I believe the solution is a balance of people spending a little more time learning and companies not making so hard for people to fix/change stuff.

I see this a lot around me. People are convinced that nothing can changed or be fixed. And if you just turn to people with knowledge in general you get the complete opposite picture.

Knowledge gives power to the people and takes away all the desperation they have. You don't have to know specific technicalities but enough to know where to look to change what you want, and enough to get the feeling that you can actually change anything you want.

It's not full privacy or no privacy at all! Everyone has a different threat model which utilizes different practises. Yes, windows is no good for privacy, but limiting what windows can collect, and not using 3rd party software that collects even more info can be a pretty good start for most people. Also not advertising personal information on social media (or using privacy invasive social media at all)!

With just these you'll have much better privacy than anyone around you and a pretty good level of privacy in general! You can do so much for privacy but you'll have to face the comprimises the more private you go.

The think is do you need to go that deep for privacy or is something less private a better solution for you?
