Examples may include using tor as your daily browser, using VPNs when you can’t use tor etc.

I’m curious to have some philisophical discussion over if there are actually any visible benefits to being private while online…

    Alternatively, when you’ve had enough, and you start resorting to violence you’ll be glad you don’t have a large digital footprint. Obviously if you never do anything of note, privacy has no value to you. But to those that need it, privacy is priceless.

        Yes most people are. The you is the general you, not you specifically. But the theoretical person/people who do decide the time is right, will be glad to have that privacy.

        Basically privacy is worthless if you don’t need it and priceless if you do.
