This seems like an excellent list on first glance. Is there a similar "practical advice" type of list.
Sadly, I tried to imagine I'd need to be as anonymous as possible and couldn't even figure out how to get an untraceable email address (legally).
My basic thought was to use some public WLAN (hoping for no MiTM), ideally not close to where I actually live and then use Tor to create a Hushmail account (as I recall the EFF recommends it).
Alas it seems that's already flawed since a quick websearch suggests Hushmail cooperates with government agencies.
Admittedly I haven't spend a lot of time researching available options but I think it's pretty hard to even get step 1 right. I can only imagine how hard it must be for someone who isn't tech saavy at all.

You can even send them money in an envelope (1 euro/month) without a return address and they will accept the payment.

- kriro 11y agoThanks, this seems to be pretty much what I was looking for. The two conceptual hurdles I ran into were. 1) If it requires payment there's a trail 2) Most other solutions usually require some sort of reference mail/postal address or phone number. This seems to solve both :)
