That said, the ideal for privacy is no logging and anonymous pay (e.g., bitcoin). But billing isn't as bad as logging. Just because I bought toilet paper doesn't mean I was the one who threw it all over the mayor's house; just means I had enough TP to do so.
Also, TOR works over VPNs. Then all the VPN sees is you entered TOR. You need this because one of your congregation works at the VPN and he'd know you're watching stuff on PornHub.

OpenVPN a shit. Seriously, you shouldn't use it unless you're very religious to keep it. It's not a standard. Use IPSec.
I run a non-profit organization and I intend to start offering VPNs for members. The server will be colocated in Sweden (Portlane), they're very tolerant for freedom of speech and all the legal things. All the transparency, privacy and digital rights things apply of course. I do it out of my pure frustration for the lack of service providers that are actually transparent.
Membership fees are 12€ or 24€ annually, it's not enough to cut even (we'll still generate loss, ~720€ annual costs for one server) but we can't make more because the tax office could otherwise say we're not a non-profit organization anymore. Not being non-profit could get us in trouble, because it would mean we may have to start logging and all other shit electronics commerce laws would apply. Money's not an issue though, I've funded our organization for many years out of my pure interest for the public's good.
It'd be best if I could remove myself out of the equation, but however someone has to run the server and apply security patches to it. The best thing you can do is be your own VPN host. Protip: Use OpenIKED with OpenBSD for the server.
I am not yet going to name the organization I run right now.
>PRQ vs Mullvad?PRQ is so expensive and their network is… ugh.
http://bgp.he.net/AS33837Mullvad is nice, premium locations for 5€/month. Of course, I am not going to beat them in locations or price because they get so many servers wholesale for cheap.
> What provider do you use?Currently none, not even our organization's virtual servers until that colocation is in place.
> How do you avoid attacks on your network?Never had this issue in all these years, so we don't. I don't even subscribe to DDoS protections for the servers.

Every machine in our network is a dedicated, from-the-metal server we adminiser ourselves - we never use insecure VPS "servers" in production context. Each of our nodes is running a grsec-upgraded Debian kernel. We self-compile all core cryptographic libraries from currently-pushed SRC.
So strike that I can't quite find any complaints with them except this [completely unfounded] rumor
https://www.bestvpn.com/blog/8015/cryptostorm-beta-review/>CryptoStorm is a reincarnation of VPN service CryptoCloud, a subsidiary (or possibly close working partner) of Baneki Privacy Computing, the CTO of which was a certain Douglas Spink (it has been widely reported that Mr Spink was the owner of both CryptoCloud and Baneki Privacy Computing, but a current spokesperson for CryptoStorm maintains that ‘Baneki Privacy Labs is not “owned” by anyone. It’s a collective of security researchers, as it has been for many years.’A cocaine snorting [alleged] CEO is actually pretty based, however
>If Mr Spink is indeed involved with CryptoStorm, then his quick release from prison following his drug smuggling conviction, combined with the fact that following the bestiality farm case a condition of his release was that any computing hardware and software of his is be monitored by the United States Probation Department, could lead to well-founded suspicion that CryptoStorm might be an FBI honeypot.All in all so long as it isn't slow and the government isn't monitoring its CEO, Cryptostorm is the best VPN. Unfortunately it will also probably be one of the first to shut down. Supposedly in the event of having to some how identify a user Cryptostorm has promised to hit the self destruct button

A colocation means the client owns the hardware, not the datacenter.
>NordVPN>For example Sweeden notoriously tells US law to fuck off and that it doesn't apply to themBut any serious provider will still obey to local copyright laws. In most cases, DMCA or not, VPN providers will just have to explain it may be impossible to verify if any infringement happened. The best VPN providers can do to reduce abuse is to (temporarily) block IP-addresses.
>CryptostormHosted with OVH, trash.
>Mullvad>basic network toolsEvery single VPN provider does this. It's basically netstat, unlikely tcpdump. There is no such system where you can't completely tell where the connections are coming or going to.

