Before the 25th May 2018 (when the GDPR became enforceable) my computer technician advised me on how to tackle the issue; since then, no change whatsoever…

Security Practices, no. Security tools, measures and infrastructure, yes.

My paranoia is bad enough already.

But I do have an updated antivirus and carry out all the other compulsive-repetitive actions

I bought a super-duper bicycle lock for a whopping 120 EUR that supposedly is able to withstand a bolt cutter (at least that's what the salesperson said).

no, because the practices I upheld for the past 10 years are good enough, i.e., I don't have problems with viruses, phishing, etc. I don't install useless apps ever, I don't read emails or click on links or open attachments in emails unless I'm absolutely sure who they came from, I do not visit "suspicious" sites, and other measures maturity allows us.
