Lesson 3 - Internet Presence
Keeping your head low in the internet is a good idea. Anything you put up will never be deleted, companies spy on you, it becomes your weakness, and you will regret it.
You should never post anything online, delete your social media, remove your full name from any username/email, don't sign up for random stuff, do not download anything that you don't trust.
- Delete/Minimise social media
Lesson 4 - Things to avoid
You should avoid various things, that if you interact with, will get you into further trouble
