If you are talking to someone who is not currently using:

* A password manager
* MFA on most or all accounts that allow it
* An up to date operating system on all of their devices

Please stop yourself from recommending:

* A VPN
* Tor
* Tails (or any variations/equivalents)

Just… rewind a bit and help with the first items first.

@hrefna the VPN market is booming for something that - afaict - does a little less than nothing for security 😬

I don’t think we’re supposed to believe the security claims. But when Google put “hackers, solved” in their *phone ads* because it has an integrated VPN… I *wince*