By the way, I wanted to mention that European mandatory data retention laws do not apply to VPN service providers according to my lawyer. At least, not in Finland.
In Finland, you have to file a "teletoimintailmoitus" (literally "notice of telecommunications") to Viestintävirasto (Finnish Communications Regulatory Authority - FICORA) if you provide internet connections "to an unrestricted audience". In other words, this means telecoms providing ADSL2+, cable and fiber connections.
VPN service providers do not fall under this.
In Sweden, VPN companies will benefit from "prepaid internet access" laws that give the highest privacy protection and thus also working around the mandatory data retention laws.
You should also look for VPN service providers who offer IPSec, preferably hosted using OpenIKED on OpenBSD.
Because I do not know of any (Mullvad is religious to OpenVPN), I am setting up one (OpenBSD/OpenIKED) in upcoming weeks (but I'd be way too afraid to post it directly on /baphomet/). It will be all non-profit.

>>70196Do not use VeraCrypt, it has just been released and is unproven. TrueCrypt 7.1 was released 3 years ago and has been solid since release. The developers deciding to abandon development does not make TrueCrypt "unsafe". Read the GRC link, it has email communication between Steven Barnhart and the TrueCrypt developers. The TrueCrypt developers outline why why they abandoned the project: "There is no longer interest".
TrueCrypt has been around for 10 years. It would be unreasonable to expect the developers to work on TrueCrypt for an eternity.
If you still insist TrueCrypt is "unsafe", then go read the GRC link come back and outline a specific vulnerability that would make it "unsafe". There isn't any vulnerability, the developers got tired of working on TrueCrypt and moved on.

I do care for your best and I want to let you know that Portlane has changed (organisation wise, not network) since we last spoke, maybe you know about it already. I do not know any details, but shortly after the Piratebay raid in December, things were changed and the former CEO and owner is no longer with Portlane, and there are new owners.

And indeed, Bahnhof is expensive as fuck. 24 EUR per Mbps, so a server with 5 TB monthly traffic server will cost 180 EUR per month. It's completely ridiculous, the hosting company who I quoted above said they got a quote for about ~90 EUR per month from Bahnhof. Still very expensive.

Thanks to this thread I'm moving forward on getting legit. I've determined that the best mode of security would just be to have a normal PC for games and whatever and then to have a pirate PC running through a VPN doing all manner of illegality.
This PC would run tails os (unless you want to recommend something better) on a 32gb usb 3.0 thumb drive. If the man shows up, pull the thumb drive and flush it. Better than encryption
Since it would be on all the time I'm thinking of doing a all in one PC but I don't know if you can buy one without a hard drive or buy one and take the hard drive out.

In public, WLAN with WPA2 won't really help you if you don't own the access point. In that scenario, WPA2 802.1X ("WPA2 Enterprise") which allows typing any combination of username and password to encrypt your connection is much better. CCC hacker conferences do this, for example.
There's lots of applications you don't really need. It's paranoid security, and in fact it still won't save you from the fact that GNU/Linux is never as secure as OpenBSD. Installing all those applications will in fact make you more vulnerable, opening more attack space.
For password management on *nix-like operating systems, pass is better than KeePass.

No.79397
>>79351Well, there are lots of different nodes per single vpns anon… so conceivably your IP can change as often as you like (between like 10-20 different nodes depending on your vpn). How often the IP changes on a single node will depend on the VPN provider. According to VyperVPNs website, they have over 45 servers with over 200,000 IP addresses… so we can assume that most (all?) VPN providers has multiple IP addresses per node. I'd guess that it just assigns it randomly. So with viper vpn… I mean 200k is a lot… You could change your IP literally every three minutes for a year and it would just barely use all 200k of them. Cryptostorm and Mullvad have fewer than 45 servers… somewhere between 10-20… Mullvad has more than Cryptostorm for sure.

