I'm more concerned about the future of mass surveillance so I'm more worried about companies and goverments more than small hacker groups. I don't want anyone to leak my identity so I make sure no one can trace my location and guess my real identity. basic stuff like doing all online stuff through tor, buying services with monero. and having only a small number of people who knows me. though I'm not a criminal, I'm just someone who wants a private life.
the only question I have is whether or not matrix is safe on It's own, I'll probably buy a vps and host my own if that wasn't the case.
