Your browser knows a whole lot about you, and it shares that information with a great many strangers. From your passwords to your usernames, emails, numbers on credit/debit cards, pins, etc. As simple as it is to protect these information when browsing, so many of us ignore the dangers that come with the usual way of browsing.
Your browser almost certainly has a private mode where it  won’t save cookies, searches, or history. In Chrome, it’s called New incognito window. In Internet Explorer and Edge, it’s called InPrivate Browsing. In Firefox, it’s New Private Window. But it’s not perfect. Your ISP can still see where you’ve been, and every site you visit will still see your IP address.
An even better solution is to use the Tor browser, which hides your IP address and encrypts everything for most of the journey between your PC and whomever you’re communicating with. You can think of it as a very private private mode.
