Hello Martin!

 MK> Maybe Google Incognito with a VPN?

https://proton.me/blog/google-incognito-lawsuit

Apprently, even in Incognito mode the problem seems to be "the  
company stores people's browsing data in the same logs, whether  
they're in regular or private mode."

:(

But.. although,

"the splash page of a new private tab lets you know that Chrome  
won't see your browsing history, cookies, site data, or  
information entered in forms. This means Chrome won't save any  
of this data locally on your device"  ...

.... this "does not mean that other websites or even Google  
itself can't see and log your data. Other websites will still  
be able to see that you've visited their page. Although they  
can't see any tracking cookies previously associated with you,  
they can still see your IP address, what browser you're using,  
and what device you're using, among other potentially  
personally identifying data. Google Analytics and Google's ad  
network will still see you.

So, yeah.. a VPN would seem to be an absolute minimum layer  
even with so-called privacy modes.