>>78874No, it's not good they log too much info, go with nordVPN.
1. Do we keep logs? What is that? Seriously, we have a strict no-logs policy over our customers. The only information we keep is customers’ e-mail addresses which are needed for our service registration (we keep the e-mail addresses until the customer closes the account).
2. NordVPN is based out of Panama.
3. No tools are used to monitor our customers in any case. We are only able to see the servers’ load, which helps us optimize our service and provide the best possible Internet speed to our users.
4. We use the third-party live support tool, but it is not linked to the customers’ accounts.
5. When we receive any type of legal notices, we cannot do anything more than to ignore them, simply because they have no legal bearing to us. Since we are based in Panama, all legal notices have to be dealt with according to Panamanian laws first. Luckily they are very friendly to Internet users.
6.If we receive a valid court order, firstly it would have to comply with the laws of Panama. In that case, the court settlement should happen in Panama first, however were this to happen, we would not be able to provide any information because we keep exactly nothing about our users.
7. We do not have a warrant canary or any other alert system, because as it was mentioned above, we operate under the laws of Panama and we guarantee that any information about our customers will not be distributed to any third party.
8. We do not restrict any BitTorrent or other file-sharing applications on most of our servers.
9. We accept payments via Bitcoin, Credit Card, PayPal, Banklink, Webmoney (Paysera). Bitcoin is the best payment option to maintain your anonymity as it has only the paid amount linked to the client. Users who purchase services via PayPal are linked with the usual information the seller can see about the buyer.
10. We have high anonymity solutions which we would like to recommend to everyone seeking real privacy. One of them is Double VPN. The traffic is routed through at least two hoops before it reaches the Internet. The connection is encrypted within two layers of cipher AES-256-CBC encryption. Another security solution – Tor over VPN. Firstly, the traffic is encrypted within NordVPN layer and later sent to the Tor network and exits to the Internet through one of the Tor exit relays. Both of these security solutions give a great encryption and anonymity combination. The benefit of using these solutions is that the chances of being tracked are eliminated. In addition, you are able to access .onion websites when connected to Tor over VPN. Furthermore, our regular servers have a strong encryption which is 2048bit SSL for OpenVPN protocol, AES-256bit for L2TP.
In addition to that, we have advanced security solutions, such as the “kill switch” and DNS leak protection which provide the maximum possible security level for our customers.
11. NordVPN has its own DNS servers, also our customers can use any DNS server they like.
12. Our servers are outsourced and hosted by a third parties. Currently our servers are in 26 countries: Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Chile, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Iceland, Isle of Man, Israel, Italy, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Netherlands, Panama, Poland, Romania, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom and United States.

If you live in Yurop you can buy Paysafecard to pay your VPN. Many of them accept it. If you live in Burgerstan try Localbitcoins for buying. In metropolitan areas they have good coverage and you can buy for cash (anonymously) if the seller is not a massive faggot.

Anything USA related (or any company that has a store or office in Burgerstan) should be boycotted. .gov in DC even thinks if you are listed in the Dow Jones or NASDAQ you fall under US regulation even if you don't have a office on their soil.

Sorry for tripplepost guys (my autism)
Paypal banned any user that made bitcoin related business a few years ago but I am not sure how it is now. Many VPN services also accept credit cards but if you want maximum anonymity you should either pay:
- cash (cash in envelope is accepted by a few but this might get you unwanted attention if customs open your envelope if you send it outside of your country)
- bitcoin (use localbitcoins and search for people who sell for cash anonymously not in your home town but still near by, contact them via TOR with a fake email address and call yourself adam smith or something, also make sure you don't meet up where .gov CCTV will photograph you)
- Paysafecard (can be bought in Yurop at any newspaper shop, kiosk or gas station anonymously for cash, try to find a small shop run by indians or pakistanis that has no cams installed
There is also this webmoney or how it is called but this is only popular in russia if I remember right.
Also as a general guidance, if your targeted VPN service does not accept Bitcoin or at least Paysafecard but insists on namefagging payment methods it can't be trusted, especially if it is a Burgerstan company.

