I tried to go hard on privacy, but the more you know the more you realize how difficult it is.

So, the best thing to do if figure out who you don’t want to see your info. If it’s the government then you are basically out of luck in my opinion.

I stopped stressing about it when I decided to not let my need for privacy to interfere with my work.

In my personal life, things are more private luckily.
