Lots of people on a technology chan board I frequent recommend using Gentoo or Slackware, but there is a learning curve to use those. |

It is these corporations that need to have set limitations and reforms. They worked for you, until 9/11 and the endless war on terror turned on you, a constant state of emergency is what enpowers them, over you. Stand as one. No fear. Im 23 and if I can see this it means the younger generations are waking up. 3 years ago I was blind... it is definately been a fast wake up call so far.

Thanks for that, and I'll have to switch from Ubuntu then clearly. Added. If a signal can be sent to an artifical limb and a signal can be sent back to the brain to process and tell you the density of an object, furthermore this to be shown on 60 minutes to the public, you have to question what technology is out there recording your brain signals and the ability to destiguish the data and sort or catagorize it in some form. It does not end in the material things we use day to day. This goes much further, it is how we 'think' not what we do anymore. Quoting: 7.83Hz As much as I don't doubt that it /MAY/ be possible, but on a mass scale for all humans? I doubt it, just the sheer storage for peoples every thought would be incredible, although in the future you may be right. Also while Tor is safe many forum/chat websites block them such as GLP, due to people using Tor to troll and spam. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 41716799 Can't believe I forgot Tor, added as well. I have a few more that you could do op. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 41798027 Make all chips read only (cd"ROM",nic eeprom, bios etc) Boot-on cd, move downloads to sd-ram (which has r/w switch) Use null-modem and custom program for file transfer. hehehe I actually really like the idea of setting things to Read only, thanks for that. |

The answer lies in the real world when we realize the only way to end this problem is to physically remove these scumbags. We have become so comfortable in our daily lives that everyone is now afraid to die to secure freedom for future Americans. Fwiw i was told the Tor browser was developed by the Navy so I stopped using it. Though there may be many ways to try and procure your anonymity online,the best way to end these liers reign would be to unite in the real world and physically arrest these oppressors.

I completely agree, the best way to solve the problem would be to remove the ones who are doing this. I personally feel that is largely is too late to doing anything but we need to try. The general population needs to get on board, and stop their governments. We need countries ran by people, for the people and only the people. We need to remove the monetised system, to remove the power. One day perhaps. Everything just seems to be at bursting point. |

Yes if everyone flooded the system with disinformation, then their filters wouldn't work, but they can change them, they'll know. All I can assume that will actually do, is just get you heavily monitored and then fucked for some simple crime. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32609505 I wouldn't consider it over the top, it's a pattern of number and letters i slowly memorised.

Don't get my wrong I know this only helps if they actually come for my computer. I suppose my best form of prevention, is literally not saying anything I do not wish anyone to know, unless I'm speaking to them in a way that cannot be monitored |
