    • Don’t post photos of yourself online. You never know what someone could do with them!

    • Don’t feed the trolls! They’re looking to get a reaction out of you, so it’s best to give them blue horns.

    • Don’t say what city/town etc you live in, country is enough in most contexts!

    • Disable geolocation wherever possible

    • Don’t save passwords for your accounts to your computer! Write them down in a diary.

      For the last one a password manager like Keepass or Bitwarden is generally a better option as it’s much safer.
