Yes, private. Of course. But, just hypothetically, how will people be able to click on my private diary, which I emphasize is private, and is most assuredly not clickbait, so that they can see WHAT HAPPENS NEXT in my private diary?

I worry about private companies far less than I worry about government spooks.
We live in 1984, in terms of privacy.
Thanks
My laptop has window and Linux installed in a dual boot configuration.
Sometimes I use Windows for work, but when it comes to personal surfing, banking or Business I use Linux.
Truthfully Linux is no harder to use than Windows.
Bttt.

For example, I named my diary !!!BOMBSHELL!!!
Then I posted to Facebook telling people that they
wouldn't believe what I was going to put in my diary.
TOR browser is liek a big red flag for gubmint officials- They CAN track you when using TOR- (There’s a yuotube video proving it- ) So basically you are just attractign more sophisticated surveillance folks when you wave the TOR flag o nthje net
for receivign emails only- mailinator.com- totally temporary- and no sign up needed- when you need to give a site an addy- just type soemthign you will remember, like “Bobsyeruncle@mailinator.com” Then simply go to mailinator.com and type bobsyeruncle in the search bar- and htere’s the email- easy peasy
They delete after a certain number of hours- and you can manually delete too if you need to get rid of say something like login info for new site-

The simple use of VPN + Tor + Tails + Proton Email , all free shy of maybe your choice of a VPN are good security “IF USED PROPERLY”.......
My 2 cents .....Stay Safe !!
#9 virtual machines
I’d like to be able to do this on Ubuntu, but could never figure out how to do it.
Any good tutorials?
I tried using the one in the Ubuntu help site, but no luck...
The law should be that ISPs can't keep logs.
As for VPNs, they are ISPs once removed.
If you send a nastygram or out an archive of some rat's email via a VPN, you can't be caught unless both the VPN and the ISP cooperate.
It starts with where you went. They'll have the IP address to which you uploaded.
The next step in any investigation will be to get the owner of that IP address to cough up. If they are an honest VPN, they will not have a record. If they are an honest ISP, they will not have a record.
If they are a compromised ISP, game over. You are unmasked!
If they are a compromised VPN, they will cough up which incoming IP originated the connection. Then the process moves to the ISP of the originating connection. Which of their subscribers had that IP address at that time?
Do you trust Comcast? Do you trust Verizon?
Oracle Virtualbox is extremely easy to use (IMHO).
You can install the version that's on the Software Manager (which is just point and click as you know) or you can get the latest version (5.1.x) by using a terminal (instructions here.
There are a couple of key things that I've found that help:
Hope that helps.
Give “Ghostery” a try .... its free. Blocks google and other search engine analytics. Duck Duck Go (DDG) does not track or sponsor trackers . Now that said the new threat is our ISP selling our data.
Wonder why my ISP selling my personal legal use of a “product” I pay for is any different than my doctor or insurance company violating the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or a Lawyer Client Confidentially privilege .....?
GOP-E ..... doom on em !
That's a really good point.
What you want to look for is a VPN provider who has a "no logs" policy.
Or if you really want to go full bore, you can create your own personal VPN provider through openvpn.net. (Part of this is creating a virtual machine in the cloud, loading the openvpn server software on that virtual machine, and then connecting to the Internet via that virtual machine)
(Of course, that assumes that the cloud provider -- AWS, Rackspace, or whoever doesn't track what the activity your virtual server has either)

I occasionally use Private browsing with Safari on my mac. It lets me into paid sites after I have used up my free uses.
I also use DuckDuckGo as my browser.
How safe am i?
