Hello /adv/. Currently running a VPN (private internet access)

Uhh... Use Tails?

Just to be precise: You're not anonymous with your setup. You just erased *some* (because I actually don't know the amount of information is spread while a person is using a browser) of your data which where created while using your browser. That means, only the data which were on your harddrive are deleted, but if someone else logged the data of a webpage which you have visited, it's still there, as long as the person of the webpage deleted it.
For example: If you illegally share something in file sharing network and some company founds out and wants to sue you, they don't even need your data. They could also have logged on their site and have data needed data.

So, a VPN can help you, as long as you can trust the company which offers the service. using Tails/Tor can also help to obfuscate your tracks. You can look into https://www.privacytools.io/ but it seems like you already have done a good job and this site will not offer much to you current setup. https://prism-break.org/en/ offers some more tips.

What in god's tits could you be doing that warrants your secrecy?

Not OP, but what in god's tits gives you the right to ask him? I mean, you sound oppressive, almost imply something bad. It can totally be that but if he wants to have his secrecy then it's totally okay.

You sure are inferring a lot of things for an innocent person.
>muh oppression
fuck you

I'm just curious, because it's not like the kid's buying drugs off the darknet or anything.

Using the internet. Legal system is full of tech-incompetent morons who will buy a lawyer's rhetoric.

What does a lawyer's rhetoric have to do with anything?

Being convicted of a felony?

If you really want a hypothetical, here's a weak one because I'm lazy: surprise illegal image posted on 4chan in browser cache being written to swap space and found with ~undeletion~ tools or more advanced disk analysis.

>using duckduckgo
its not private
use startpage (https://www.startpage.com/)
>TOR + TAILS
And for super privacy, you MUST disable pretty much every extension - from personal experience, anything good on the internet is actually a security risk.
Even TOR can be broken, just not easily.

Also, I would like to say that if the NSA really wants you, bad - then nowhere is safe. They WILL find you.

Not being paranoid here, just realistic.
