Didn't know this would be activated. How to disable it?

when cruising in the net all kind of trackers and sniffers are activated on all the site... especially the advertising companies. and most "social medias". To get them disconnected or left out there are some plug-ins to use. on all my browsers there are the following:
NoScript or NoScript Suite Light / Disconnect / Ghostery / AdBlock Plus / Adblocker Ultimate / uBlock Origin /
That should help a lot, but beware, there is some actions needed especially with the noscripts in the beginning. and some site don't work properly anymore. the question is, can one live with that? hehe
Or you use the Brave Browser and Tor... but since brave is based on googles chrome and tor was created by the military, i'm not to sure of it either... since the internet is just ones and zeros. 🙃

You said it ..ones and zeros , meaning we have no control over a code we havent created
