My friend thinks clearing browser history is the same as a VPN

I had to explain that his search for 'weird foot fungus' in Omaha last Tuesday still went through his ISP first. What's the silliest privacy myth you've heard someone swear by?

What if he's onto something though? It stops one way they can see you, so it's not totally crazy. Better than doing nothing at all.
