Time to fully protect my own privacy guys. I’ve heard a VPN should be used for all internet browsing. If that’s the case- how do I do it?

Thanks pedes.

It is a Virtual Private Network. Basically, you connect to the VPN and it hides (encrypts) you data transfers online as well as providing you with a different IP address (you'll have the VPN host provider's address).

There are many of them out there, but you want to use a provider that does NOT keep logs. Preferably one that has machines overseas (provides at least some rudimentary legal protections). Do some homework on those. I hesitate to list specific provider recommendations in the clear. We may be entering a really bad period, ya know...
