I think it's really cool that this page exists, even if very, very few people will follow all the advice.

- ballenf 8y agoWouldn't the social media "like" buttons still transmit back your IP address as the images are loaded?
- bo1024 8y agoYes, though IP address isn't too much info. You can mitigate it with a VPN or by not loading external resources by default.

So each workspace VM is compartmentalized at both OS and networking levels. IVPN published my how-to guides for that. They're a little out of date, but the basic design still works well.
