If peace of mind is the only reason you’re buying a console just buy another PC. If you current PC is already pretty beefy you can buy a cheaper “work” PC. Move all your personal information there, wipe your gaming PC and use it exclusively for gaming. It’ll effectively be as “safe” as a console except you still get all the benefits of having PC.
Fair that… but not being able to use the good computer for actual computing (like image editing, video processing, compression, etcetera) doesn’t feel right. What I’m doing, of course, is to just stop gaming online altogether.
