Especially if you are LGBTQ, furry, have unconventional sexual tendencies (CNC, BDSM, FinDom, etc) or are a member of a religious or racial minority group.</p> <p>The Internet was not designed with safety or security in mind. In its ARPANET beginnings, many systems didn&rsquo;t even have passwords because only privileged users were supposed to access them. As such, privacy and security features are often little more than layers added on top of aging protocols, like HTTPS is just SSL applied on top of HTTP.</p>
