Below is a quick rationale of why we need to take these steps, followed by the first 8 steps you can take to take your privacy back for good!

以下是我们为什么需要采取这些步骤的简要说明 ，然后是您可以采取的前8个步骤，以永久恢复您的隐私！

TL;DR at the end :)

TL; DR结尾：)

为什么？ (Why?)

Nothing to hide, Nothing to fear.

没有什么可隐藏的，没有什么可恐惧的。

One of the biggest lies we hear every day: Why should you hide personal information, pictures, messages, thoughts, ideas, unless you have something to hide? I have just finished reading Permanent Record, By Edward Snowden. And I came out thinking (scared) of all my personal information out there, stored somewhere on a company server. Pictures, notes, messages, messages to crushes, and more — possibly unencrypted, open for exploitation, or worse. And with loose laws, government intervention and legislation forcing companies to leave doors open, and data unencrypted — it is not easy to have confidence in any service.

我们每天听到的最大谎言之一： 为什么要隐藏个人信息，图片，消息，思想，想法，除非您有什么藏起来？ 我刚刚读完爱德华·斯诺登的《永久唱片》。 然后，我想到了所有存储在公司服务器上的个人信息(害怕)。 图片，笔记，消息，暗恋消息等等—可能未加密，容易被利用甚至更糟。 加上宽松的法律，政府干预和立法迫使公司敞开大门，数据未加密 ，要对任何服务抱有信心并不容易。

In the wise words of Edward Snowden:

用爱德华·斯诺登的话来说：

“Arguing that you don’t care about the right to privacy because you have nothing to hide is no different than saying you don’t care about free speech because you have nothing to say.” ― Edward Snowden

“争辩说您不关心隐私权是因为您没有什么可隐瞒的，与说您不在乎言论自由是因为您无话可说一样。” - 爱德华斯诺登

1.快速检查 (1. A Quick Checkup)

The first step is damage control. One of the best sites to do a damage assessment is Have I Been Pwned. With an email checker, and a password checker in one. When a data breech happens, it is quickly updated on the site and with options to notify you of data breeches with your email, it is worth a checkup now!

第一步是损害控制。 进行损坏评估的最佳场所之一是“我已被认捐” 。 带有一个电子邮件检查器和一个密码检查器。 发生数据漏洞时，它会在网站上快速更新，并且具有通过电子邮件通知您数据漏洞的选项，现在值得进行检查！

You can clearly see who/what/where you have been compromised. Allowing you to take targeted action to change passwords, emails, usernames, etc.

您可以清楚地看到谁/什么/在哪里受到攻击。 允许您采取针对性的操作来更改密码，电子邮件，用户名等。

我的建议： (My advice:)

• Do a quick check across all your emails.快速检查所有电子邮件。

• Check if your usual password has been seen in a leak here.

  检查此处是否泄漏了您的常用密码。

• Make a note of the services which have been leaked, especially email services and services with your credit card details.记下已泄露的服务，尤其是电子邮件服务和带有信用卡详细信息的服务。
• Delete your account with these services or prepare to change your email/password on them ASAP.使用这些服务删除您的帐户，或者准备尽快更改它们上的电子邮件/密码。

2.电子邮件 (2. Email)

Your email service is a priority for your privacy. If a hacker has access to your email, he can own your life. My email is connected to my: banking, bills, phone, other email recovery, cloud storage, tools, work, etc.

您的电子邮件服务是您隐私的优先事项。 如果黑客可以访问您的电子邮件，那么他就可以拥有您的生命。 我的电子邮件已连接到我：银行，账单，电话， 其他电子邮件恢复，云存储，工具，工作等。

Keeping your email secure is critical, and keeping the information inside your email secure is critical. If i receive an email to my Gmail, Google scans this email, feeding it into an AI engine and using my personal information to build bots, and models to mimic my human behaviors.

确保电子邮件安全至关重要，而确保电子邮件内部信息安全至关重要。 如果我收到一封发送到Gmail的电子邮件，Google会扫描该电子邮件，将其输入AI引擎，并使用我的个人信息来构建机器人，并进行建模以模仿我的人类行为。

Pick an email service that encrypts your email E2E (End to End) and doesn’t read your emails to serve you ads or to improve their neural networks.

