In short: aim to own everything (this means open source everything). Do not depend on anything and anyone because stuff like licenses and subscriptions or your online accounts can be terminated and taken away at any moment for no reason "at our discretion". Do not rent stuff - own it. Big corpos are horrible landlords.

If something does not fulfill ALL your demands then avoid it. If it is physically possible that they could do something malicious then expect it sooner or later.

Linux and full open source stuffz would be a good start. If you need anything - ask and I will try to respond as good as I can. All questions are good. I can be your nanny if you wish to be free.

I could attempt to finish everything I had listed but it takes so much time...
