How much do I value my private information and what steps do I take to protect it?

I place a high emphasis on my privacy. I'm being as cautious as I can with what I share. I
always have a tendency to question the purpose of requests for too much information. I verify
the security of websites before entering them. I can tell a website is secure if its URL begins
with "https". To keep my computer's data secure, I also install some anti-virus software. In terms
of social media usage, I also prefer not to reveal too much. I'm in the habit of keeping my entire
name, address, phone number, and email private. Also, I avoid using any public wifi networks
because some hackers utilize them to access users' devices. Even when an email is from
someone I know, I do not readily click on links in emails. To find any discrepancies, I first verify
the sender's email address and each piece of material. I also make very secure passwords for
my government and social media accounts. It always has a mix of uppercase and lower case
letters, numbers, and special characters. In that way, it would be difficult for anybody who tried
to acquire access to guess or even memorize it.
