Basic Self Online Protection:
1. Apply full disk encryption to your host OS
2. Make an encrypted volume with VeraCrypt
3. Inside the encrypted volume install Whonix
4. Use a WIFI connection that isn't your own (Cantenna, Aircrack, & Reaver). If at home then use Ethernet over WIFI
5. Communicate via safe and encrypted means. I prefer jabber/xmpp with OMEMO encryption over anything else however if on forums then use PGP
Using Whonix as your base and then connecting to infrastructure such as RDP's/VPS is near fail-safe on the side of IP security.
Having your whonix VM installed inside of an encrypted volume means that all your VM metadata is all contained within the encrypted volume and having it inside of the volume means that once you dismount your VM you can keep your laptop/PC open and do other things and can worry less if/when you get raided because your criminal shit is secure. Follow common sense! Use strong passwords and don't recycle blah blah blah.
