You don't need to run your own node.

Just make sure you don't use a wallet that uploads your view keys to the node...

not true. watch the leaked Chainalysis video (e.g. currently available at https://odysee.com/@nyxmr:d/chainalysis:f, may not be in the future). they did a lot of their correlations by running nodes and observing transactions that were directly submitted through those nodes.

run your own full node.

Which wallet? Most walets upload view keys to servers.

All wallets are effected. It's not wallet specific.
