The basic idea is to identify what you’re trying to protect, what threats exist or may exist, and outline possible protections against those threats, as well as the tradeoffs of those protections. So for example, someone who doesn’t do any praxis and browses Hexbear all day (not trying to call anyone out) doesn’t need to be running Edward Snowden levels of opsec and privacy software, but they should almost certainly get a cheap VPN and be regularly cycling accounts.
