Mik voltak azok a források amik elősegítették az adatvédelmedet
Said that you should keep a "real identity" where you "pretend to be a sheep." Make Google searches for things you don't believe in, post tweets/statuses that you don't actually believe but perpetuate the prevailing narrative. AKA: look like you agree with the masses. Meanwhile, keep a second anonymous identity. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8lHsIf6aA8) This is incredibly stupid. First, it doesn't work (source: https://lifehacker.com/generating-a-bunch-of-internet-noise-isnt-going-to-hi-1793898833), second you can easily burn an "anonymous" identity by accident and now it's linked to your real identity. True digital anonymity is almost (not 100%, but damn near) impossible. (Source: https://anonymousplanet.org/)

22M, no social life because always paranoid about being hacked?
If you lack any real technical know-how, then look into the basics for securing your primarily used computer. You have a ton of options like proper internet security through ESET. Glasswire is one of my new favorites. There's hardening guides for Windows too.

What can you do to make Windows private/secure? RANT: I am on my *last* straw with Linux
That being said, with the right Windows edition and settings, you can make Windows quite private. Use Windows 11 Enterprise or Education. You can either buy a subscription for it or use an activator like "Massgravel". Be aware that the latter is illegal in most countries, but Microsoft hasn't cared so far. On both editions you can fully deactivate telemetry. Use group policy to do so. Also take care of Cortana. Think about hardening Windows for better security.
- Glasswire + MS ATP or ESET?
