I am using firefox and in the pat I always used cancel cookies after browser closure, but in the last months I become lazy and remove that flag. Does it really improve privacy to always remove cookies after browser close?

Maybe, if you also reduce fingerprinting, and never log in anywhere. However, I've recently found some things that Brave nor Tor Browser (with js on) catch, such as the navigator js object properties, feature preferences and webgl-in-canvas rendering.
This means that the only way to be non-fingerprinted right now is to use Tor Browser with full security enabled (no javascript) and thus you shall have no web apps, and you will be happy.
After read that I know that effort is good but not enough if I don’t control my network border.

Depends on what your threat profile is, but yes. I think that if you're actively targeted you shouldn't be on SN. There are better resources to spend time and bytes on, and take risk for.
That piece is right though, secure phones are really hard to get right.
I just need to reduce my exposure, I'm not a person of interest as far as I know. Maybe one day, that's why it's good to have well-established security practices from now on.
Right. Pre-shtf we'll probably want to beat the correlation algos. But tbh I'm not sure if we can ultimately beat them - I assume everyone sells every piece of data, all tor hops are always compromised, that all cams are always exposed and have 100% coverage, and that I'll have to start from scratch if it happens.
In the end I think one would anyway need to either be able to repel everything that comes at them, or go dark and completely switch habits - burn all bridges and never look back. Both ways are at high risk of fucking up.
I think so, it's a complete change of habits that doesn't match the profile and could draw unnecessary attention. Maintaining useless patterns that feed the algorithms while keeping what really matters out of their focus is the way to go, reducing exposure. There's no way to have complete privacy while being online. Now, if it's your work tool and you're a person of interest or exposed, you'll need disposable phones and connection cards, routers to carry around, and even then you'll be slightly exposed.

But anyways, 100% privacy is when you do not use internet anymore.
NOTHING is private when you use internet.
Private means you do not make it public.
Internet by definition is a PUBLIC place.
So don't put anything private on a public space.
privacy is a spectrum, but as virginity once lost you can't regain it back.
Don't run naked in a public plaza and scream out loud that you want privacy... it's ridiculous.
You're writing something that everyone already knows...tell me something I don't know
I wrote enough...
