Domain Registrar
Registering a domain anonymously is very important, especially considering they can reveal a lot about you in a whois
search if you haven't paid for "whois protection". These services will protect you.

Email Providers
Email is a nessecary evil that is required in this world. Email is inherently insecure, which means your email provider can read any of your messages. These providers offer encryption, anonymity and security.
Aliases
This provides multiple aliases for your emails, so you do not have to reveal your true email address. This is extremely useful especially if you are worried about your email being leaked.
Messengers
Your messages must be secure as they reveal a lot about you. Choosing an encrypted messenger will prevent any unauthorized users from reading any of your messages.

Operating System
Your operating system is the most important part, if it is insecure then you can assume any activities done are also compromised.
Password Managers
Password managers are a great way to both securely and remember all of your passwords. Your passwords are saved in an encrypted database, which you only need to remember 1 password while generating secure passwords for all of your accounts.
Search Engine
Your search engine knows a lot about you. This information is often times sold to 3rd parties and given away to government agencies. They often show biased search results. Choose a better one here.
