  • Regularly delete stuff, you dont want your sd card popped out and accessed. The devices are encrypted but the sd card is not ... At least my device doesn't have that option. I also ensure I have backed up my 2FA codes if the phone is lost or stolen, you dont want to be locked out of your accounts. freeOTP+ allows you to export them.

    I used to cover them camera with tape but I have to many signal video calls for that to be workable.

  • Vitamin C , lots of water. Rest and real non processed food such fresh fruit and vegetables. I also avoid carb heavy meals when unwell to give my system a break. I still eat some carbs but just keep it light.

  • EA and Ubisoft.

    Most clothing brands... I'm not paying a premium to be a walking advertisement and its all made in sweatshops anyway. I'd rather some non branded stuff so I'm contributing less to that whole system.

    I dont care about all of the android watch or apple airtag stuff either. The new phone can do xyz.. Great still dont care as its a tracking piece of shit that will break in a few years.. I may as well keep my current piece of shit until the wheels fall off.

    Subscription services. I used to use Netflix back in the day when you only needed one subscription and changing the DNS still worked.

    I use free Spotify with brave adblocking and newpipe for music. I hear sailing is lovely this time of year.

    TLDR: I avoid most corporations where I can , I think valve are the only one that I dont mind interacting with.

  • A tor node or relay is just someone running and configuring tor on their server to accept and forward connections to the tor network being part of the chain. Normally a chain has three nodes: an entry , a middle and an exit.

    Onion repos are software repositories in this case for the Debian Linux operating system that contain firmware and package updates and are hosted as onion services accessible over tor.

  • Proton VPN is free and there is also riseup VPN. I run a tor node so I can at least vouch for that one 🙂. The more people that use it and run nodes the more it normalizes it. You can also use onion repos in your distro if supported. I know Debian had had then for a few years now and it uses the apt-transport-tor package.

  • Preaching to the choir but good to remind some people. Thats why you avoid or limit use of those services. Use tor or a VPN and use multiple layers of blocking such as DNS and in browser blocking. Also foss only applications where possible.

  • If I was going to do it I would only host the site on tor or i2p. I'd only host magnet links with minimal metadata and aim to have the site work without JavaScript. Maybe a small flask application or something to populate the pages using templates. Very basic, light weight and secure.

    I would also release a monthly dump of the site to allow it to survive in the event of a takedown .

    This way you have a minimal attack surface , you are protected from legal threats as they dont know where or who is hosting and they dont have a hosting provider to send the notices to.

    With regular dumps of the site , taking it down becomes futile as there are copies out there in the wild, that can spring up the next day if needed. Its like a diversified seed bank if you will 😉.
