OP here—thanks for all the tips! Didn’t realize encryption was such a big part of how to permanently delete history.
Tried BleachBit and it worked for my browser stuff. Still nervous about my old phone tho—gonna encrypt + reset it this weekend.
Quick Q: Anyone know if VPN logs mess this up too? Like, can they still see my history even if I wipe my device?
(Also, DBAN sounds intense but might try it on my old laptop.)
