This is an old revision of the document!


This article was imported from the 2011 Insurgency Wiki backup, and sits here in its original crude format. It is in dire need of modernization and cleanup.

Staying Anonymous

As the name would suggest, Anonymity is one of the most relevant and important things any Anon should know about. Your 7 proxies will prevent you from being banned from your favourite chatroom, your ISP cutting off your connection for all that CP you look at, and the police coming for a v&.

Maintaining Anonymity can be divided into two categories- Interweb and IRL

Interweb Anonymity

Make sure your PC is clean

  • Get Spybot Search & Destroy and update the fucker. http://www.safer-networking.org/ Also run immunize after to make sure your shit doesnt come back.
  • use spywareblaster, update & enable all protection - http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html
  • Malwarebytes is also decent - http://www.malwarebytes.org/
  • Get a fucking antivirus program. Free ones are ok, I usually use a cracked copy of symantec corporate edition tho. Shit doenst use as much resources and itll usually never expire.
  • run windows updates. Yeah those 500 unpatched security holes you got in your outdated shit is bad. Or simply don't use Windows - www.ubuntu.com
  • Also fucking update your adobe shit for the love of god. adobe version check if thats not at the latest version your asking for an assraeping.

Browsers

Dont use IE. Use firefox. You can test how anonymous your browser is here

Firefox now has GeoLocation abilities. Turn that garbage off.

In the URL bar type in - about:config Find the setting geo.enabled Disable that crap

Extensions

  • BetterPrivacy - know all that porn you fap to? yeah even if you wipe cookies adobe keeps shit, its called a supercookie. This kills those fuckers - Download
  • TACO - Opts out of tracking on websites. Just disable the gay popup - TACO
  • HTTPSEverywhere - eff made that shit, its good. It forces SSL encryption on major sites so noone else can intercept your shit. As a bonus when you use SSL referrer information gets stripped so in cases like using google with SSL pages cannot tell what you typed in to get there Download

Heres some XML definitions for it, go to start → run → %APPDATA% → Mozilla → firefox → profile → HTTPSEVERYWHEREUSERRULES. In there right click make a new text document, one for each of these and rename it to RULENAME.XML. DONT COPY THE MOTHERFUCKING ———s, just whats between them

<ruleset name="isohunt">
  <target host="isohunt.com"/>
  <target host="www.isohunt.com"/>
  <rule from="^http://(www\.)?isohunt\.com/" to="https://isohunt.com/"/>
</ruleset>
<ruleset name="thepiratebay">
  <target host="thepiratebay.org"/>
  <target host="www.thepiratebay.org"/>
  <rule from="^http://(www\.)?thepiratebay\.org/" to="https://thepiratebay.org/"/>
</ruleset>
<ruleset name="erowid">
  <target host="erowid.org"/>
  <target host="www.erowid.org"/>
  <rule from="^http://(www\.)?erowid\.org/" to="https://erowid.org/"/>
</ruleset>

HTTPSEverywhere list of XML files here

Using the FireFox addon NoScript will make it easier to add new HTTPS rules if you don't like or understand XML. Once you've installed NoScript go to Add-ons Manager»Options»Advanced»HTTPS»Behavior and type in websites in a list format. Just type the domain without the frills…
