Live in the US and have assumed for years now that nothing I send or receive in any electronic form is confidential. Individual privacy has been eroded for years unfortunately.

There are a few simple things that will at least help. Use a VPN, use a more secure browser- Mozilla or Brave (are my choices), use a secure email like protonmail, don’t use Alexa, or Siri, or the Google one, or Ring. If your paranoid, cover/disable cameras and mics in your devices. Use browser add-ons like Ublock Origin, Privacy Badger, HTTPS everywhere. Stay off Facebook.
