yeah, tbh if you want anonymity, stay off the internet. even P2P has its risks.
Correct, but P2P and Steganography are the only valid resources for eg.Periodists in oppressive countries. In western world all this isn't really needed, there are enough some basics and common sense to protect sensitive data. I don't think that any of the Lemmies here are from North Corea, because people there can't even access other than the own state social network or even use other than the goverment server and ISP.
100% privacy don't exist in the moment you go online, you can only patch the biggest holes, protecting somewhat against the surveillance of companies, but not against goverments when you are in a criminal investigation, irrelevant what you do, you cant avoid to be targeted if you act against the law, the more than 3000 criminal websites seized by the authorities in the Onion show what are the possibility they have in the web when needed.
