You know we're in war. You know your enemy wants to find out who you are

DON'T LET THEM

Key things to remember on GA.W:

• Stay Anon & don't go doxxing yourself.

• Don't reveal your identity. We don't know, or care who you are, just what you bring to this battlefield.

• Don't give out your personal information in private messages, posts, or comments.

• Examine your post and comment history and delete anything that breaks your anonymity today.

Key things about using the internet

• Don't reveal your real IP address - use VPN's, or tor.

• Use temporary email accounts, and temporary sms numbers.

• Create personas - Be Jim Bob the potato farmer from Boise, Idaho from 07 hundred to 14 hundred, then prefecture Philippe Petit from Paris, France from 14 hundred to 21 hundred. Research their lives, record their lives so you can refer back to them and make them real to anyone who wants to believe.

• Use browsers or tools so scripts on the web can't identify you.

• Don't let any site trick you into thinking a new security is for 'your safety' and they require your personal details. Control that yourself with password safes, and don't hand it over.

• Never link your accounts to one another, and keep separation.

• Remember cell numbers are tracking codes - give them away only if you want to be tracked!

Tools to use

Operating Systems

Open sourced BSD or Linux based distributions, even privacy based live disks like tails, are much better than big-tech OS's like Google/Apple/Microsoft-based OS's

Web Browsers

Same rule applies here: big tech = bad (no Edge/Chrome/Firefox), go for open sourced, like chromium, mullvad, or Tor browsers. If you can't use those, then try use script blocker extensions you trust, like uBlock or NoScript, and learn how to block all the scripts you can so you're not leaking information. Test your browser at sites like:

https://ipleak.org/ , https://ipleak.net/ , https://www.expressvpn.com/dns-leak-test , https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 , https://ipx.ac/run , https://dnsleaktest.com/ , https://browserleaks.com/webrtc , https://www.expressvpn.com/webrtc-leak-test , https://test-ipv6.com/ , https://www.perfect-privacy.com/en/tests/check-ip

See what is being revealed by your web browser, and if you see something you don't like, work to harden it so you aren't providing more information you need to

VPNs

VPN's are worth the money you pay for them. They act as your ISP, and will permit you to use many locations around the world. This protects the IP you are given by your ISP and keeps you safe to a degree, provided your VPN is trust worthy.

TOR

The TOR network is a network of many privacy minded users, and it lets you hide your IP, and come out of random nodes from all around the world and use the internet. You'll have to prepare yourself for a lesser experience though, and mostly search and post on sites like GA.W. If you attempt to access your normal online accounts at big tech you may be marked, so use throw-away accounts.

Passwords

Use a password manager like https://keepass.info that stores your info in a locally encrypted file. Remember: using online 'cloud' password storage tools is you saying "I am ok with someone else knowing my secret information". The nice thing about these password managers is it can help you keep track of multiple ID's (like Jim Bob and Philippe Petit), and you can build 100's and 1000's of personas with intricate details of their fake lives, which you can store and never forget.

Identities

Always remember to follow the Key things about using the internet section when using the internet, and create new identities for sites you can use. For example, connect via VPN/TOR, go to a site you want to create an account in. Head over to to generate a new temporary email, then sign up at the site with that email, but leave the mail window open. After you get signed in verify the account with the same window you have opened, your account will be verified. If the site requires SMS you may not be able to proceed unless you get lucky with a a temp sms site. But don't waste too much time working around SMS, just don't ever give up and decide to give your own SMS #. After you sign in you may want to add a profile picture to make yourself look like a real person, like this person, who does not exist, which you can refresh many times until you get a picture that you feel matches the identity you created. Don't forget to save this information to your password file!

Cell Phones

That SIM card in your cell phone is a tracking device that tells everyone where you are right now. Your best bet is to remove your SIM and always treat that device like an enemy (The same with "Alexa" or "Google" or anything with a microphone hooked up to the internet: VOICE ID IS A REAL THING)

Your best bet is to also use VPN and TOR on your phone, and only use it when connected via WI-FI.

It may be best to use 2 phones.. one for you, and the other for your personas. Keep them separate, so you stay safe!

Good luck staying anon
