Also wanted to mention Tails, but there was no space left for it :p

I'm fairly certain Tor is better than a new laptop.

Stolen laptop + tails + stolen car + McDonald's wifi

[-] repungnant_canary@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago

I am not quite sure buying a new laptop is better than Tor, unless you have a way to buy the laptops anonymously with cash and not being seen by any cameras. Then you would still need to connect to a different network every time.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 6 points 1 year ago

You can wear those anti-face-detection glasses every time you buy a laptop with cash.

[-] newIdentity@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

You mean these sick Raving glasses? Hell yeah.

Fun tip for anyone in a country with blacklisted torrent sites- TOR browser plows right through it. You can open up TOR and go straight to thepiratebay.org.

[-] PraiseTheSoup@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Straight to it...after a 30 second delay. Tor is great. It's just far too slow for general browsing

[-] Shazbot@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

Needs another layer for VPN chaining after driving 1 hour away to use public WiFi so they never know where you truly are.

[-] SpaceCadet2000@kbin.social 18 points 1 year ago

... only for you to google: "burger restaurant near "

[-] Risk@feddit.uk 4 points 1 year ago

Surely you'd be able to triangulate the VPN connections based on the 1 hour drive.

Better to just become a nomad.

In a cat and mice game the mice will always be the one tot lose. You know who wouldn't lose to a cat? A pack of dogs. Be a pack of dogs. I'm gonna stop here before I say something very illegal bye.

Pi-Hole is a really thing but I don’t think my tech skills are quite up to scratch. Plus I think the wife would get ratty if it stopped working while I was out.

[-] Fafner@yiffit.net 7 points 1 year ago

You can set one up your network and just point your DNS request at it on a device-by-device basis. So your wife would only use it if she wanted to.

If you run it bare metal (not in a dockercontainers for example) it's quite easy to set it up on a raspberry pi or other hardware. The wife would even know it's existence if you don't tell her and use a standard config in the blocklists ..give it a try ..you're gonna love it

[-] coffeebiscuit@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Ad links from emails won’t work anymore. And the “top results” in Google won’t work.

The wife would complain.

[-] rentar42@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yup, the ad results in Google had to be whitelisted to increase the SO-acceptance-factor. But once that's done it's really not much of a hassle at all, but whitelisting is easy if you just check the recently blocked domains.

Pi-hole is pretty robust and not super hard to set up. You can run pi-hole on relatively cheap hardware, such as a Raspberry Pi 3B. I’m a big fan of Libre Computing’s “le-potato” board for running pi-hole; it’s a cheap raspberry pi clone. You’ll need some basic Linux skills but if you can follow step by step directions you’ll be fine. If you use a raspberry pi or similar hardware you’ll also need a micro SD card reader during the set up process.

[-] uid0gid0@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

They even have a Linux distro just for running stuff like that on the Pi, it's called Dietpi and it's pretty bulletproof.

Oh interesting! I’d never heard of le-potato. I’ll check that out, thanks!

VPN, block cookies, noscript, never sign into any user account.

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Can you say more about never signing into a user account? I'm not sure I'm making the connection here.

[-] cloudless@feddit.uk 6 points 1 year ago

Sorry I should have mentioned an "online account".

I have read many stories of people getting into trouble because they thought a VPN would protect their identity, and got caught because they signed into their online account which would be easily traceable.

[-] BallShapedMan@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Oh I got you. That makes sense.

The most illegal thing I do online is make fun of my kids with an account they know so I'm probably good. Though I do hate all the privacy invasion and do reasonable efforts for me to prevent like uBlock and Firefox and so on.

[-] yeather@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago

With the VPN it stops websites from knowing who you are. They don't have an email, name, or real IP to track.

It's a self hosted DNS that you can easily run on a raspberry pi