选择一种电子邮件服务，该服务会加密您的电子邮件端到端 (端到端) ，并且不会阅读您的电子邮件来为您投放广告或改善其神经网络。

ProtonMail:

ProtonMail ：

My personal favorite. With opensource apps and encryption it’s the best service I’ve used to date. The UI is clean, simple and works. Their iOS and Android apps are great and easy to use.

我个人的最爱。 借助开源应用程序和加密功能，这是我迄今为止使用的最佳服务。 用户界面干净，简单且有效。 他们的iOS和Android应用程序功能强大且易于使用。

Privacy at the core of the service, they are trusted by Edward Snowden and many more activists. Their free tier offering is limited but very fair. It only lacks personal domains and the ProtonBridge (App to allow you to use local mail client apps like AppleMail). With 500MB of free storage it will easily store several hundred emails. Plans start at 5 Euro per month and can be bundled with other services (ProtonVPN, and ProtonDrive coming soon!).

服务的核心是隐私，爱德华·斯诺登(Edward Snowden)和更多的活动家对此表示信任。 他们的免费套餐有限，但非常公平。 它仅缺少个人域和ProtonBridge(允许您使用AppleMail等本地邮件客户端应用程序的应用程序)。 拥有500MB的免费存储空间，它将轻松存储数百封电子邮件。 计划起价为每月5欧元，并且可以与其他服务捆绑在一起(ProtonVPN和ProtonDrive即将推出！)。

Payment options: Cash, Bitcoin, Paypal, Credit Card.

付款方式：现金，比特币，贝宝，信用卡。

Tutanota:

Tutanota：

My second favorite service. Not one I pay for, but I am always recommending. At 12 Euro per year, it is more affordable than ProtonMail. With all their apps being open source, I have confidence in their service.

我第二喜欢的服务。 我不付钱，但我总是推荐。 每年12欧元，比ProtonMail更实惠。 他们的所有应用都是开源的，我对他们的服务充满信心 。

Unsure:

不确定：

iCloud Mail — Apple have been very forward thinking with their email services, but the recent announcement to not store iCloud Backups unencrypted does not bode well for their policies overall.

iCloud Mail —苹果公司一直非常前瞻性地考虑其电子邮件服务，但是最近宣布不存储未加密的iCloud备份的消息对于他们的整体政策而言并不乐观。

Avoid:

避免：

Google, Microsoft, Yahoo, Zoho, Yandex, Outlook. — Just no.

Google，Microsoft，Yahoo，Zoho，Yandex，Outlook。 - 就是不行。

Advantages of Private Email Services:

私人电子邮件服务的优势：

• Emails are not/can’t be read by the service provider as they are encrypted at rest.

  服务提供商不会/无法读取电子邮件，因为它们在静态时被加密。

• Emails can be sent securely to other private email providers.电子邮件可以安全地发送给其他私人电子邮件提供商。
• Features that are harder to hack.难以破解的功能。

Disadvantages of Private Email Services:

私人电子邮件服务的缺点：

• Free tier is limited (usually limited storage space).免费套餐是有限的(通常是有限的存储空间)。
• Sometimes less user friendly than other providers (Although ProtonMail is very friendly).有时，用户友好性不如其他提供商(尽管ProtonMail非常友好)。

• Sent emails are only encrypted when sent to other private services using PGP Encryption. (e.g Gmail needs a 3rd part add-on to use this.)

  发送的电子邮件只有在使用PGP加密发送到其他私人服务时才被加密 。 (例如，Gmail需要使用第3部分附加组件。)

3.密码管理/ 2FA (3. Password Management/2FA)

密码管理器 (Password Manager)

There is a very clear winner in the password manager category:

在密码管理器类别中，有一个非常明显的赢家：

Bitwarden is open source, free to use, and best of all, you can host it yourself. If you have a RaspberryPi at home, you can easily setup an instance of Bitwarden and have 100% control over your data/passwords.

Bitwarden是开源的，免费使用，最重要的是，您可以自己托管它。 如果您在家中有RaspberryPi ，则可以轻松设置Bitwarden实例，并100％控制您的数据/密码。

Personally I pay the very reasonable $10 per year for the premium version and like to support the developers.

