Hey anons,
I am a cyber security brainlet. I wanna start improving my awareness skills and not get tracked by (((them))). What browser, search engine and VPNs do you guys recommend?
I sure could use some help, I have no idea, and you guys are literally the best source of like minded people I can find.
Thanks in advance

Too late, I interned for the NSA. The fact you already connected to the internet means it's over
Of course user, but surely using Tor and meme search engine like DuckDuckGo would be a good start right? I using Trisquel atm and gnu icecat as my default browser. Would the change for a more secure browser benefit my goals?
Btw user, how did you landed that NSA internship? I'm legit curious. WEre you in the military?
Yes it's a start but the NSA by law doesn't hold data and instead your ISP and other services you use online does. So at any point they can request your data from up to 3 months and build your profile as such.
>how did you landed that NSA internship?
I did data science, I'm not a CS major nor was I in the military but I did apply and showed them the research that I did was very math and data intensive. Then I had to take a test (they tell you what to study for mainly) and then the interview
Fascinating stuff user. Really.
Would the use of the Tor browser circumvent the profiling my ISP has on me?
Also what would you reccomend for me to use, not get tracked (or at least try not to) while browsing online? I am currently working on my MsC. and I use the web extensively.
Many thanks
Duckduckgo is compromised
1. Its owned by a jew
2. Its based in the usa > nsa and fbi has access
3. For a couple milliseconds when loading u get unsecured http leaking your search (try it yourself)
Use startpage and Tor
If you use your home network u dont need a vpn for Tor, except if Tor illegal to use in your country (which its probably not) or you have mandatory data retention laws
I live in a kinda liberalish european country. Tor is not blocked here by any means.
Also I was searching for these awsers on the installgentoowiki but could not find shit, nor a list of Jow Forums approved software. Thanks for your reply mate
If u want the most security with little effort just use Tails, the Tor operating system with default settings and 1000x1000 window
If u have a intel cpu built after 2011 u have Intel Management Engine which may be a NSA/Mossad backdoor
There are librebooted old thinkpads that have this removed for sale on the web
Amd is probably not any better, and has nsa backdoors too
Your not hackproof but u can make it much harder for them if u use Tails at least
>Would the use of the Tor browser circumvent the profiling my ISP has on me?
I don't know, I only managed the data. I have no idea how they collect since I didn't have the clearance for it
>Also what would you reccomend for me to use, not get tracked (or at least try not to) while browsing online? I am currently working on my MsC. and I use the web extensively.
Honestly, Tor, tails, startpage, like other anons here say. I've effectively given up
I'm using an HP desktop atm with a post-2011 i5 unfortunately. I dunno if I can libreboot this shit, but I'm highly considering it.
About the thinkpad, I own a t400 which I librebooted myself thanks to you guys here in Jow Forums. Unfortunately I'm using kubuntu on that shit, so I might reconsider changing OS to tails like you've mentioned.
I've been using Trisquel so far on this PC so far and I was satisfied, but as of recently I started going paranoid for some reason lol.
Yeah, I know I am not hackproof, I just want to have stronger defenses instead of acting like the brainlet I have been so far
