>I generally do not connect to web sites from my own machine, aside from a few sites I have some special relationship with. I usually fetch web pages from other sites by sending mail to a program (see git.savannah.gnu.org/git/womb/hacks.git) that fetches them, much like wget, and then mails them back to me. Then I look at them using a web browser, unless it is easy to see the text in the HTML page directly. I usually try lynx first, then a graphical browser if the page needs it (using konqueror, which won't fetch from other sites in such a situation).
>I occasionally also browse unrelated sites using IceCat via Tor. Except for rare cases, I do not identify myself to them. I think that is enough to prevent my browsing from being connected with me. IceCat blocks tracking tags and most fingerprinting methods.
>If TOR is not safe anymore, how else can I protect myself from goverments and other spies? By not using the internet. Nothing else is as safe.
Other than that, using a different machine and open wlan. get a cheap secondhand laptop and find anywhere with free wlan access. For example, many cafes offer free wlan to anybody buying a drink. Just keep any shit you want to hide on a seperate computer that you never connect to your own network or any network that could identify you. >If TOR is not safe anymore TOR isn't for anonymity (they even tell you that the first time you start tor) as much as for accessing locally blocked websites, and at that, it works just fine.

>offline computer checked!
>secondhand laptop paid with cash checked!
>use public wifi checked!
I think that what is missing is this:
1) Even in a public WiFi spot, use a free VPN provider (Windscribe) so that the owner of the hotspot cannot see what you are doing
2) NEVER EVER raw navigate the Internet without using a VPN
3) Be as quick as possible. Have a schedule of the stuff you are going to upload and download
what else should I add?

I have never seen your dick.
I do not want to see your dick either.
Sold our souls for cinnamon rolls. No Mr. French Pastry, I have no desire to eat you.
True Cuckadian, FBI and CIA was always in the TOR group.

I doubt peeing on your handler's leg would redpill them maybe kick you around but not really.

It's all very simple user. Stop breaking the law. If you stop stealing copyrighted material and aren't some scumbag pedo you really don't need TOR. So in reality TOR if for commie fucks who don't believe in property rights and chomos . Fuck tor and fuck the degenerate communists who use it.
I'm too shit at computers to erect privacy from big brother, to be honest.

Tor is not comped. Your only concern with Tor assuming best practice(don't use exit nodes within 5Eyes jurisdiction, etc.) would be a global passive adversary. This would only be a concern if your operations are directly targeting a government or are political in nature and are of sufficient scope/impact. This makes for a pretty narrow requirement of what is essentially engaging in espionage. You are into some serious shit if you warrant the necessary resources to be tracked through Tor.

If you want to stay safe get a Netherlands vpn and use ungoogled-chromium litterally all you need to stay secure. As Netherlands has the best laws for anonymity.

The Feds beat Tor years ago.
Nolan Johnson
The Government neber trusted you to begin with, so there is no reason to trust the government doesn't abuse your information.
Wyatt Flores
if you're not using tor to browse .onion sites exclusively you're doing it fucking wrong
Xavier Young
eepsites my man also don't use anything newer than a core 2 duo as it has Intel ME, look it up ideally a 2008 thinkpad with libreboot and a distro like tails or qubes pay for shit with monero etc
There's pretty much no info about me when you Google my name. I don't use social media so my chances of getting targeted by lefties is essentially zero. Jow Forums and liveleak are the sketchiest sites I visit. My opsec is simply not drawing attention to myself.
Im not the most tech literate but I feel like I'd be painting an even bigger target on my back if my bank/credit card records showed that I purchased the services of a VPN. As is, I'm a gray man. Yeah, if an NSA trannie decided to dig into my data I might be fucked but why would they?

>The Feds beat Tor years ago. The TOR network was a creation of the US dept. of Navy you ignorant fuck. The gov gets all the info on you it could possibly want from you cable, internet and cell service providers. The concept pf privacy died with the new wording in t6he renewal of the Patriot Act. Take a couple cays and read both Patriots Acts 1 and 2.0 in their entirety and then you will realize it's all over and has been over for 16 years. Look into the law that retroactively protected the ISPs from civil suits first time in our nations history) for breaking everyone's 4th and 5th amendment rights. What a shame that even here on Jow Forums so many simply have no idea whats really going on.
The only reason they were able to nail DPR is because he accidentally signed into his work email on clearnet. And that was after years of work and millions of dollars worth of man-hours.
Granted, if you're doing the sort of shit that warrants the government assassinating you, then they're not going to bother with a convictable standard of evidence; but for the standard user TOR provides a sufficient measure of security.
Zachary Anderson
TOR was safe? When?
It was always controlled by nigger agencies

>use public wifi
watch out for security cameras too.
If you're at a Starbucks, downloading mass amounts of content, they could time-stamp your session and match it on the tapes of the coffee shop.
Then through facial recognition software, track you down from your driver-license photo, and still find out who you are.
