Os Cangaceiros was a group of delinquents caught up in the spirit of the French insurrection of 1968 who refused to let that spirit die. With nothing but contempt for the self-sacrificial ideology practiced by “specialists in armed struggle”, this uncontrollable band of social rebels wreaked havoc on the French state—attacking infrastructures of oppression, supporting popular revolts, stealing and releasing secret blueprints for high-tech prisons, raiding the offices of corporate collaborators, and creating their lives in complete opposition to the world based on work.

The Hitchhiker’s Guide to Online Anonymity

💡 TLDR:
This is an open-source non-profit detailed and maintained guide on online anonymity (in addition to Privacy/Security). I've been writing/updating it for the past months. It covers Windows/Linux/MacOS/Whonix/TAILS/Qubes OS and more. It's written with hope for activists, journalists, scientists, lawyers, whistle-blowers, and good people being oppressed/censored anywhere!

The whole guide is backed up by many external references (over 500 external references, many of them academic) and is not sponsored by any commercial entity.

The guide is presented in a "book format" (Online ,or PDF with Light and Dark themes) and is quite a long read with over 180 pages of information (not counting the many 500+ external references). But there are ways you can read some parts and not others depending on your interest (and this is also explained in the introduction).

Marco Polo describes a bridge, stone by stone.

"But which is the stone that supports the bridge?" Kublai Khan asks.

"The bridge is not supported by one stone or another," Marco answers, "but by the line of the arch that they form."

Kublai Khan remains silent, reflecting. Then he adds: "Why do you speak to me of the stones? It is only the arch that matters to me."

Polo answers: "Without stones there is no arch."

"Geofence warrants are also known as “reverse-location” warrants, since they seek to identify people of interest who were in the near vicinity at the time a crime was committed. [...] According to the data, Google received 982 geofence warrants in 2018, 8,396 in 2019 and 11,554 in 2020. [...] The data shows that the vast majority of geofence warrants are obtained by local and state authorities, with federal law enforcement accounting for just 4% of all geofence warrants"
