Our conversation with Joe Kissell about the 5th edition of his Take Control of Your Online Privacy continues with a focus on smart devices and the data they are collecting. Joe advises against oversharing on social media and implementing steps like using alternative search engines, email, and VPNs to bolster privacy, as well as adjustments to device settings and opting for privacy-focused services.
