Say for example you visit my house and yet there is no mobile reception but I have WiFi.
Do you connect to it and use Tor etc? If so, what do you use in order to stay anonymous and have privacy when the network is not configured to your liking?

It's (predominantly) what you do with the connection that's of concern.

Connect to It with your PC that's preconfigured with all privacy and anonymity settings In place.

Also would you say I have already compromised myself by using this forum without proper steps taken from the beginning?

In terms of this board per se, you're fine.

Would you consider it safe to use a private browser such as Tor when accessing confidential information/social media/anything that could potentially leak your identity?
I know that nodes could potentially be a problem with logins due to the fact that anyone could potentially stumble across the same node that was used whilst you were accessing such info.

What steps would you put in place regarding the risk.

Really looking forward to the new Australian version of eternal blue being leaked now

As stated In one of my previous posts:

14 eyes countries restricted from the exit node.
Bridges applied to the entry/guard node (changing every day or so).
Running both Tor over VPN (triple-layer encryption) & VPN over Tor.
Overall uniqueness operating on a 1:20 ratio.

Time to move back on-topic.

Well after AU abandonned Julian Assange, I wouldn't expect less. And with the five-eyes alliance, this is to be expected in my book and will only grow as the US has an agenda to become the worlds only super power. This means all other nations will either be a friend or foe. As if this matters really because US pays China to spy on US citizens already and that system is now counter spread across the globe, meaning, everyone is spying on everyone and they all trade that intel. Thing is, hardly any murders are being PREVENTED, and as for other crimes, well what would you expect?

These gov are preparing for a war, one that which the people who want to be free vs the land of the law who seeks to incriminate or imprison the free.

I'm not sure that I'm well versed in such things, but it's still worth waiting for a specialist's answer. But I began to notice that lately I have generally become very serious about security. But not only to the security of the network, but also to the security of my personal and, first of all, my home. Have you ever thought about the fact that any fire or hacking about which you see information on TV or newspaper can happen to you at some point? That's why I installed Ajax at home so that I can be calm for the safety of my home. Now it's more guaranteed.

Really looking forward to the new Australian

Ever since they introduced the Department of Home Affairs I've been awfully worried for rights in Australia. Merging immigration/refugees, border control, national security, law enforcement, counter-terrorism, cyber security, crisis management, citizenship, transport security and multicultural all into one mega-department was a horrible idea prone to abuse by government. Worst of all with the state as things are politically and socially in the country few knew and even fewer cared.
