    Many people I talk to IRL don't trust any US systems at all. It's a sad state of affairs when one can trust Chinese systems over western. Especially after Snowden. God bless him.

    Was going to write something. You wrote basically all I had to say. I'm so apathetic at this point :(

    Warrants are extremely easy to get, basically rubber stamped. It's so bad that LE will put in things they know are outright unconstitutional, knowing the magistrate won't really re…

    I forget where I had read it, but the spotters were also picking up and recording conversations. Inadvertently, of course.

    Thanks for the reply. Just a few questions: It is necessary to connect to the VPN before Tor, correct? Also, is your script essentially the same thing as multihop that some of the …

    What is the best way to create the chains? Do you recommend spinning up some Vbox images?

    Every American service and product needs to be treated as compromised, it really comes down to that. Individual companies now need to earn back basic trust. This doesn't mean you h…
