What is anonymity?

What is anonymity?

Many will think that using an anonymous OS (tails, parrot, kodachi and others) in conjunction with Tor or another overlay network and an "anonymous" messenger. They pay with bitcoin, I use a mixer, a temporary mail and a phone number registered on the drop or received in another way, and that's it. It would seem that we are the elusive Joe. Only these are fairy tales and without understanding what's under the hood of tools or tool kits, you won't get far.

Probably, I will disappoint a certain percentage of people, although it lies on the surface, but with good funding, a staff of specialists with a large background and an order from above, you will be found with a probability of > 99%.

From simple OSINT specialists (singles) and ordinary civilians with a desire to learn as much as possible about you, my dear subscriber, you can easily defend yourself, it's stupid to hope for something more, or you need to be a very good and extraordinary specialist and delay the moment of coming for you. Of course, if you engage in petty hooliganism on the network by type: hacking for the interest of a school website or connecting to an IP camera, then you can not be particularly afraid, but there is a certain line, crossing which you enter into a deliberately lost war. In order not to go around and around, after even an attempt to break into state institutions or structures, people in uniform can come to you and hold an interesting conversation, if you are lucky, you will go to jail.

What am I leading up to, but to what, either you spend a lot of time studying the match and practice, or you don't even think about doing something cooler than connecting to a store's camera or hacking a neighbor's wi-fi.

Well, if you are still reading, then you are aware of the alignment of affairs.

Regarding the article on digital hygiene, it is in the process, it just doesn't come out quite small.

To begin with, I note that a customized system that is constantly living and changing, with the appearance of new attack vectors, can hide your identity until a certain moment, do not forget, because we are people and we make mistakes much more often than modern machines.

So what is anonymity (well, finally, I'm tired of reading) - the process of hiding your identity, both in real life and online. Constant adherence to the basic concepts of digital hygiene, checking tools before further use, understanding the work of networks, OS, electronic currencies, basic knowledge of cryptography, steganography, and perhaps maintaining psychological health is normal, because over time paranoia, lack of sleep and fatigue accumulate, as well as further errors, like a snowball increase. The list of necessary areas is wide and it's silly to describe everything, because it can only be disorienting. The cycle of articles has already been planned, it remains to write them and go deeper.

For now, I advise you to read the manuals from whonix .

Thank you for wasting your time, the Schizoid has gone, good luck to you, dear subscriber.
