In the light of the CIA exploits (Vault 7) which potentially affect every OS in the world, What steps can one take to protect his/her personal data and privacy?

Don't connect to the internet

rgd1101 is right!

However, if you go back and read any number of online magazines, technical and otherwise, you will find many articles that pretty much show that those "exploits" have been discussed multiple times in one way or another.

Just because someone looks, for example, for ways to avoid a house fire does not mean that they intend to burn down a house.

My suggestion is to take a real close look, objectively and critically, at how news is being reported. Watch the word play and how images are presented.

Yes stay off of the internet and hope that no one gets into your mailbox.
