Hello All

After recently trying to battle/block an explosion of email and phone spam  – I started researching hardening my installs of macOS/iOS and building up stronger privacy filters. Concurrently I have been cutting down distractions, namely many on my phone with great results. I found several great resources worthy of sharing, along success with installing Nord VPN and LittleSnitch. I am sure much of this will be old hat for many, though some wonderful security nuggets may be useful to some.
