… to avoid being known by website who can only see the part of your traffic you choose to send to them. 🤪🧐

Mostly it's useful if you don't trust your ISP or other things in between you and the Internet as a whole and just want to hide activity from them. (With so many ISPs basically spying on their own users this does make sense. Plus public WiFi... *shivers* )
