There&#8217;s already too much information about all of us online. And I&#8217;ve done a bunch of things to limit my digital footprint, such as using a VPN, the Firefox browser (I know they aren&#8217;t perfect, but it&#8217;s a good compromise), and setting up my Windows computer with a local account (I also have a Linux Mint laptop as well), but it doesn&#8217;t feel like enough. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes, I might have read through the EFF&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/ssd.eff.org\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/ssd.eff.org\/\">Surveillance Self-Defense<\/a> site a couple of times, which has coloured my opinion. Still feels like I could be doing more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The challenge I have is when people ask me questions about digital footprints, online surveillance, and privacy. I don&#8217;t know how to answer because there isn&#8217;t an easy answer or one that makes people feel comfortable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Maybe people shouldn&#8217;t be comfortable with this topic. I just feel that scaring people isn&#8217;t productive. People need to investigate and learn about the topic, and then get comfortable with the level of exposure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a couple of weeks since I spent a significant amount of time updating my website, LinkedIn, and other social media profiles.
