Digital privacy is something that a lot of people are concerned about today which is why they are doing everything possible to make sure that their data are not stolen by companies to be sold for their own financial gains.

When it comes to protecting your digital privacy, how paranoid are you about it or it's something that you don't give so much attention?

I've been increasingly concerned about digital privacy lately. I feel that I'm doing pretty much everything I can to protect my privacy while still participating in modern society. :P

I am constantly going back and forth on how much effort I want to put into trying to protect my privacy. Right now I have something on my network that actually does a lot of blocking of various trackers that attempt to eat my privacy...though...it doesn't work when I'm on my work computer cause we use a software that changes the DNS.

Are you using the Mullvad DNS that blocks trackers?

I run PiHole on the network. I had quad9 DNS for a minute but I was having issues so I don't remember what my upstream DNS is currently.
