• Create different browser profiles so that your browsing habits are captured under different identities, on Firefox (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Multiple_Firefox_Profiles and https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles) or Google Chrome (https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2364824)
• When creating a new email account or social media account for an identity, it is a good idea to connect to the server’s website using Tor Browser or Orbot (for mobile devicesː https://securityinabox.org/en/guide/orbot/android). If a contact email address is required, consider using a disposable email address, one that you only use for that account. But be mindful that the email provider you choose doesn’t also collect and reveal the connections between that new ‘disposable’ email account and your real identity – for example, this can be almost impossible when trying to create a disposable Gmail account via a Chrome browser when one of your main ‘real identity’ email accounts is already linked to it. Consider using other email providers you usually don’t use for your ‘real identity’ email accounts.
• Write up and establish ‘basic house cleaning’ steps you take as you ‘enter in and out’ of the accounts for your different identities. This includes logging out of accounts, erasing cookies, not having your browser save your passwords, etc. Obviously you also need to manage different passwords for each one of those accounts so we strongly recommend you to have a look at tools such as Keepass (https://www.securityinabox.org/en/guide/keepass/windows) for instance which work for all OS.
• If you have the resources and motivation you can separate your identities per device or operating system. This can include using virtual machines for instance, as explained at the end of this chapter. This option can be an incredibly useful way to use and manage your various accounts.
