1) There are so many security and privacy problems nowadays with hacks being on the news constantly. Are people losing trust in computers and internet services? How can we restore this trust?

2) If Microsoft wanted to spy on us, could they do it? And would we ever know?

4) None of my friends wants to use Signal. Do I change messenger or ... friends?

5) Do you like Mr Robot? 6) If you could sit on a bench for one hour and talk to anyone (from the present or the past), who would it be?

Thanks for replying! Restore the trust, I meant that the systems would become trustworthy, because right now I feel borderline paranoid and can't trust not even my pc's OS. And I don't like being paranoid and investing huge amounts of time to feel somewhat secure.... nor the idea of quiting technology because I don't trust it. Not sure I m making sense.

Do you guys have time to play pokemon :D or some other games? Do you like mmo rpgs?

1) If your system has been compromised, using an encrypted email service will not save you, right?

2) How can we use android devices safely, while retaining our privacy when we have to connect them to a gmail account? (And google collects data).

3) Is there any messaging app for android that you use and that you know does not collect data?

4) IT security fascinates me but I don't have the expertise. How can we, normal users, contribute to a safer and freer internet?

Thanks for the reply. It makes sense!

I am most concerned not with the material that we can delete (I actually found some plugins and tools to help me do that), but with the data that NSA for example has gathered from our personal messages. Even if we delete our messages, these discussions will be stored on their computers forever. Or am I being paranoid?

Limiting the content we share is the only solution to prevent the problem I guess, it doesn't look like there is a remedy for the data that is already away.

Do you think we should have a carefully planned strategy about what we share on social media? Because it is so easy to get carried away, when everyone else does not care about privacy. And we do want to connect with others.
