Do you really mean that, if I may ask? When you're on Wilders, for example, you're not anonymous -- you're MrGump. Although you may participate...
Re: FURTHER READING And then there's the purported NSA connection ;)
I don't know of any VPN providers that have snitched. It's well known that Hushmail provided investigators with email of customers who were...
XeroBank makes such claims. Although I don't have the means to verify what they claim, I haven't seen any contrary evidence. Some do complain...
Not keeping logs is good. Designs that prevent useful logs from being kept are better. Operating in an uncooperative jurisdiction is good (as...
I was referring to the time zone, not the hardware clock. IME, single boot Ubuntu installations always set the hardware clock to UTC. I don't...
GA is one of the scripts that I NEVER let run (NoScript).
silence Anyway, thanks for the post. Aaron and crew didn't have a clue who they were attacking, methinks. I don't either, of course. And I...
@katio Thanks for the clarification. My Windows experience is largely limited to XP, and I have a lot to learn re Linux. Also, I'm...
Upon reflection, and some googling, I get that using UTC doesn't work for Windows, and I apologize for missing that. In Ubuntu, using UTC instead...
That makes sense. Tor+VPN would arguably be better only if one could access the VPN via Tor, because in that case only encrypted VPN packets...
That's a loaded question. Given the circumstances, and clues that I've found here and there about consultants who helped develop the service,...
My primary concern re browser fingerprinting is the possibility of linking my true and pseudonymous identities. I address that, and other such...
I knew that someone was going to say something like that ;) Yes, of course, your VPN provider could be just as vulnerable as your ISP, or even...
AFAIK, the strongest public anonymity test is still Metasploit's <decloak.net>. For checking DNS leakage, you can use <www.grc.com/dns>. It'll...
I just set all machines used for privacy/anonymity stuff to UTC. The downside is that it's easy to lose track of what time it is locally ;)
No. As DasFox noted, vyprvpn uses PPTP, and PPTP isn't very secure. You want at least an Open VPN based service. No, it doesn't, if (as I...
Even after using XeroBank for two years, reading everything that I can find about it, and hanging around online, I still don't know just what it...
@katio Thanks. I stopped logging into Google long ago, so my experience is limited. Also, I tend to assume that they will do whatever I can...
Once you log into Google, it can use non-IP information to locate you -- such as cookies, wifi router MAC address and/or login history that it...
Well, as Steve notes, we talked with our neighbors and friends. We had meetings and rallies, and spread the word via posters that we plastered...
Thanks, that's a great resource.
"The Next Net" thread on gold-silver-crypto@rayservers.com might be of interest.
You could use the Ixquick Proxy via https://eu.startingpage.com, but it doesn't allow Javascript. You'll look like every other user from the...
No, that's not how I meant it. Unless I've missed something, Steve hasn't even claimed that the Safehouse browser will protect against...
