Here is a book that will show you just all the little ways this aggregate data can drive your life without your knowledge OR consent. You're sounding mighty ignorant on the subject so brush up, buttercup.

An easy read is Kevin Mitnicks "The art of Invisibility". It goes into some shallow concepts of privacy and what you can do to stay private in an ever snooping world.

I haven't read it yet, but Kevin Mitnick has just published a new book The Art of Invisibility: The World's Most Famous Hacker Teaches You How to Be Safe in the Age of Big Brother and Big Data. I haven't bought this one yet only because I want my son to get it for Christmas on our Kindle account, not earlier...

Yes and no. Its better in some ways in terms of security or privacy in terms of the sensible defaults you get, but its ultimately up to you to keep things secure and private. There are no magic bullet solutions, and you should be careful to avoid the cargo cult mentality.

If you want to take your privacy seriously, I would highly recommend that in addition to starting your Linux journey, please pick up a book titled The Art of Invisibility by Kevin Mitnick. He is a legendary hacker, but wrote this book for a wide audience. It does a great job of covering the most important issues, while remaining easy to understand. I also recommend his other books that tell stories about hacking and social engineering.
