the fucking end.

Win 10 on all desktops. Access Linux devices via command line only. Linux on everything else.

You're so clueless OP...

Win 7 or any version after is pointless if you don't be cautious and disable updates, remove telemetry updates, have a hardware firewall (most preferably a OpenWRT modem).

Linux in dualboot is fucking pointless.
You end up using your storage space for something that you aren't really gonna use.
Just think about it: once you boot your PC you have two option: you either boot windows or Linux/BSD/Hackingtosh and then if you want to change you boot it up again and cmon, you're not going to do that. Once you need to do something on Linux that you could do already on windows you're just going to boot windows instead of using wine on linux.

And if you could just use wine for your stuff why wouldn't you just stick to linux.


>desktop: Debian with Gnome or XFCE
>mobile: Android device with at least 800 megs of ram and preferably a Motorola device
or you could buy a Iphone and avoid updating it and maybe jailbreak it as well if you wish
>laptop: old? low powered? Arch not? Debian

Also, I just wish you faggots stopped recommending less popular distros.
This is pointless and a waste of time for everyone.

If anyone is serious about avoiding corporate and government spying, they aren't using Windows, period.

Qubes is the best compromise between convenience and security for normies. There's a 45 minute learning curve, but it's well worth the time invested.

A compromised OS won't do jack shit to you if it's not connected to a network or another computer/device (of course this goes beyond wired and wifi connections). Removing certain windows updates even if "pointless" helps improving windows performance, you can easily go down to <200megs of ram usage on windows 7 by doing so.

If any CIA nigger or company wants to get you they are certainly going to exploit you at the web browser level.
Other than that they will invade your home to restrain you from your storage devices and by that point you're already fucked.

nice fucking bait retard

What software did your use to encrypt your dual boot?

>>58155048

It's not bait. Windows is a horrible system for security. There's not even an attempt to sandbox applications and the corporation deliberately spies on users.

You can go out of your way to mitigate some of the corporate spying, but the source code is hidden from everyone except the NSA and Israeli intelligence.

>>58155098
Doesn't matter if you have a hardware firewall that blocks communication to undesirable IPs
>what if the OS is updated
If it can't obtain data from servers it won't download updates
>what if they use IP spoofing and try to communicate to your machine trough that and maybe even update it?
Again, if you're using a hardware firewall you can get around that with security measures and since it's free (as in 100% open source) you know what's going on.

>>58155407 (You)

>>58155241

That means figuring out every "undesirable" IP and hoping they don't use an unlisted IP or change IPs frequently. It's a terrible solution to a flawed operating system.

Wow man, this really changed my opinion on Macs. I'm going to throw away all my Macintoshes right now because I can't stand this anymore! Why can't Mac OS X just start to be gooder? It can't because things like this. Fucking Steve Jobs and his bulllshit. I can't believe an operating system like this exists. I'm going back to Linux right now and show all the people how much gooder Linux is than Macintosh OS X. Bullshit ass nigger bitches at Apple, can't even do anything right for once. When will they learn that Linux is more gooder than Mac? This is why no one should even buy a Mac anyways, because they're all garbage pieces of shit that just don't work at all, EVER! Like what the fuck man? I can't even use it because it's just a broken, unfinished piece of shit that Apple excreted out of their stupid asses. "Hey guys! Let's excrete this shitting OS called Macintosh OS X and then let everyone use it!" Little do they know, that it is a piece of shit ass. Why would anyone use this???? Like holy fuck this makes me want to die and then take a piece of shit and then stick it down my penis until I die. Fucking pieces of shit at Apple.
Thank you for reading my blog post.
