Question

Im not very tech savvy but i did my best to go through my accts and my google chrome that is associated with my google/gmail acct and also linked to my phone and for the most part ive gotten it mostly fixed.

with the one of the pages on googles settings i stumbled across when going thru my settings, i was trying to read something about the server and software and that sort of thing.... it was actually cryptic as fuck with all the tech language and other shit that just made me go wtf...so that was weird.

But aside from that i feel like every time something updates, my settings will most likely go back to what they were and I wouldn't be aware...what do i do check it every day?

You could use VPN + Tor

Use duckduckgo. Google makes me feel extremely repulsed. Especially when I had to turn off microphone permission for it manually in android. Do not use a chinese company's phone. I wish I had bought some other smartphone before I knew better.
I think I will also stop using duckduckgo once it grows too big.
I am thinking of using tor in the future but then again once its used by many people, this option will also have to be discarded.
Curious to see what other ss advise since its a very important matter and concerns the safety of all of us.

Nope. You do use either Tor or a VPN. Apparently using a combination of both can lead to de-anonymization of the user, especially when "free" VPNs are involved. Usually using Tor only is way safer.

I once did read if you use VPN -> Tor ->other VPN this should be the safest way (estimated good vpns).

Nobody should be able to know your location or which stuff you did search.

Would you still advise to only use Tor?

Actually it is better to use it when more people use to vanish into the mass.

I think otherwise but I do not mean to discard your opinion either. If many people start using the same popular service , the jews would try to put more resources and effort on surveillance. They would want to know what each individual people are doing for their peace of mind.
Same goes for things which isn't used my many people or only used by a minority. They would think 'what exactly do you not want us to know to use a remote browser like duckduckgo? , tor? etc' I read somewhere that there are kikes(don't know what a kike means) behind duckduckgo too. I do not know much about tech. These opinions are only based on my intuition and might be true or false. My point is that a single individual is fucked in front of a big organisation striving to gain control and power.
Relying on the gods protection is what assures me. However, I will do what I can to not burden them.

Yes!
If you connect to Tor without a VPN, your ISP can see you are connected to the Tor network, but cannot see what you are doing. If you are connected to Tor with a VPN, your ISP sees you are connected to a VPN, but your VPN provider sees you're connected to Tor. You are simply relying on the trust to your VPN provider.
Now, lots of people connect to Tor directly (w/o VPN), so ISPs see a lot of people connected to the network at the same time, without any clue on what these people are doing actually. Tor users connected to a VPN are a lot less, it's easier to de-anonymize you. Many VPN state they keep no log, but can track you anyway.

Also note that VPN>Tor>VPN is very very slow (as slow as 2mbit/s). You should see Tor as a very secure VPN.

Actually, on r/TOR you can see plenty of people asking about VPN safety and if it's safer to use Tor in combination to a VPN, the usual response is to not use both. You can find details on the Tor FAQ

My computer got hacked a few months ago. My program I was using ArcGis for school to make geological maps crashed and fucked up my whole map and data on it..then what happened next was I kept getting windows pop up that looked like normal windows from the computer system, but it was trying to trick me into giving my password for windows account and even put my thumbprint on my touch screen and I kept clicking x on it because obviously at this point something weird was going on. It took me to microsoft.com every time I tried to use the web. I also was looking thru my files to find my ARC project saved anywhere before it got fucked up and noticed a bunch of weird files downloaded... Really weird shit was on there files and files of junk and some were audio recordings of I don't even know what. Then the next thing it did was took my ARC document and held it saying I needed to give info (passwords etc) or else I wouldnt get my document back that I really needed (it's like it was intelligent to some extent so not just a virus since it knew I needed that doc. The very last thing it did was a huge window popping up basically indicating my ownership rights over my computer were going to be taken away. I called geek squad and got it all fixed after hours of waiting over night. I also feel like they were able to listen in on my mic and hear what I was saying and how I was reacting during the while thing. I noticed a weird thing on my Bluetooth looked like something connected to my computer. Very weird. Had to redo my whole project never could recover it :/ luckily computer was fine. But I don't know why anyone would do this. Very bizarre. I was researching cyber attacks and things like that but I'm not really sure. The best buy guy said nothing was even hacked or malware or nothing he made me seem crazy and that nothing was wrong that he could tell other than my RAM was super high . So what I'm just crazy? Lol no

You had a RAT in your computer. RAT stands for remote access trojan. Basically the person on the other end has access to all of your computer, even while you use it.

Always keep backups for important projects. You could have very well said fuck u to him and format c: and basically continue with your project as if nothing had happened.
