Yeah, if I could go back and handle my web presence all over again I'd do things much more cautiously.

I'd be a lot more careful about who I gave my information to, what cookies I accepted, and what services I used and didn't use. And I'd also use a VPN a lot more often.

The Internet has definitely ended up being a mixed bag. It has a lot of positive benefits and has been really good in some ways, but it's also got a lot of negatives and has been really bad in a lot of ways as well.
