  1. I was going to have a little side quest and try Whonix, which is known to be a privacy focused distro that can be run in VirtualBox. However, I ran into trouble, that can be fixed by reading some documentation (it was related to adding additional kernel components). However, I'll do that later on because learning should be my priority. Before focus solidifies, I often need these little diversions to get my brain locked in.

  2. #whonix version 18 is broken for me with virtualbox.
    Can't set the right keyboard layout - there is an entry complaining about that for ch_fr or fr_ch in the forum - and copy/paste on Virtualbox does no longer work.
    I'll remove Whonix 17 but I don't understand why the latest and greatest #wayland was chosen but is not really usable.
    Obviously, there will be no solution in the foreseeable future for virtualbox and depending on it was a mistake !

  14. Whonix (v18) on Proxmox

    If you want to run multiple VMs behind a Whonix Gateway VM, you can find a guide on how to do so here:

    wiki.digitalprivacy.diy/en/ext

    It also covers a basic proxmox installation. A bit VLAN with openwrt.

    Have fun and, of course, a happy new year!

  15. All traffic routed through Tor by design.
    Whonix integrates Tor Browser to protect your identity and resist tracking at every layer.

  16. Built with hardened defaults for users who take privacy seriously.
    Whonix delivers anonymity and security you can rely on.

  17. Visualize where your traffic goes - without revealing who you are.
    Whonix’s Tor Connection & Destination Viewer (`tor-ctrl-observer`) adds transparency while preserving strong anonymity.

  18. Maximum Anonymity
    With Whonix, your real IP never touches the internet, every connection is routed through a secure, leak-proof system.

  19. Recently installed Kicksecure and Whonix on a 'persistent' USB stick.

    Already have TAILS OS as a 'persistent' install on a USB stick and cloned to a MicrSD card.

    I'm wondering if anyone is aware of any other viable 'live' or 'persistent' Linux OS's for portable use?

  20. Every time I use #TorBrowser and @whonix after a while of not, I'm super impressed by major changes and improvements to both of #softwares.

    Man Beginnt jede Reise mit dem ersten Schritt.

    Der Wechsel von WhatsApp zu Signal ist ein vergleichsweise kleiner Schritt, der einen aber schon sehr weit bringt.

    Nerdiges:
    Fürs Handy gibt es #GraphenOS und andere ROMs"

    #Whonix und #Tails (ja kenne beides) sind sicher der "Goldstandard" wenn man von sicherer Hardware ausgeht (Höhe des Paranoiagrades) .

    Aber nichts von alledem ist gegenwärtig "mehrheitsfähig".

  22. # Happy New Year!

    Start the new year with a new project!

    We have published yesterday a short DIY tutorial!
    "Whonix on Proxmox" which gives you a bit more privacy for all your Proxmox VMs!

  23. @dvergano … until you start using techniques to defend against #stylometry

    whonix.org/wiki/Stylometry

    (One of the many reasons I love and support the #whonix project)

  24. Ich nutze nun in meiner Arbeit drei verschiedene Systeme. #GrapheneOS auf meine Geschäftssmartphone, #Tails meist nur zu Anschauenungszwecken und #Whonix für alles was mit q3.social zu tun hat.

    Das spannende ist, dass die Systeme primär für die Soziale Arbeit genutzt werden. #Streetwork #Flucht #aidshilfe #Migration #SozialeArbeit
    Normale Klienten mit speziellen Systemen betreut.

    Ich müsste eigentlich noch #nextcloud nennen.
