In general, I am using the internet and electronic communications less and lees. Often I am now asking myself if what I am going to do is necessary or does it have to be electronic.
As well as altering my choice to use, I am adding more and more security options. Mainly silly small things like the add-on that chooses HTTPS, ad blockers, or using Iron in stead of chrome, and so on. So, where I have an easy or ultimately seamless choice, Im choosing to encrypt and block. Nothing major, I know I am not secure, but more of my traffic is encrypted. Lastly, while I have used Linux servers for years, Im now trying to make Linux work for me as a Windows replacement. Partly because of the awful Windows 8 which I will down grade to from Vista (!!!), but more so because of these security issues.
So, nothing big, but a general move. But one key thing is that is people are anything like me, what we will see is more and more internet traffic become encrypted. Not sure what that with do to spy paranoia. Probably makes us default guilty.
The other plan is to use NO defenses what so ever. Open one's self up, but never ever do anything other then the tedious benign on the internet. Show the world how open and nonthreatening you are. Keep all the evil stuff like joint smoking, porn watching, political opinion, medical questions, employment details, etc off the electronic spy.
