I honestly feel defeated right now, it feels like currently it's impossible to truly stay private online unless one is willing to move to a cabin in the woods with no internet and you stop using tech all together and truly become a ghost and stay offline. Can someone help me feel like everything I am currently doing is actually making a difference? Because right now it doesn't feel like it.

Reminds me how a popular pharmacy here won't give you the real market price of medicine until you give them your national ID number, if you don't they are horrendously jacked up.

Here we just skip straight to the horrendously jacked up prices.