TPM isn't entirely malicious. Secure boot is what locks down your boot sequence and restricts your freedom. Trusted boot can make it evident that your boot process has been tampered with. The caveat to trusted boot is that it only works if they haven't tampered with your TPM (not easy) and that they haven't tampered with your graphics card (because it can bypass the verification). Trusted boot also won't catch a hardware keylogger, which is probably the most reliable cross-platform way to get someone's disk encryption password and spy on everything they type.
In the order of least to most paranoid:
0. Don't use windows.
1. Use full disk encryption
2. Move the boot partition and luks header to a removable disk so analysis of your hard drive would not prove that you are using encryption (especially important for air travel). Keep this boot media with you at all times.
3. Never let your computer out of your sight. Piss with your computer. Fuck with your computer. Sleep with it between your box spring. If anyone wants to tamper with your computer, they'll have to tamper with you first.

No.82047

Pros: VPN on anything that goes through the router; most services have a limit on the number of devices you can connect. Connecting it to the router would only count for 1 connection
Cons: Theres no such thing as 100% uptime. Connecting to the router would mean that you have no internet if the VPN goes down. If the VPN breaks its more of a hassle to get it to go back up. Speed is also an issue. Cryptostorm claims 50mbs but you could have 60+mbs and have bandwidth go unused.

You probably remember the threads about the spooky daycare and the alleged satanic pedophile ring. http://fullchan4jtta4sx.onion/baphomet/res/60114.html Nothing really came out of that, still I think the rabbit is both creepy and mysterious enough to be exploited. Imagine the potential lulz if we make similar stickers and use them against SJWs and other targets. Subtly placing them somewhere at their property or cars would be gold, but this will be risky and seldomly possible. We could start by placing stickers at similar creepy locations, preferrably if they are connected to children. Let people think that image is really a sign for some underground pedo mafia, then link potential targets to it. I don't have any other ideas yet but I would strongly advise against using or even mentioning the rabbit anywhere on the clearnet. Its biggest strenght is that the few bits of information you find about it are pic related and the daycare. This should prove to be highly unsettling for anyone trying to research what these stickers are about. tl;dr I think that pic might prove useful in psychological warfare. As Colonel Walter E.

I'm surprised at the lack of mention of Setting up a VPS to act as a VPN, why use a middle man. VPS could also be monitoring you but eh.
So my current plan is to set up a few jump boxes and route everything through them. Using openVPN seems to be the best server/client option to use, seems to allow for a wider range of features along with supporting harderning techniques
cloud at cost seems decent for a single jump ( one time payment of a VPS ) data limits a little shit but you have only paid once for it:

yourserver.se - which is not too expensive for a years sub and they are supporting users using the VPS as a VPN.
my current plan is - VM with tails > latvian server jump box > cloud at cost jump box 2 > cloud at cost jump box 3.
Along with fitting the first step with duel authentication from a burner phone and what ever and some server harderning. Also you know if you want to go all out paranoid you could do everything from a public wifi on top of all this.. or next doors wifi.

You need to configure your torrent program correctly and you can use the "check my torrent IP".torrent file to test out your IP.
For the correct settings, you need to enter your VPN username and pass into the settings section of your torrent client.
Then you need to connect to your VPN and find out the port you currently have assigned from your VPN.
This will either be displayed in your torrent client or your VPS homepage will have a feature to find it out.
Then enter this port into your torrent program settings too.
Important
If you just insert your username and pass without the port you might have a godlike leak for torrenting.
This is because in torrenting the communication to the tracker servers and your actual torrent traffic will then go two different paths.
Your torrent client will use the VPN connection to communicate with the tracker server but your normal connection (unsecure) for the actual P2P traffic.
"Check my torrent IP" will not reveal this leak as it only checks your tracker communication traffic.
You can check if you have this leak simply by right-clicking onto one of the peers on any torrent you have running and copying the complete peer list.
Then paste the peer list into a .txt file and start watching for your real IP and your VPN IP (find out your real IP before connecting to your VPN).
If the peer list has your real IP then you have a leak, if it only has your VPN IP you are safe.
If you forgot to find out your real IP before, you can also keep an eye on all IPs that seem to come from your country and post them to any IP geolocation service.
If your town shows up you are fucked.

