You can change the permissions for home directories so that users cannot
see each others; you can also change the permissions for /root so that
it is invisible to non-root users (chmod 700 ...)

Also, check /etc/adduser.conf to change the default permissions that new
homes are created with.

However, I'd strongly advise against trying to restrict access to /etc -
this will break lots of things!

What are you actually trying to achieve?  Or, to take another view, what
exactly are you trying to prevent and why?
