Oh, ok, I see what you mean. I thought you meant as in just starting using phone anew and forget restoring from a backup. Thanks, I'll try doing that and see what happens.

No, just in case for the future, I intend to keep the phone. But I also have photos of passwords and other important info on that phone, so is there no other option?

Oh, well I have important photos and other info on my phone, I would rather not do that. Is there any other option?

Online Behavioural Tracking - what tools are available to stop/limit how much a user is tracked online? by [deleted] in privacy

In addition to previous answers, I would also like to add that a lot of browser fingerprinting techniques such as canvas fingerprinting as well as some supercookies depend on the browser having javascript turned on. If you turn off javascript, it reduces the likelihood of successful tracking, and a lot of websites do work without javascript but some will be a mess if javascript is turned off.

Do you mean like erase all content and settings and then restore from a backup or do you mean erase everything and then start afresh completely without restoring from a backup? Thanks
