>"For other users, a more probabilistic approach can deanonymise them. For instance, a mere 10 URLs can be enough to uniquely identify someone – just think, for instance, of how few people there are at your company, with your bank, your hobby, your preferred newspaper and your mobile phone provider. By creating “fingerprints” from the data, it’s possible to compare it to other, more public, sources of what URLs people have visited, such as social media accounts, or public YouTube playlists."

STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES
HOLY SHIT OH NO GOOD GOD
Here's an idea: Stop tying your identity into every fucking account you make. You're like one of those retards who's been using the same unique username for 10 years and then wonders how people find so much dirt on them so fast.

>implying they can't still figure out who you are with more data points, which they would have, if they don't have social media information on you
Also, if they do get you then you're potentially screwed for as long as you stay with your current ISP.
