I sometimes cover my laptop camera even when I’m alone, not because I think someone’s watching, but because I know they could.

Do you have any small habits like that which people think are crazy but actually make sense to you?

I've done that before too dude, you're not alone in that. I know I do some stuff similar to this concept but my mind blanked lol

I habitually open my task manager and sort the CPU columns to see if some strange process that I haven't seen before is running with high CPU. If so, I immediately launch that Sysinternals TCP viewer and see if it has sent out any suspiciously large amount of data.

I also cover my webcam with a black tape. It's an absurd world when this is considered normal.

I have my browser history and cookies to delete every time I close the browser. Some of my friends make fun of me thinking it's because of porn but there's so much more information in there.

I have a gazillion different passwords and people I know have like three passwords that they alternate on everything, which I've tried to tell them is bad. But as lot more places have bruteforce protection nowadays I suppose.

I keep an external webcam unplugged when not in use.
It is easier to control than trusting software switches.

I was ratted by the Mexican mafia when I was in a mental hospital. They popped up on my PC in a remote chat. Apparently because I was using a cracked version of a RAT, they got me. I think they're still around. I didn't freak out. Police are in my PC too, so yh! XD

I mean, I cover my laptops camera always. I also use completely separate laptop to pay my bills, it is not connected to the same network as my other computers etc.
Being paranoid is damn fun and time consuming. I hate that I love it.

Don't trust any executable from anywhere dodgy. If it's too good to be true then it probably is

I buy gadget without cameras , mostly old medieval cell phones so I can use safely ..🤣

I don't have cameras on my laptop , I always tunnel my Wi-Fi network , I have a costume made phone case for my phone that covers the back cameras ..

I back up my music on an external hard drive , my work back up on different external hard drive , my personal data on another different external hard drive .. each and every hard drive in its plastic zipper back that is water proof and RFID protected ..

I don't use my personal info anywhere any place , even with people IRL ..