我个人每年为高级版本支付非常合理的10美元 ，并且希望为开发人员提供支持。

Some of the features of Bitwarden:

Bitwarden的一些功能：

• App for everything — Browser, iOS, Android, Linux, Windows, MacOS, Linux, etc.适用于所有应用的应用-浏览器，iOS，Android，Linux，Windows，MacOS，Linux等
• Password Autofill密码自动填充
• Password generators密码生成器
• 2FA built-in内置2FA
• Sync across devices (Unlimited)跨设备同步(无限制)
• Password Sharing & Access Control密码共享和访问控制

REMEMBER: PassWORD is ancient history. PassPHRASE is the correct term. Think of a phrase that is unique and only you know.

谨记 ： 密码是古老的历史。 通过PHRASE是正确的术语。 想一想唯一且只有您知道的短语。

EXAMPLE: 6s&7M#$#G is easier to crack than horseshavefunnyfacesSOMETIMES!!!, which is actually a great password (DONT USE IT).

示例 ：6s＆7M＃$＃G比HorseshavefunnyfacesSOMETIMES !!!容易破解，这实际上是一个很好的密码(不要使用它)。

Unsure:

不确定：

The below companies didn’t make the cut because they are not open-source, and some of their ownership structures are shady — i.e owned by a VC or entity that is questionable. They are very good password managers, and some have interesting features, but they would be secondary to Bitwarden.

下面的公司没有被削减是因为它们不是开源的，并且它们的一些所有权结构是可疑的，即由一个有问题的风投或实体所拥有。 它们是非常好的密码管理器，并且有些具有有趣的功能，但它们仅次于Bitwarden。

— 1Password, Lastpass, Dashlane, RoboForm —

— 1密码，Lastpass，Dashlane，RoboForm —

2FA (2FA)

Two-factor authentication goes hand-in-hand with your passwords. If someone gets access to your vault, 2FA can be additional protection. There are many 2FA apps available. Personally I use Authy. It works across platforms (MacOS, Windows, Android, iOS) and can sync accounts easily — meaning if I lose my phone, my 2FA isn’t lost. It’s a 100% free service provided by Twilio as it directly links with their SMS service. Their apps are super clean, easy to use, and the experience across platforms is 10/10/

两因素身份验证与您的密码紧密结合。 如果有人可以访问您的保管库，则2FA可以提供额外的保护。 有许多2FA应用程序可用。 我个人使用Authy 。 它可以跨平台(MacOS，Windows，Android，iOS)运行，并且可以轻松同步帐户-这意味着，如果我丢失手机，我的2FA也不会丢失。 这是Twilio提供的100％免费服务，因为它直接与他们的SMS服务链接。 他们的应用程序超级干净，易于使用，跨平台的使用经验为10/10 /

But choosing Authy means that I am more vulnerable as my 2FA is being held by Authy’s service — a non-open source service and directly tied to a phone number. I am happy with this but I am considering other options.

但是选择Authy意味着我更容易受到攻击，因为我的2FA被Authy的服务(一种非开源服务并直接绑定到电话号码)持有。 我对此感到满意，但我正在考虑其他选择。

In the future, I may migrate my 2FA to FreeOTP. An open-source multi-platform (iOS/Android) 2FA App. But this is for another day!! (And the app isnt as pretty!)

将来，我可能会将2FA迁移到FreeOTP 。 开源多平台(iOS / Android)2FA应用。 但这是另一天！ (而且该应用程序并不漂亮！)

4. VPN-什么和为什么？ (4. VPN — What and why?)

Tunneling your data through an encrypted service to anonymize and protect your data is easy now. Giving you freedom from hackers on your network or your ISP.

现在，通过加密服务来隧道化数据以匿名化和保护您的数据非常容易。 使您免受网络或ISP上的黑客的攻击。

There is a very well recognized resource for VPN comparison. ThatOnePrivacySite takes all the work out of comparing services across multiple categories. With my personal preference being for:

有一个非常公认的VPN比较资源。 ThatOnePrivacySite消除了比较多个类别服务的所有工作。 我个人的喜好是：

• ExpressVPN — Great speeds, great apps, lots of servers/location, TrustedServer Technology, no logs, BVI Entity, 10/10 support staff, and lots more.

  ExpressVPN —速度快，应用程序好，服务器/位置很多， TrustedServer技术，没有日志，BVI实体，10/10支持人员等等。

• ProtonVPN — Trusted company, great apps, Secure Core Routing, no logs, Located in privacy focused country, and lots more.

