We need more than that.

There is a Devuan based distro (systemd not there, more hardening and
more free with binary blobs removed), version of tails with the name of
heads.  Don't know when it will be ready, but it is what we need.

Almost all my traffic has been going over the Tor network, even sites
like facebook (yes, shudder), but they have a .onion address, privoxy
also has a .onion address.  Devuan can be updated via .onion too, but I
haven't set that up yet.

Make sure you use socks5 proxy with remote DNS resolution.  Also, make
sure you use https whenever that is possible or .onion resources when
they are available (with or without https).

FB:
https://facebookcorewwwi.onion

Privoxy:
http://jvauzb4sb3bwlsnc.onion/

Pro Publica (Journalism in the Public Interest)
www.propub3r6espa33w.onion

https://www.propub3r6espa33w.onion/nerds/item/a-more-secure-and-anonymous-propublica-using-tor-hidden-services


DuckDuckGo via .onion
https://3g2upl4pq6kufc4m.onion


torproject resources that should be trustable:
http://yz7lpwfhhzcdyc5y.onion/


When a site uses https and a .onion address, like FB and propublica have
done, you get even more assurance that the site is legitimate; howver,
even .onion site browsing is fully encrypted without https.

Cheers

This is a fantastic resource! I didn't know there was ongoing blocking. Recently
I had to change my DNS server away from Telstra given it was blocking Instagram
images.