I have a quick question about user agent strings.
I have been manually changing my user agent to IE, Chrome, Mozilla etc…, within Firefox. All the strings are newer versions of the browsers, and the sites I go to see them as newer versions. However, some sites are broken while I browse them and some don't work all together.
Is there a better way to do this without the hassle of switching back and forth between multiple strings just to get a site to load properly?

Hey guys I have a question and I didn't want to make a new thread - please help.
I recently gained access to my University's email list services which forwards any email it receives to every student and faculty member on the list (It's a top 20 school).
Problem: how can I email the listserv without having it traced back to me? I plan on carrying out the lulz so I can't have anything come back to me.

1) Go to a local coffee shop with free wifi
2) Turn on your VPN
3) Boot up Tor (bridges configured)
4) Go to any anonymous mailing service on the internet
https://anonymousemail.me/ is a good example
5) Send the email
That's probably overkill as fuck but it's best to be safe.

I've been recently reading into things regarding "deep web" and similar shit. Of course I'm insanely paranoid of any potential issues so I want to ensure I'm 100% anon while doing that kinda stuff.
From what I've gathered what I have to do is
>Install some form of Linux such as TAILS or something onto a USB or something
>Use Tor obviously
>Install a VPN not based in your country like cryptostorm or Mullvad
>Only use gift cards to buy bitcoins or another crypto-currency although that might be somewhat redundant and unnecessary
Is that the basic gist of it or am I missing some important things. I'm a huge newfag when it comes to this shit so I'm probably missing something.

How the fuck do I you buy Bitcoins anonymously? If I give my bank account number to Coinbase or some shit I might as well be using a credit card. And I'd never give my bank account to some Tor Bitcoin service either. Having criminals or Feds posing as free speech SJWs is even worse.

You could buy a prepaid debit card with cash at a local shop.
Alternatively this site https://localbitcoins.com/ will list dealers who will meet up with you and accept cash for coin. You usually have to buy quite a lot though.

I figured I'd ask one more question while I'm making a post anyways what's "carding" exactly? I've seen it a few places, specifically things-related to selling paypal accounts and similar places and Google gave me nothing. Those sites sound fishy as fuck though so it's not a huge deal.

Carding is the act of acquiring credit card data that is not of your belonging.

I'm surprised PIA got so much support here. I think I posted this in the last thread, but I thought it was nice to see that PIA is somewhat interested in keeping logs safe.
I admit that I only got their service because I use a good-goy iphone and they have an app. Otherwise I'd be using something based outside the US.
I picked it up for a deal on a groupon-type website, 2 years for ~60ish I think. I used my cc which was probably a bad move, but it's not like I'm not looking at pizza anyway so I'm just needing ISP torrenting protection and passive-surveillance protection.
Next time I'll probably get a bum to walk into walmart and buy a gift card and just use that for a different service.

Yes, there is a point. With stuff like CISA getting glommed onto the Omnibus bill, cybersecurity is only going to become more important in the future. I doubt even the RIAA/MPAA can prosecute retroactively, so consider yourself lucky you've avoided the juden's gorgon gaze so far.
I would say to hop off of Windows now rather than later and start doing nothing off of a VPN. It can occasionally cause issues, but privacy is worth a bit of discomfort. You're punching a ticket to the FEMA camps by posting here without some sort of protecting.
