I was recently asked for a breakdown of my daily device hygiene, communication stack, and physical safety boundaries, so I wrote about it. These are not my recommendations or options for others, but what I actually do myself.

What My Privacy and Security Stack Actually Looks Like

This is what I actually use, as opposed to what I recommend (which usually involves a lot of "it depends").

@yaelwrites That urgency thing is real though my one near-miss recently was a problem from multi-tasking, which is a bit more embarrassing. But also my antenna hadn't gone up the way they might with urgency.

I was in a meeting, a paperless post invitation came in from someone I know for a party at her house. She's really social, so while we're not close I've been a guest in her house before.

Clicked it, tried to login with google, got google auth form... nearly authed... saw URL was wrong.

@yaelwrites the meeting was just boring enough that I was happily banging out other stuff but not paying it that real attention I should when logging into things, especially if not prompted through my own initiative.
