Good practices for security anonimity

[npapnet]

DISCLAIMER: This is not a per se issue for developers, it is more an every day, casual user concern.

Following the well received presentation for TOR, I realised that I may not be doing even the basics to protect myself from online threats (identity theft, security, privacy etc). I also realised that there is a lot of experience in the speakers and a lot experience/good practices that can be shared.

So I would like to see a session (or half a session) for every day security practices both as a developer and as an end user. That may include information on:

• machine configuration (e.g. blocking ports)
• browser extensions
• online platforms
• blogs

One final point, what I have in mind is either one time configuration, or tools which do not -greatly- diminish the online experience. From that perspective, I would consider extreme and not practical, measures such as disabling by default Javascript (which I am sure will be the first thing the most security conscious people would suggest).
