This topic was written in order to educate the audience of the forum and to ensure the anonymity in the network. Original thread Perhaps I'll start with the prehistory. I have been using the Internet for a long time , when spam with the goods I was looking for not so long ago began to pour into my inbox — I tolerated it.
When advertising on sites was based on my recent search, I also endured.
I recently realized that all my traffic was monitored. Such a news disturbed me, and I began to look for a way out of this unpleasant situation. The fact is that, there is always a risk that traffic will be intercepted, analyzed and, as a result, my private keys will be stolen and my personal data will be used against me. This really annoys.
Or for example, here is a
situation which has happened to our forum member
Vadi2323, because it is not pleasant when some kind of FSB employee rummages in your mail and hacks your account. Now there is time when some kind of of FSB employee can knock on your door because you have exchanged bitcoins with a person cought in money loundering, or when had changed cryptocurrecy to dollars for bestchange, the dollars stolen from credit card were sent to you, and now you are a defendant.
Therefore, security in the network is a very important thing, and with constant use of cryptocurrency so much the more! I believe that this is the first thing that costs to take care of when buying
BTC!
In conclusion, having visited many sites and forums, having re-read the pile of articles, I gained IT
Operating System Tails..
Tails (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) is a LiveCD Linux distribution based on the Debian Operating System (formerly, the distribution was called Amnesia and was based on the Incognito OS).
All outgoing connections go through the anonymous Tor network, and all non-anonymous connections are blocked. Tor encrypts traffic, which means that the provider will not be able to find out which sites you have visited, nor will the server know your real IP address. Also, Tails does not leave traces on the hard disk — it runs in RAM, before shutting down, the RAM is erased using sdmem so that no one can restore its contents from the recently turned off computer, so there are no traces on the main OS after turning off the computer. It is better to install the operating system on a USB flash drive (if something happens, you can always start formatting with a hammer on the drive).
System requirements total 1 gigabyte of RAM and the ability to run from a disk, flash drive or SD card.
Link to the official website where you can download Tails and see the instructions.
P.S. By the way, I met the information that the well-known Edward Snowden made the journalist
Glenn Greenwald (who handed over the secret documents to the NSA) use Tails.
