Read this if you don't want to have your life ruined by federal agents or doxxers, or if at the very least you value having a little bit of privacy. Above all, use it as an introduction point. Do your own research.
First of all, if you are reading this, YOU probably will be targeted some day. I thought I wouldn't, because I was doing nothing wrong, but I was WRONG. If you journey into smaller parts of the internet where people like to say the n-word all day, you WILL be targeted. It might be law enforcement. It might be an angry twitter artist. Either way, the most important thing you can do to protect yourself from a life of misery (which I failed at) is to take this seriously and protect your personal information. You might think to yourself, "I'm not important enough for anyone to care", but that isn't true. That's what I thought, because I wasn't doing anything illegal, but it didn't matter. Turns out that tyrannical governments don't have very good judgement.
This is not going to be structured very well. It serves as an introduction to good privacy practices and how to avoid getting yourself fedded or doxxed. DO RESEARCH YOURSELF AND DONT TAKE EVERYTHING I SAY AS FACT. While all of my opinions are always correct and the most based (evendoe my opinions change), I could be wrong. And the last thing I would want is someone to blindly follow me into their own demise.
Anyways, most important step is to limit how much personal information you give out online. This includes what emails you use for what things, for example if you used an email with your bank and you use the same email to sign up for evil hacker forum or whatever, you are going to get found out through that email. Same thing applies to usernames. Never use the name username twice, unless you specifically want two profiles to be linked. For example, your pedocord and steam (DRM cuckhell) accounts might use the same names since you use both with the same friends you groom in your server. However, if you explicitly want an account to be completely separate from all else (anonymous) (you should be doing this with most of your accounts anyways) make sure to use tor or a vpn like mullvad (pay with monero) to create a NEW email just for that account. It is good to use browser profiles to categorise each thing based on how you want accounts to interact with eachother. You might have a profile for school/work, one for generic youtube stuff, one for your xitter account and any
