You don’t have to hand over all your data to every app or service. ✋
Small changes make a big difference:
📧 Alias emails to separate accounts and hide your real email @MyStartMail @addy_io
📱 Numbers instead of your real phone @ln_vpn
💳 Virtual cards for online purchases @solcard @bitrefill
📬 PO Box or Private Mail Forwarder for deliveries
💬 Secure messaging like @SimpleXChat for your chats
🌐 Privacy respecting browsers like @brave
🔍 Search engines that don’t track you, like @KagiHQ
Every choice reduces the risk of hacking, manipulation, and exposure, protecting your life and those around you
