I'd start with a VPN. I'm personally a big fan of Tunnel Bear as it is incredibly easy to setup and has a good mobile app as well. TorrentFreak has some good VPN reviews. Lots more at https://www.reddit.com/r/vpnreviews/ https://www.reddit.com/r/vpnreviews/
Some posters in the original thread had reservations about VPNs https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12980878 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12980878 .
For me the benefit of a VPN would be protection against my ISP being hacked rather than stopping someone with sufficient motivated from GCHQ accessing my data.
- linux-modder 10y agoAs a tag on to this, set a solid hardened ( to your level of tin foil) firewall, complete with replacing router with open|DDwrt one and setting up a VPN over ssh from within your own home network, this has several benefits, you know the holes in the firewall, you use the bandwidth you are paying for already, it makes for a relatively cheap private cloud that also allows for smaller and or lighter footprint devices that can stream remotely from your home storage and also know that your nfs / remote cloud is under control of someone you trust (yourself)
