What we really need is an open source platform that host tools as plugins that do as many of the privacy and tracking blocking for us. Cause as one person pointed out, those of us who do it are just a drop in the bucket. It needs to be so simple my mom can do it. And then it needs to be popular to do it. But since there is no money in it, it won't happen. Thats just the human way.

Pretty simple if you just use the suggested and don’t try to go overboard to break anything people might use.
