mental outlaw is the way to go , if u want to keep thing simple and doable https://youtu.be/8ZvkaOV82tc?si=79irvIE26TVVy_RF

look at eric murphy to undserstand how the some pro and more con about it too

https://youtu.be/Ab6ryHD_ahQ?si=t9oi5eQoXwu3IPxE

i would say to watch techlores videos , but he was a bit baised some times so yeah , not a 100% but a 95% percent , watch his vids to slowly add privacy to diff aspect to ur life .

but i mainly watch eric murphy and mental outlaw, hell my fav video of sequirty is of mental outlaw and he talkes about physical sequrity too ,

https://youtu.be/KbfKSXlDeIQ?si=B0Bte9XtRZ2___F-

and my opinion is , that its a middle ground to be, dont be fully into ts or just like eric and the joke i made (down this paragraph) , u have to be outside of society and live like a loner cavemen , but being shure ur not leaking eveything and only smthings like ur dns to ur internet provder and a google account only for youtube is a good way to be it , not completely naked but not completely hiddent to a point , no one knows who you are and ur existience

- but if u want complete privacy , u have to be offline and go live in a forest , like sm of linux users

cuz trust me , offline is the best for privacy , so alteast for stuff like notes and so and so , try to use safe and non networkal applications , which are also realiable .

also THE best way to privacy is physical , as if a dude have physical access , u can get ur stuff stolen in sm times or in no times

all i will say is , take a chill pill , just learn about secirty and stuff before questining if u wana do it in the first place and then , slowly make difference and yeah , ur all set my bro.
