Re: How to safely start a new stealth on old computer
theres much debate about amazon's supposed ability to track mac addresses. The fact is they cannot, but the algorithm they use for identifying users to a single computer is extremely complex and largely accurate.
A reformat would be recommended for amazon and ebay as well in YOUR situation. Yes, a new user profile would normally suffice, but you are not using VPNs to separate user accounts... so that means anything left behind from your tainted account's main computer profile can cause a mess for your new squeaky clean IP.
Current browsers can often hide add-ons or notification settings that are hidden beacons. Email images can be just as risky, so the best route for both ebay and amazon for you is to just format and reinstall your OS and entirely separate from the email accounts associated BEFORE you format.
