An extensive manual to protect yourself online π¨βπ», written with the help of six hackers and understandable by anyone. It's free, with no ads, trackers or sponsoring. I just want to make the online world a safer place π
This guide is great for novice users. Everything you keep telling your mom and more. I've been sharing the Dutch version with every non tech-savvy family member I have. Saves moms worldwide.
Pros:
Thorough, easy to understand, ideal to send to your mom.
@jacqvon Yes. Couple of times in my life :-) And it was because of stupid mistakes, like not changing my weak password or illegally downloading a game with ransomware in it. I've had my fair share...
As a technology journalist I notice that most people lack basic knowledge of how the internet works. So I thought: why not change that. I called a few hacker friends and asked them for tips. That's how Watch Your Hack was made!
I hope technology savvy people share the manual with friends & family who can use some basic online security tips :-)
Happy to see this in English now! Itβs already helped a lot of people understand basic things about being safe online, and how to protect your data and privacy. I love that itβs written in a way anyone will understand. Highly recommended to also send this to your non-techie friends and family!
Pros:
Actionable tips on online security for anyone: non-techies and techies
