Part 1: Getting Started with Online Privacy 1.Use Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) - Instead of paid software like Microsoft Office, try free and open-source alternatives like Libre Office. Using FOSS ensures more security, and you can always audit the code yourself or by someone you trust. 2.Avoid Popular Email Services - Popular email services like Google and Yahoo are not secure, and they sell your data. Try using these email providers instead: •Cock.li (Invite Only) •Tutanota •Protonmail •Riseup •Horizon mail (Invite or $5) 3.Don't Give Out Your Real Information - Avoid giving out personal information like your phone number, home address, and real name. Use a fake name, such as "John Doe," to protect your identity online. 4.Avoid Google - Google is a data-hungry company, so it's best to avoid it whenever possible. Instead, switch to privacy-respecting search engines like Brave Search, Startpage, or DuckDuckGo. Use privacy-respecting cloud storage options like filen, Mega, or Ice Drive instead of Google Drive. 5.Use a Password Manager - It's essential to use a different password for every website you use. Use a password manager like KeePassXC or Bitwarden to generate and store your passwords securely. 6.Avoid Google Play Store and App Store - Instead of using the Google Play Store or App Store, try using Fdroid on Android or jailbreak your iPhone. 7.Avoid Social Media - It may be hard, but avoiding social media altogether can significantly increase your privacy. Try using for example to use Matrix instead of Discord Mastadon instead of Twitter etc. (And yes i was veryyy bored so yeah thats it you you have any sugestion too add here or a question you can ask it here ![]() |

Protonmail is basically just a honeypot for capturing dumb online criminals and hackers, who think protonmail is really safe. I dont follow Rule 1. There is nothing in this world that can make me use Libre or OpenOffice voluntarily Regarding rule 6: If it wasnt for the entire world abandoning SMS and using whatsapp, id be using like a fucking Nokia N95 or a 6300. Thats all i need I also basically follow rule 7 to 99%, except discord. I cant delete my account because i have to stay in touch with some people, which i otherwise couldnt reach. But i drastically limited my discord time. |

If you really care about your privacy "somewhere" you shoud use Tails Linux & Whonix for you particular activity. ... and definitely you should not use Windows ![]() Video: https://odysee.com/@switchedtolinux:0/tails-6.0-updates:1 |

Haha yeah I use Tails, either in a VM or on bare metal depending on threat model. I am quite paranoid about some completely innocent things I simply want to keep private. |

Oh yeah i use Tails sometimes mostly if i do shit on tor. But using Tails as a daily OS would be a pain, And ONE day i will switch of win 10/11. I just still have some games i want to finish and can't play on Win 7 or 8.1 (Also I can't really use win 7 as my daily driver ![]() |
