My privacy journey started about 2 years ago, but I have started to gain interest again recently so here I am.
I have done the Techlore SPA quiz ( Security, Privacy & Anonymity Quiz | Techlore SPA Test ) and got 142, which is stated to be āBelow Averageā, that means I still have much to do to improve my privacy and security in general.
What is your score everyone? Curious to know how I compare to others here
The SPA is a funny gadget to let you know what you could improve. But you shouldnāt forget that it doesnāt have everything you could/should do and that it canāt 100% adapt to your threat-model.
Hello ! I feel like this quiz should be more promoted, itās pretty cool.
Despite all my efforts since the beginning of the year, I only got 146, so below average too. The quiz is really well made to quickly assess what to improve. I guess deleting Google and ditching Windows are to be my next moves.
You are absolutely right. Each person has their own threat model.
Some of the points that are in the quiz are not in anybodyās interest to implement unless you have an extreme threat model like Edward Snowden (For an example taking your camera/mic of your phone)
But for me, I still have various weak points I need to work on; one is that I still use type one Android (That is filled with bloatware/trackers and badly written code from a Chinese manufacturer)⦠I mean, at least the phone was cheap
Iāve been around for quite some times now and I wasnāt aware of this quizz. Got a 196 out of 306n which is fine given my threat model.
I think that the keypoints in the privacy field are not about how to become a maximalist, but to stay informed and to know about the options and alternatives to GAFAM that some people are giving to us.
