  2. TUTORIAL: Switch Between Tor Browser Security Levels (without restarting browser)

    Can even run all 3 security levels in separate windows (if wanted)

    Normally switching levels means full browser restart / reconnect

    Not having to restart browser means saving time, and not losing any tabs!

    With ready to use desktop shortcuts.

  3. Tre av det stora IT-företagen, big tech, Alphabet (Google), Apple och Microsoft dominerar webbläsarmarknaden i Norden totalt. Koncentrationen är mindre än när det gäller sökmotorer eller sociala medier där ett enda företag (Google) dominerar på sökmotorsidan och ett annat företag (Meta) på sociala medie-sidan.

    On this curve we clearly see the drop in contributions following the abandon by Mozilla and the incredible rise since.

    2023 was already a better year than 2020, and it was x3 in 2025 compared to Mozilla's period. A beautiful square-root shaped curve : √

    Ok it's not ready yet, but a lot of people are rushing toward this goal.

  7. If you want to help the people in #Iran to access the internet you could use #snowflake to help enter the #tornetwork
    My opinion is the easiest way to do so is to open this Website:
    embed-snowflake.torproject.org and activate the little slide on the left and poof people can use your Internet. Pretty easy no Installation or running an App, plain and simple Website.
    Do it now! And keep the site open as long as you want!

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

  13. 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.

  14. A lire comme ça, les alternatives à #Firefox, ça peut paraître simple, alors que ce n'est pas si évident, à l'installation, ni à l'utilisation / changement d'habitude. En cours d'essayage ici, l'usage de #IceCat et de #TorBrowser qui annoncent un certain niveau de respect des données personelles. Je n'ai pas le même niveau d'infos pour #Konqueror et #Chromium.
    Là je suis sur l'ordi pour les tester dans un usage courant, je n'ai pas encore testé les sites commerciaux, administratifs ou bancaires.

  15. 不知是否有人跟我一樣只用 Tor 瀏覽器訪問 z library ? 那你們使用的時候有沒有發現一個問題?

    如果想要連續下載好幾本比較大的 PDF,那麼第一本的下載速度還比較快(或者說比較正常),但從第二本開始就會變得特別慢,有時候根本無法下載完成。

    後來我發現有個辦法可以這個問題,就是利用 Tor 瀏覽器本身的「新建 Tor 線路」(new circuit)功能。每次在 z library 裡面打開一本書的頁面以後,就先點擊 URL 欄左邊的「Tor 線路」圖標,再點擊下拉界面的新建線路按鈕。然後使用新的線路下載這本書,下載速度就會非常理想。第三本、第四本、第五本,用同樣的方法就行。

    為什麼我堅持用 Tor 瀏覽器訪問 z library 呢?主要是因為 z library 的公網域名經常被幹掉,我不想花時間去尋找並確認新的公網域名。順便提醒大家:很多自稱 z library 的網站其實是李鬼,我有朋友被這種李鬼網站騙過錢。

  16. Here are some ways I've got off the social media and sites. Feel free to add to this:
    Home: NO ; use ; ; computers running
    Smartphone:
    Browsers: ;
    Chat (for now): ; ;
    Email (for now):
    Shopping (least secure for me): ; ; ; local ; sites. Many more but you get it, right?
    Always a work in progress. As it should be.
    Stay safe!

  17. You know how #RichardStallman #GNU laments #javascript but also how nothing works without it? gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-
    Alright, so say you torsocks lynx ( #KU ) #ProjectGutenberg. Alternately, you could use highest security #TorBrowser with #noscript. But have you tried #Vanguards #Whonix GW with #vlc ? There is a lot that can be done with vlc for media that wouldn't work in a tor browser (netscape-plus) with vanguards. You would think that there is more anonymity because more people use the more popular #browser / #terminal -plus method but there are trade-offs with functionality and less data leaking. Is less data leaking a form of fingerprint? @mokancan

    The real kicker for every person in #Australia who values their basic #privacy (ie. hiding their #IPAddress with #TorBrowser) is #MyGov is decrypted by #Akamai.

    Yes, a US multinational (spin-off of #Microsoft during the 1990s) is a Man-in-the-middle-attack-(#MITM)-as-a-Service, between you and intimate #health and #employment services.

    Oh and prior to the #covidCrisis the #landRegistries in most states were #privatised.

    Welcome to dystopia.

  22. The Digital Feudalism Counter Action firewall (and notifier) can be setup on all good linux distros.

    git.zzls.xyz/unsender/dfca

    Expose CloudGlare on the last remaining #computers that you still administer. For browsers, especially #TorBrowser, there's also an add-on called 'Block CloudFlare MITM Attack' (select the 'Only change icon color' option).

    ITS TOO LATE to start resisting, but resist and help others resist before its far, far, **far** too late.

  23. @doot @neil @Crell

    It is impossible to use Tor in #Australia to access #socialSecurity and #mediCare. If you try to visit humanservices.gov.au via #TorBrowser you will see how bad the situation is.

    People are going without basic social benefits.

    Strongly recommend #TorBrowser w highest Safety level and #uBlock added, as per how #TailOS provide Tor to #journalists. Great for browsing the #clearnet and onion sites. Put the #NoScript addon button in the topbar to easy enable js for trusted sites.

    For #I2P we recommend a #Firefox based browser that is hardened like TorBrowser. A good place to start is the spyware.neocities.org site, and the #ArchlinuxWiki on #hardening Firefox-based browsers.

  25. @shelldozer
    Its another drone-training website for Screw-gle.

    Its fine, we know #Brave is sub-optimal and to use #TorBrowser. As per #TailOS, we also know TorBrowser performs better whenever #uBlock add-on is used.

    We recommend implementing #TransparentTorification, including for #DNS ie. ones firewall should redirect all port 53 DNS requests to Tor's 5353 port. One may need to find creative ways to set the time, but it's better than not doing #torification.
    @lproven @anomalocaris

  26. The one type of website missing on the #I2P network is a #weather website.

    In #Australia, the #BOM is served by a #techGiant that is in the business of collecting people's data. They aggressively block people who use #TorBrowser.

    Can I2P come to the rescue?

    2/
    …without the need to enable JS (please see above hashtag for our previous writings on how this might work),
    2) Access to the #NoScript addon, allows enabling javascript on a per-domain basis as was the case in previous versions,
    3) Try lowering security to [Safer,Standard] Mode.
    b) Last we checked #TailsOS uses uBlock in #TorBrowser, why does the official not? We've tested it. Many sites work fine,
    c) Might 'Block CloudFlare MITMAttack (#BCMA)' addon be included in…2/3

  28. @Hamishcampbell
    We think #humaneCoding has to be about rejecting the monopolies and empowering small operators.

    We just boosted something about limiting C.A.G.E.M.A.F.I.A. if interested. Its called #DigitalFeudalismCounterAction and blocks the likes of Amazon, Cloudflare, Microsoft, Google etc. We have found it to be most beneficial.

    Those who need to access a site operated by the #technoFascists can still do so using #TorBrowser.

    Its really great.

  29. CW: Assange-exposed Goo'Jigsaw sets target on Europe

    After #suppressing so-called anti-#Ukraine content in #Poland, the #dotcon will now target #Germany via #advertising.

    > "Using #ads as a vehicle to counter (…) #disinformation is pretty novel," said #BethGoldberg, Head of research and development at #Jigsaw. "We’re excited about the results."

    Fedifrens, how might #vitality be drained by fake ads selling #narratives?

    FYI, #uBlock is on #TorBrowser by default in #TailOS.
