Reminds me of the old joke:
Use Signal, over Tor, over Switzerland
- cookiengineer 6y agoWell, most people these days cannot grasp what anonymity means. Anonymity doesn't exist, therefore you have to wear a mask to blend in. I mean, TOR browser is great and all... But the traffic will be suspiciously obvious for outside actors that look for statistical behaviours before they take a deeper look. I hear a lot of (even CS people) that say things like "oh it's encrypted via TOR so nobody can listen" ...which is just such a wrong statement and makes people careless about everything else, including starttls email and http requests by default with their web browser. People assume they are safe, but nobody mentions how they should use their own biggest piece of spyware correctly: the web browser. If ungoogled-chromium dies, there'll be pretty much no safe alternative available. PS to avoid potential errands: And no, recommending Firefox is just as uninformed as recommending Switzerland. Use mitmproxy to verify.
