I am doing most of the things he mentioned but I’ve gone further. No social media at all. No Google. No YouTube. I buy physical media and self host all my drm free ebooks and other media I actually own. I only use fediverse sites. Librewolf on Linux behind a VPN and strong firewalls. I have no cameras or microphones on my property. No credit cards and no debt at all through being careful with my resource management.
That doesn’t mean I’m not an asshole though.

It was implied but since you point it out I’ll be explicit. I don’t use corporate social media. I.e. Facebook, twitter, bluesky etc, including video stuff like YouTube, tiktok
