How to prepare for the Yarovaya law?

Question

Burglary protection

It is very likely that the Yarovaya law will still be carried out .
Question: how to prepare for it from the point of view of a simple user? I am a mere mortal, I don’t have any terrible secrets, but I don’t want my personal documents, family photos, financial information to be leaked from the data center where the intercepted traffic will be collected.
I use Dropbox (as a backup and a means of synchronizing files between computers), Google Docs, use Internet banks, electronic money and other financial services. I use different passwords everywhere and store them in encrypted form.
What to fear and what measures to take?
Do I understand correctly that there is nothing to be afraid of intercepting the traffic of Dropbox, Google Docs and other foreign services working on https?

Answer 1

1. Buy an inexpensive VPS (from $15/year, you can even get cheaper) and set up a personal VPN on it. There are plenty of tutorials on the web on how to do this. Just do not say that you do not have money for this, you do not use the Internet for free. Just accept it as a small extra internet charge for your restful sleep.
   
2. Working through a VPN (required), get yourself a new mailbox on a foreign server from a company that does not have any business and any commercial interests in the Russian Federation. Let it be not a major giant of the industry, but a modest company, little known in the Russian Federation. The main thing is the presence of SSL in the web interface and in IMAP, otherwise mail is mail, it just works, and that's enough.
   
3. When working through a VPN, get yourself a new vk facebook and / or google account (if you are unable to completely abandon the use of social networks). When registering, indicate the place of residence away from the Russian Federation. Keep in mind that all the giants of the industry that have big business in the Russian Federation fully cooperate with the GB, but the accounts of non-residents registered and visited from foreign IPs will not be merged by default (but they will be merged instantly at the first request). So forget about any privates in social networks, conduct all communication as if your whole block and all those to whom you would least like to show it read it all. For private communication, use only secure mail (point 2) and secure chats on telegramjabber on foreign servers. All this applies only to those who cannot completely stop with a harmful addiction to social networks. Obviously, the safest (and healthiest) option is to completely abandon social programs.
   
4. Do not throw addresses and links to new clean ones into old mailboxes and social accounts, do not indicate new addresses in any outboxes and try not to get them into inboxes. Remember that in any social network and any mail web interface (cooperating), the "delete" button hides what is being deleted only from yourself and nothing more.
   
5. (Most annoying point) Forget about vk, mail.ru and Russian gmail and facebook. - AS? - So! I understand that it is not easy that they have long become a part of your life. But it will have to be done! Talk to yourself, ask yourself what is more important to you: your personal safety, peace of mind and sound sleep, or old habits that you are entangled in and that do not want to let you go? Keep in mind that by continuing to use local social networks (and cooperating foreign ones), you continue to generate tons of compromising evidence every day, which can turn against you at the most unexpected moment in the most unpleasant way. Being active in your old accounts, you do not let them "rotten" and do not even give good companies a formal reason to demolish them in half a year, after the expiration of the storage period allotted by law (as you know,
   

Answer 2

Buy stew, soap, matches and kerosene only in foreign countries. Dig yourself a dugout there. If possible, swipe the Internet there with these VPNs of yours.

Paranoid people should not use a computer, a telephone for a long time ... For example, all telephone conversations have been written since the 90s ...

Answer 4

You think after reading the next news, filter the informational noise.
According to the subject - RBC, as usual, whips up the atmosphere. The article does not indicate ANYWHERE (except for the opinion of a journalist) that the production of hard drives is precisely to comply with the designated package. In addition, it is explicitly stated that the disks will be for servers. In addition, the contracted aquarius has never been seen in the assembly of solutions such as SORM. And, surprisingly, SSDs are currently not (and will not be) used in the near future as systems where data archives are stored. I would say they would rather use tape than ssd.

Answer 6

Come up with an original encryption algorithm and that’s it, don’t give the keys to anyone and send all the fuck

Answer 7

As far as I understand, there are no means to counteract and cannot be . Intercepted traffic at the level of providers, i.e. all domestic. For encrypted traffic, VPNs and other plans to hand out fines. Accordingly, either you are encrypted and attract the unhealthy attention of the authorities, or you play by the rules.
The restriction is introduced exactly where the only bottlenecks of the Runet are located, and this cannot be bypassed.
The only countermeasure may be to connect to the Internet bypassing the provider. For example, via Google satellite. But most likely, in our lifetime, they will never appear.
