      Having the stick on a keyring, is a unnecessary risk.
      You most likely have other items attached on the ring that can tie you to the stick. You also can’t easily throw it away in case of emergency.

    A genuine, aboveboard use for Tails is to store an airgapped master GPG key.
    99% of the use of your keypair is mundane stuff like encryption and SSH auth. The remaining 1%, stuff like generating revocation certificates, signing new keys, etc. is extremely dangerous in the wrong hands: if an adversary gets this power, not only can he decrypt your past messages and impersonate you, he can generate a new key, sign it, and issue a new revocation cert---carring on all your previous correspondence with the new key, without you even able to see what he's doing.
    So, people have thought: what if we separate the functionality, and only access the spooky stuff in a hyper-secure, airgapped (preferrably Faraday-caged), schizophrenic environment? This is exactly what people do, using the encrypted persistent filesystem of Tails to store a master key, from which mundane subkeys can be exported (offline, via a storage medium) to a less secure working environment. Tails goes to great lengths to ensure that data in memory doesn't persist after shutdown, which is exactly what you want here. I'm working with this setup, except with another LiveUSB distro since I trust the relatively-less-audited distro more than the Intel Management Engine.

    Also, ALWAYS use Bridged mode inside Tor Browser, this way your ISP won't know that you're connecting to the Onion services, since the Bridged mode is supposed to bypass any restrictions in countries where Tor is banned. Even if it's not banned inside your country, always use it.

    • @wraithje
      @wraithje 7 месяцев назад

      Bridge relays are Tor relays that are not listed in the public Tor directory.
      That means that ISPs or governments trying to block access to the Tor network can't simply block all bridges. Bridges are useful for Tor users under oppressive regimes, and for people who want an extra layer of security because they're worried somebody will recognize that they are contacting a public Tor relay IP address.@@nettlex

      @@platinumsun4632 Simply using a searching engine to look up Tails on the web apparently triggers the NSA XKeyscore system.
      Source Wikipedia :
      In 2014 Das Erste reported that the NSA's XKeyscore surveillance system sets threat definitions for people who search for Tails using a search engine or visit the Tails website. A comment in XKeyscore's source code calls Tails "a comsec mechanism advocated by extremists on extremist forums".[22][23]
      In the same year, Der Spiegel published slides from an internal National Security Agency presentation dating to June 2012, in which the NSA deemed Tails on its own as a "major threat" to its mission and in conjunction with other privacy tools as "catastrophic".[24][25]
      In 2017, the FBI used malicious code developed by Facebook, identifying sexual extortionist and Tails user Buster Hernandez through a zero-day vulnerability in the default video player. The exploit was never explained to or discovered by the Tails developers, but it is believed that the vulnerability was patched in a later release of Tails. Hernandez had eluded authorities for a long time; the FBI and Facebook had searched for him with no success, and resorted to developing the custom hacking tool.

    I recommend a micro sd card and mini reader. It is much smaller, easier to conceal/dispose/destroy. I recommend the cheap Chinese ones that are notorious for corrupting after a few months, you can get a 3 pack of 16gb for like $10. If you go this route, and use it as a daily driver, remove any storage media/hard drives from your laptop for extra peace of mind that once a card is out, the data is gone.

    The reason there was no chat feature in onionshare is because the apt repository only goes up to onionshare 2.2, and the chat feature was added in 2.4 I think. Also, the current version of onionshare is 2.6. Unfortunately, the newest versions of onionshare are only available in flat pack, snap craft, or compiling from source (you can also find them in the aur and gentoo repositories but that’s not natively for tails). When in the configuration menu for tails, turn privileged account on, then you’ll be able to make the upgrade (or download other software you want.)

      There are lots of sensationalist rumors and very little substantive evidence about the use of IME or PSP for "spying". First of all, most of the vulnerabilities that have been found in these systems are not exploitable remotely. And the one known vulnerability that was only worked on machines that had remote management (AMT) enabled, which is typically not the case for retail computers. It also wouldn't work if the computer is unreachable from the Internet because it's behind a NAT router and/or firewall (which should always be the case if possible).
      Second, the NSA can't do magic and transmit data through thin air. If they were spying and exfiltrating information via IME/PSP, you would be able to see the packet flow on your network using packet capture tools.
