Privacy & Freedom in the Information Age www.reddit.com

So I was trying to look for a game online (Nikke: Goddess of Victory) and accidentally clicked on a fake sponsored post (all my fault for not paying attention) and it tried to download something on my computer after clicking it. Luckily it brought up the pop up asking where to download it so it didn't download but now I'm spooked if it there are other things I have to worry about.
