How to protect yourself on the web

Your email address is the first thing to protect

If you want to protect your data, the web offers a lot of solutions, but unfortunately they are not well known. This is why the Free Software Foundation (FSF) created a useful guide that explains how to protect yourself on the web.

The FSF created this guide and then they handed it over a few different groups for translation. Today it’s finally available on their website, titled Email Self-Defense. It’s available in 7 different languages: english, french, german, russian, turkish and brazilian portuguese.

Thanks to this guide, we can really understand what’s the level of surveillance we are getting on a worldwide scale, and how you can defend. Whether you want to protect yourself, or the people you send email to, or you just want to feel like a spy for a bit, there are a lot of easy to use solutions.

It’s a very interesting reading, and it is definitely worth the time!
