How does my privacy and security tech stack match up against yours? Leave a comment to let me know what you do differently. I'm curious to know!

Email aliases - you say good for newsletter and one-offs. I use aliases for everything now. Here, in Australia, we've recently had 2 major companies hacked, with millions of addresses exposed, my (then) main email being one of those. Using Proton Mail aliasing, every one of my old email accounts now has their own different email (alias) - meaning if that organization ever gets hacked, my main Proton Mail address is safe and all I have to do is remove the exposed email (alias) and create another different one for that organization.

My security/privacy posture has been upgraded by learning and implementing your strategies Josh...keep up the good work bloke!

I cannot stress enough how good this video is. Big shoutout. Straight to the point and very insightful.

Just want to encourage you and say how glad I am this channel exists and what you're doing. I've been a cybersecurity advocate for a number of years and have had a number of vital security components in place in my digital life for a while now (password manager, hardware keys, credit freezes, etc). Several years ago, I thought about starting a channel like this but never had the time with a full time job. And this is exactly what I envisioned my channel being. No jealousy at all, I'm so glad you're here doing this. In fact, I often recommend this channel when I'm wanting to get certain points across. I just find, not many people want to listen which is frustrating. Keep up the great work!

Great summary video. Thank you. The Google comment is so true.

Great video as always šš¼ One thing I've heard is that if you freeze your credit (here in the UK) then it might affect your credit rating and some lenders may reject an application until 6 months after you've unfrozen your credit. I've not managed to confirm this myself but something worth being aware of if you're planning on any borrowing in the near future.