  ProtonVPN —受信任的公司，出色的应用程序， 安全核心路由，无日志，位于注重隐私的国家/地区，等等。

• Private Internet Access (PIA) — Proven track record to defend users legally, lots of servers/locations, great speeds, good for streaming, great apps, no logs, 10/10 support staff, best priced, and lots more.

  专用Internet访问(PIA) -经过实践检验的记录，可以合法地保护用户，许多服务器/位置，速度快，适用于流媒体，功能强大的应用程序，无日志，10/10支持人员，价格最优惠等。

荣誉奖— NextDNS (Honorable Mention — NextDNS)

I’ve written about NextDNS before, and it’s a service I use everywhere. Having installed it on my family’s phones to block ads and tracking. It doesn’t change/encrypt your traffic, but instead encrypts and blocks tracking requests made by your device.

我之前已经写过有关NextDNS的文章，并且它是我在各处使用的一项服务。 将其安装在我家人的手机上以阻止广告和跟踪。 它不会更改/加密您的流量，而是加密和阻止设备发出的跟踪请求。

5.云存储 (5. Cloud Storage)

云存储即服务 (Cloud Storage as a Service)

There is a balance when it comes to Cloud Storage. Convenience, features, and price. If you want storage as a service, I recommend Mega.nz.

在云存储方面有一个平衡点。 便利，功能和价格。 如果您想将存储作为服务，建议您使用Mega.nz。

I have been a customer of Mega since they first opened in 2013. The ervice was build around E2E encryption and they do not lie. They have even open sourced several of their clients.

自从他们于2013年首次开业以来，我一直是Mega的客户。服务是围绕E2E加密构建的，它们不会说谎。 他们甚至开源了几个客户 。

Although you are giving up control over your data and encryption to a third party (with some questionable history) — they seem to be legit, and their support is 10/10.

尽管您将数据和加密的控制权交给了第三方(有一些可疑的历史记录)，但它们似乎是合法的，并且他们的支持是10/10。

数据加密-任何云 (Data Encryption — Any Cloud)

Taking total control of your encryption is not as hard as it used to be. I have done a comparison of several open-source file encryption platforms.

全面控制加密并不像以前那样困难。 我已经比较了几种开源文件加密平台。

Cryptomator is what I recommend to everyone - for ease of use, multi-platform apps, and reliability, it just works. It also has direct integration with Dropbox and Google Drive which is nice.

我向所有人推荐Cryptomator-为了易于使用，多平台应用程序和可靠性，它确实有效。 它还与Dropbox和Google云端硬盘直接集成，非常好。

Features/High Points:

功能/优点：

• Multi platform apps (iOS, Windows, Android, Linux)多平台应用程序(iOS，Windows，Android，Linux)
• Easy to use — Simple GUI and apps with basic features易于使用-简单的GUI和具有基本功能的应用程序

• Able to work with all major cloud storage systems (Google Drive/Dropbox/OneDrive/Box/Etc)

  能够与所有主要的云存储系统(Google Drive / Dropbox / OneDrive / Box / Etc)一起使用

• Free — open source & actively maintained免费-开源并积极维护

6.消息传递 (6. Messaging)

Recent news about Jeff Bezos being hacked by a foreign intelligence service, has shed light on how easy it is to use a messaging service to compromise the data on a phone. The report detailed, it only took 1 malicious video file to gain access to Bezos’ phone.

有关杰夫·贝索斯(Jeff Bezos)被外国情报服务机构黑客入侵的最新消息，揭示了使用消息传递服务来破坏电话中数据的难易程度。 该报告详细介绍，仅用1个恶意视频文件即可访问Bezos的电话。

With WhatsApp being the standard for communication globally, we are heavily reliant on Facebook’s use of encryption in their communication. For this reason, I am (trying) to move my messaging to other apps.

随着WhatsApp成为全球通信的标准，我们在很大程度上依赖Facebook在其通信中使用加密。 因此，我正在(尝试)将消息传递到其他应用程序。

Signal, an open source instant communication platform run by a non-profit, and backed by several leaders in the privacy space. With messaging, calling, and media sharing capabilities, it has all the features of WhatsApp with the bonus of having open source audited encryption standards in place. With multi-platform apps.

