I recently watched some programs on the TV about scams and such. Scary. Anyway I do try to be safe online, though my wife thinks I am a bit OTT. Computer. I use Linux only, not MS or Apple. It is linked to the router by cable, no wifi. The UFW firewall is on. I always run any updates. However, no anti-virus. Email I do use the spam filter. I am very careful about what links I click on. Browser I use noscript, ghostery, AdBlock plus, Privacy Badger However at the moment I do not use any VPN. Mostly when browsing I use Duckduckgo or Startpage. Phone I do have a mobile phone, but it is not a smart phone. So am I OTT? Or do I not do enough? I would be interested in any comments, Neil -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
