Indeed.

I suggest -- as far as possible or reliable -- using a privacy focused
browser and privacy plugins

now I am trying LibreWolf, with Enhanced Tracking Protection in Strict mode,
with those plugins: uBlock, PrivacyBadger, Disconnect, Disable WebRTC

or, with firefox-like browsers, you can try the Disable JavaScript (or
another similar) plugin to customize the default JS state (on or off),
the disable behavior (by domain or by tab) etc...

uhm... this is interesting to me
please could you give more details, better if with a complete example?
thanks in advance