Signal是一个非营利组织运营的开源即时通信平台，并得到了隐私领域几位领导者的支持。 具有消息传递，呼叫和媒体共享功能，它具有WhatsApp的所有功能，并且具有适当的开源审核的加密标准。 使用多平台应用程序。

Notable Platforms:

著名平台：

WhatsApp is a global standard in instant messaging. It won’t be going away, but it should not be 100% trusted. With recent scandals, I am hoping Facebook will begin to work on WhatsApp to build trust again with it’s users.

WhatsApp是即时通讯的全球标准。 它不会消失，但不应100％可信。 面对最近的丑闻，我希望Facebook将开始在WhatsApp上开展工作，以再次与其用户建立信任。

Telegram, another open source platform that promotes encryption, user privacy, with cool features like message self-destruction.

Telegram是另一个开放源代码平台 ，该平台使用诸如消息自毁之类的很酷的功能来促进加密，用户隐私。

7.浏览器 (7. Browser)

Chrome & Google cannot be trusted with our privacy and our personal data. Google Chome although being the most widespread browsers available, across both mobile and desktop, is only one of many great browsers.

我们的隐私权和个人数据不值得信赖Chrome和Google。 Google Chome虽然是移动和台式机上使用最广泛的浏览器，但它只是众多出色浏览器之一。

Firefox, one of the top most popular browsers, puts users at the core of their non-profit business. With highly customizable privacy features and built in anti-fingerprinting and ad-blockers, it is my personal choice when combined with several key plugins: HTTPS Everywhere, Decentraleyes, uBlock Origin, most importantly Firefox Containers (awesome plugin — just try it).

Firefox是最受欢迎的浏览器之一，它使用户成为其非营利业务的核心。 凭借高度可定制的隐私功能以及内置的防指纹和广告阻止程序，与几个关键插件结合使用时，这是我个人的选择： HTTPS Everywhere， Decentraleyes， uBlock Origin ，最重要的是Firefox Containers (很棒的插件，请尝试一下)。

Brave, a new to the scene browser with many cool features built in. Started by ex-Firefox employees, it makes up for some of the features Firefox lacks. Using it’s own crypto-currency to give back to creators, as well as built in ad-blocker, cookie blocker, and anti-fingerprinting features.

Brave ，它是现场浏览器的新功能，内置许多很酷的功能。它由前Firefox员工创立，弥补了Firefox缺少的一些功能。 使用它自己的加密货币还给创建者，以及内置的广告拦截器，cookie拦截器和防指纹功能。

No privacy focused list would be complete without Tor. Tor is free and open-source software for enabling anonymous browsing online. By encrypting and layering your traffic through multiple nodes globally, it is the most secure way to browse online. It’s a bit advanced to explain, but if you are in a country with questionable surveillance policies, check it out.

没有Tor的话，任何以隐私为重点的列表都是不完整的 。 Tor是免费的开放源代码软件，用于启用在线匿名浏览。 通过全局加密和分层通过多个节点的流量，这是最安全的在线浏览方式。 进行解释有点先进，但是如果您所在的国家/地区的监控政策存在问题，请进行检查。

8.金钱 (8. Money)

When it comes to privacy, there are several ways we can keep our privacy. But convenience is also something to consider. In my country, I can buy milk with Monero (yet).

当涉及到隐私时，我们可以通过多种方式保持隐私。 但是便利也是要考虑的事情。 在我的国家，我可以和Monero一起购买牛奶。

现金 (Cash)

The reality is, money is king.

现实是，金钱为王。

Paying with cash, avoids any tracking. Nobody but you and the cashier knows what you have bought (assuming you don’t use a loyalty card).

用现金付款，避免任何跟踪。 除了您和收银员外，没人知道您购买了什么(假设您不使用会员卡)。

Credit cards, loyalty cards, Visa/MasterCard, etc all keep track of your purchase history. Visa & MasterCard are notorious for selling on customer purchase history to data brokers who in turn sell onto companies to be able to target customers directly based on their previous purchases.

信用卡，会员卡，Visa /万事达卡等都记录您的购买历史。 Visa和MasterCard因将客户购买历史记录出售给数据经纪人而臭名昭著，而数据经纪人又向公司出售股票，从而能够根据客户先前的购买直接定位客户。
