Of course, nothing can prevent the DOJ from getting your data, but for the most part, as a regular person, a VPN and decent browser provides a great deal of peace of mind from your data being stolen by bad actors. Of course good antivirus is required as well.

Malwarebytes is good...there are other AV solutions, but that is a decent one.
