You can check how many things from your browser alone can be fingerprinted by sites. A VPN or a VM not protect you. You are compromised simply by clicking on a link. (Well, even if not compromised, you'll still be fingerprinted).
Sites can even know stuff like what's your time-format on your device, your system kernel type, what IP you are coming from (if it's corporate, it is VPN), what's your screen resolution size - etc.
Stands to remind that the best deal with this we got is to use QubesOS or TailsOS (not as good) for secure access to any network - but still, you can get fingerprinted.

How many of you read privacy policy of applications that you use?
Critical Computing Theory
I read privacy policy completely (yes or no)
Guys, please read privacy policy... Please remember that most of the american/european sites do not have obligation to respond to India Gov, however, Interpol can still ask and get stuff from them through a subpoena.
