since. But we have seemed to lose control over our personal information on the internet. Many people go to different websites and do not want other people to know about their browsing history.

People can use a lot of stuff to protect their privacy on the internet. To avoid being seen on the internet, people need to use VPN (virtual private network). VPN helps you to be anonymous and you can surf anything that you want on the internet without being caught. It helps a lot of professional hackers, journalists and high-profile officers to avoid their location on the internet.

People should use two-factor authentication to avoid being hacked or scammed. A lot of people go to many different sites and use the same password for everything, this can make your account more vulnerable to be hacked.

People should always place a sticker on their webcam as there can be a possibility of hackers and government officials going through your history. Use search engines like DuckDuckGo because they do not search or store your website history or personal data. People should always turn their location off on their mobile phones because of apps like Snapchat and Google Maps makes it easier for the hacker to see your location easier and makes you an easy target.

People also need to configure out of deleting their cookies because cookies cause a lot of problems like advertisements, increases in the price of things you go through different websites and storage of useless data.
