[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 103564, post: 1056928"] Your latter statement says it all basically "as much as possible". Utilizing social media account apps on your phone or via browser either negates that option already. Then just as choosing your ISP, choosing a company you trust with your information is the same, as it will be still in their hands. Will the company encrypt your transmissions just to sell your information to a 3rd party anyway :unsure: So many decisions to consider. Personally i have discovered to simplify life, one could always just use a phone as a phone, and do the rest on a computer "desktop/laptop" and secure those "as much as possible". I use google VPN for my android, will it give me real privacy, well... Does it enforce some sense of security, it does to an extent on both. Since I use many google services and android itself is google, i choose to place my trust in that, as one might as well, using their services, then i would a third party audited by another third party if that makes sense.
