Interesting project and a good read overall but comes across as too much information for the average user. Nice for the Windows and MacOS tech users probably. The recommendations for Wire and Keybase are not among my favorites to say the least. The recommendation with turning off JS in Google Chrome on mobile is not going to be liked by the average user I guess. And having people use Tor browser and Tails and QubesOS could be a frustrating adventure for the average user. Still a nice and kind of refreshing read from the point of concept.
