Most privacy advice is either uselessly simplistic (“use private tabs”) or impractically paranoid (“throw your phone away and live in a cabin”).
Stop Snooping focuses on the rational middle: high-leverage privacy strategies that eliminate the vast majority of tracking while preserving your daily convenience.
The 4-Tier Standard
Every guide evaluates solutions against our four core tiers:
- Tier 1: Exposed — Default settings; single identity reused everywhere; zero blast radius containment.
- Tier 2: Masked — Low-friction obfuscation; platform relays; disposable temp tools.
- Tier 3: Isolated — Independent infrastructure; owned custom domains; segregated aliases per service.
- Tier 4: Sovereign — Zero-knowledge cryptography; end-to-end encrypted storage; persona compartmentalization.
