OK One or two companies own all the DNS stuff, and have submitted themselves to FBI which does not spare human flesh to bother with the likes of us, it uses AI
(so why flash-mob crimes, why bombings?)
Beeeeeecause, they don't know what to look for (but I'm just ranting in my teeny intro about 

Windows Settings 

(because I forget stuff)

And what do I forget?

Really evil people use SMB which you don't care about, but disable "workstation" anyway, the way you'd lock your cardboard front-door.

Disable "server", I thought that would be self-explanatory (it serves stuff)

Disable "Sysmain," a little guy standing off to the side, recording what you do.

And two or three others I forgot or am unaware of.

If everyone uses "Encrypted DNS" 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8, it makes the job easier for FBI, but Todd the hacker might have a teeeeeensy bit more trouble.
Hopefully he's fat and lazy and won't bother.

You've got nothing to hide, besides stalking your ex-wife, staring at random porn that reminds you of her, 
and weird food-fetish sites (worms, etc)

Yawnable crap that prolly isn't true anyway:

Disable IPV6 (unless you need it, most don't)

("join us, join us, all are welcome")

"Join us"

The teeny apps you download will nullify anything I just said and,

those pictures blocking a googled site you want to read , are like saying

 "welcome, come in!"

 to a vampire, but that's a way different paranoid thing.

My diabetes app, the one who uploads to a server,

My Games app (generally)

and my Solitaire app (specifically)

*could* be controlled to do other stuff besides upload numbers and times.

A firewall's granularity is non-existent, you either invite apps in or you don't.

In other words, there must be an arcane, esoteric way to block scans and uploads from partitions (other than your C: drive) but I am unaware of them. 

     "Your privacy is your own" (bullshit, lady with hypno-eyes)

and you should be able to completely block your data drive from uploads and scans, even if you've got nothing to hide (password file, boss's résumé, client-list)

Besides scrambling the damned drive, which, once you open it to read, is accessible anyway, so, stupid solution.

You COULD store stuff on some "secure" cloud but that's like taking off all your clothes because someone said you're protected magically.
