> If you don't take steps -- then what are your reasonings why? (Beyond the staple excuse of "I have nothing to hide"). I have nothing to hide except of when I run Tor browser. > Do you run any specific kind of operating system (say, Windows, Mac, etc) and why? Does it matter to you personally whether you are tracked? I quit Windows since 7 became outdated because modern Window's tracking bothers me, not because of somebody gets informed about something I do not want to be known but because it messes me with using my device (I have to decide when to update, when to reboot and when to change some settings, not a vendor). Debian may have some pesky settings which make OS leaking some data about me, but at least it doesn't bother me when I am trying to use my computer. > For example, do you store files on cloud storage as-is? No, because upload is always easy and download is always hard. A lot of HDDs works great for me. > Do you avoid or block social media? If so or if not, why? I do not find any of these interesting except of Youtube. And I try avoid using it too much because torrents have better video and not video content.
