If your IPS and the local authorities will not do anything if you download, upload and publish anything, what is the bare minimum of security measures you can do? Context: I live in Southamericas, here we have worse thing to deal with.

    I’d say say at least use a VPN. Most of the suggested security practices are easy enough there’s really no reason not to…

      Why would you use a VPN? What’s the advantage, aside from not letting my ISP know what I’m doing?

        Not just ISPs, the end user and other peers in the case of torrenting also will not know who or where you are.

        Getting to regions blocked content is a bonus that most VPN services will provide.
