So what you are saying is that I should remove privacy badger?

Right now I use uBlock, privacy badger, canvas defender and decentraleyes together.

Download DuckDuckGo browser. It has a built-in free VPN. Tracking blocker

Go to settings on your phone, VPN, turn all that crap on.

I am very over the top happy with the service considering it's free and I hate ads and hate being tracked.

But if you know someone at DuckDuckGo and they would pay me, I would go stand on the street corner with a sign. Fuck. Tracking. We need real privacy laws.

The Fourth Amendment is just for this. I consider my phone like I would a filing cabinet in my office. I don't understand why the laws don't apply.

I'd be happy to learn why this is getting downvoted. This kind of easy to use tracker blocker works, does it not ?
