The first thing people can do is, well, care enough about their privacy. A common argument is "I have nothing to hide," but that doesn't really make sense. Privacy isn't about having things to hide.

I know there are people on FFR who frequently use Microsoft products, whether that's in the form of an OS, free email service, etc. I also know that there are people on FFR who care about their privacy enough to slowly (or quickly) make moves to more anonymous services. As an example, I'm moving away from GMail and Hotmail to an anonymous email service.

Not to mention third parties and the concept of findability.
