Building Your Privacy Practice

Privacy is not all-or-nothing. Build protection in layers:

• Tier 1 — switch search engine, messaging app, and browser settings. Takes 30 minutes with immediate benefit
• Tier 2 — install ad blockers, audit app permissions, use a password manager. Takes an afternoon of setup
• Tier 3 — use a VPN, separate emails, enable encrypted DNS. Takes a weekend to configure properly

Each layer you add makes you a harder target for mass surveillance.
