You can, with some inconvenience, use optical diodes to transmit data from a trusted input device to an untrusted network device for transport over tor, and then push the received messages over a second diode to a display device that decrypts the messages, so that even if you receive an exploit/malware, there is no physical connection that allows unencrypted data to be exfiltrated.

- brokenmachine 4y agoThanks, that was actually super interesting, never heard of a data diode before. BRB, just setting up six new PCs so I can chat with my friend, lol.
