Basic measures for reducing access to your content and data:

• When giving personal information to a web service, make sure the service provides an encrypted connection for you to access it from (the url should begin with https://). You can use the browser add-on HTTPS Everywhere for Firefox, Chrome and Opera browsers, provided by the Electronic Frontier Foundation to help you force https connections with websites that offer encrypted connections (Seeː https://www.eff.org/https-everywhere).
• If you use it correctly, Torbrowser will mask your IP address, thereby increasing your anonymity online (Seeː https://securityinabox.org/en/guide/anonymity-and-circumvention).
• You can install on Firefox, Chrome, Safari browsers some privacy add-ons like Privacy Badger which blocks spying ads and invisible trackers, Adblock Plus which block annoying ads or Ghostery which block third-party tracking scripts used to collect data on user behavior. Through your browser’s settings, you can also review and improve your privacy- and security-related settings, including deleting cookies on a regular basis (See: https://securityinabox.org/en/guide/firefox/windows and https://help.riseup.net/en/better-web-browsing).
• You should use strong and different passwords for each web service you use - if not, someone that intercepts or gains your main password could use it to access all your other accounts that use the same password (Seeː https://securityinabox.org/en/guide/passwords).
