Here's my 2 cents ramble.
So I'm trying to prepare a simple but complete todo list.
This reminds me of a joke: I've read your manuscript and it was original and
clever. However, the parts that were original were not clever and the parts
that were clever were not original! I.e. you won't
/Calinou/ Ah, true. I suppose that playing only through text input
(coordinates) and Ajax could be a possibility, but not as user friendly.
Though it could help memorize the coordinates. I'd love such a web app. Also
I love the Lichess no registration/ads/plugins required policy. It could
Chromium uses 3-clause BSD indeed. Some files appear to lack license headers
though (according to Wikipedia, they're called “unlicensed files”).
I occasionally play (online chess without js would be nice).
I doubt you want that in 2015 (it's possible, but really inconvenient; it
would probably require a page reload at each move). I'll suggest using
Lichess but it uses a non-free JavaScript library (Highcharts) for drawing
graphs.
So what's you're overall privacy strategy, everyone ?
I'm still not writing from my free machine since I want to configure it
properly.
Everyday I read about some new thing to configure (like the default Trisquel
DNS server being google's).
So I'm trying to prepare a simple but complete todo
Banana Magique - I know for sure it stopped working with the pont release of
Trisquel 6. Do you know what kernel used the point release 6.0.1? I guess
that was the first kernel to crap out the ati cards..
cheers!
Wow, looks like ubuntu includes chromium in their universe repo [community
maintained open source software]. Yet if we look at the copyright file [1]
for the latest release, there is plenty of files with License: UNKNOWN and
files supposedly under some variant of BSD with Copyright: UNKNOWN.
/lembas/ I get the joke (love it also), yet indeed things change and in some
cases some rules do not apply, though maybe there are some rough
principles/outlines regarding setting up a libre system.
For example,

If you can, try contacting ioerror, Jacob Appelbaum, I remember him saying he

/Mangy Dog/ I'm not sure I get this one. Icecat (a fox) on Trisquel (the

Trisquel 6.0.1 has linux-image-3.2.0-60-generic:

However, it would be very strange that a security update (the number 60 in
the version above) created the problem. Are you sure Trisquel 6 got the

Privacy and anonymity are not the same. If you want privacy having a 100%
free OS and a VPN (not trusting external repos, compiling any external
application by yourself, setting your browser in a proper manner, not using
idiotic nonsense like say facebook) should do it.
If you want
look on the tor website, i think there’s a howto on there.

I have said this many times before and I will say it again. Apart from the

I do think that part of this is purely down to the Free software nature of

Banana Magique - I didn't try the point release personally but I have been
reading a lot of posts about this topic here on the Trisquel website and
several users were writing about the fact that ATI worked great with 6 but
not with 6.1 and 7..
Very nice feature that default has blind accessibility.
I've been using ivpn.net, have been pretty satisfied with their service. I
would recommend using a VPN that is outside the US in a privacy friendly
jurisdiction.

I mean, you have to consider what a reputable VPN company has to lose-- if
someone finds out that logs are being sold then that company's reputation
goes down the toilet, as well as their business.
It's certainly possible that they would sell your logs, but I don't think
they'd take such a

/Mangy Dog/ Thanks, I'm learning a lot.
Right now I'm reading the European Data Retention document, it's a long read

But from the first few pages, it seems fair enough.
I suppose that to use Tor properly, I better leave it as it is (at least not
add plugins and stuff).
As for the

/Magic Banana/ Oh that's good to hear (about the DNS), thanks.
Yes, it blocked some legitimate content, but that's no big deal. It will
force me to learn more about Tor.
So Tails is essentially worthless, besides short-term use (which is what it's
designed for I think). Interesting.

Hit enter to toggle that tunable and powertop shows you what it does when it

yeah, that was my feeling too, this is why I was interested in setting up my
own VPN server, though it takes more skill. I stumble upon a good article
which backs up what you wrote, and which explained that using Tor first, then
connecting to a VPN made that a moot point.

As SuperTramp83 says there is a difference between privacy and achieving
anonymity.

Ah ok, I got it ;)
Yeah, it seems that anonymity is only for specific situations. Most likely
not worth the effort for the way I use the web. But worth it for true
journalism.
In essence, my strategy as a basic user would be to focus on security and
privacy.
So, private browsing/anonymity
Regardless, your browser is still sending out info that can be tracked
(besides cookies); see: https://panopticlick.eff.org/
Ruben's point was that if you did everything right to avoid browser
fingerprinting, that's when you'd REALLY stand out from the crowd.
the best advice: get out from internet.
Effectively this could have been an IRC discussion :)

I agree with JadeCtrl,
some VPN services are dubious but others have a clear policy if they were to
not respect their engagements they would be liable and
I think the point is that you try so hard to protect yourself that in the end
you stand out and are more easily caught.
Ruben makes exactly this point in his 2015 Libre Planet presentation on
IceCat. Unfortunately privacy/security/anonymity need to be the default for
users, en masse, so
I see. Then what are the possible answers?
Not being anonymous makes one visible (but without much access to it's online
activity).
Using Tor properly makes one anonymous.
My goal is to to keep my online activity to myself, even if it's possible to
know that I visit such and such website.
The repository of Battle of Wesnoth in Trisquel 7 is version 1.10 but the
most recent version is 1.12.2. When will the repositories being updated? It
seems that other repositories are out of date as well.
