Don't know when it will be ready, but it is what we need. Heads is a trusted bootloading process [0], not a competing distribution to Tails. It's more of a complementary block.

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.

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.

Is there somewhere a list/descriptions of the blocked sites? (perchance, some reasons for blocking each of them?)
