What about mobile privacy? which OS? which Phone? which app? the author forgot there is even more privacy info we could lose via mobile with its built in sensors and features.
CyanogenMod without Google apps (gapps) is good enough (for normal life, not a Snowden-style situation, obviously). microG is a great open source replacement for gapps.
If you do want Google apps, at least turn off all the creepy features like Google Now, location history, etc.
