  • Don't use your real name or any kind of identifier in your username, there are tools out there that can find accounts with the same username.
  • Be careful what you say and try limit any identifable information about yourself. It's uncomfortably easy to find hoards of personal information on someone through "Google dorking".
  • Use different and complex passwords on your accounts.
  • Don't tie your Saidit account or any account where you openly discuss controversial ideas to your personal email or phone number (I personally signed up on saidit without an email).
  • If you're very paranoid, browse sites using Tor Browser + VPN inside virtual machine. However, third-party VPNs are not fully trustworthy themselves so if you can be bothered learn to make your own VPN.
  • Make sure any webcam you have has the ability cover the camera, if not doing manually yourself.

I didn't know this, thanks.
