And I suppose you could go VOIP for calls but now you're really getting paranoid Unless your CIA or in a sensitive environment where you're being monitored, its probably not worth it Always use VPN though

So Lighthouse, another question for you. Where do I find an old IBM Thinkpad and which site do I use to download Linux? And where do I get win10 (as opposed to 365 these days)? Believe or not, I actually had one but that puppy ended up with my ex. To be fair, it was his laptop not mine :)

If you like people: Facebook market place or Craigslist If you don't like people: eBay PC repair shop also a good bet
