Be careful with the personal information you post here

[Dr Iron Arc]

Feel many are grief stricken ppl with nowhere else to direct feelings. Personally have empathy for them. Not mean agree with mission however.

I can understand that level of grief and I don't mean to condemn anyone who feels anger but up to a point that many of the members of a certain group have reached already, their behavior has become inexcusable especially since their actions will potentially drive even more people to despair if their mission actually succeeds.

Not unless you're doing anything illegal which SS isn't, at least not in the US. Tough luck if you're in China or North Korea though.

Also does anyone else find it funny that Tik Tok shows up in the image search results? I wonder if there's a pro-choice community there lol. If there was it would probably end up being more pro-suicide than we'll ever be so maybe the FT26ers should focus all their efforts there if they want to have any real impact.

Be VERY careful about the personal information you post here. We are aware of people registering to attempt to "save" other members, some are even law enforcement. They don't have a problem with registering if they think what they're doing is the "right" thing and they will not hesitate to contact law enforcement if they think you are in danger. Make sure that you put your online privacy first in these situations. I have read numerous threads of people getting visited by police and detectives and that is something that I don't want to h

We have had discussions before on this subject and we now realize that pictures posted on here still have EXIF data attached on here (before we upgraded, they didn't)

Use an EXIF remover if you're posting images of any sort before uploading them. I will be working to find a solution where EXIF data can be stripped from images as they are uploaded if that's possible.

The below section from our rules outlines what you can do to help protect your privacy to the greatest extent possible:

My privacy is essential to me. Do you have any tips for me?

• Don't post personal information (name, address, phone, email, pictures, etc).
• Use a unique username for every website you use.
• Use a proxy/VPN once you are registered.
• Tweak your preferences and privacy options to your liking here.
• Use a secure or disposable email provider.

Privacy is very important to me. More tips?

• Learn the difference between being careful and being paranoid.
• Avoid social media and delete your profiles.
• Search yourself or reverse search your pictures and delete everything that comes up.
• Don't use Google (DuckDuckGo and Startpage are good alternatives).
• Change your DNS to a privacy-first DNSs. Cloudflare is a fast and decent alternative.
• Use Firefox, Waterfox, Brave, or Opera. Never Chrome.
• Set your browser to delete browsing data on close or use Tor.
• Learn how to make a good password and never use the same password twice.
• The websites you registered accounts on five years ago and don't use anymore? Log in and delete them.
• Don't put your name in your email (e.g., jamesturner@example.com).
• Avoid using Windows if possible, especially Windows 10 - it's a privacy nightmare. We know this is hard to avoid.
• Malwarebytes is a decent antivirus, run it manually every week or two (you have to pay for automatic checks).
• Learn how to manage your firewall in the OS of your choice.
• Learn about EXIF in pictures, how they store identifiable information, and learn how to erase it.

I do not understand most of this, never have, it is very scary.

Fucking pigs. I hate cops. If any cops are on here reading this, go fuck yourselves you god damn pigs.

I fucking couldn't agree more and I think it needs said louder. Power tripping tyrants, every one of them. If there is a cop reading this, do us all a favor and go find a respectable job doing something that matters. Only people that say different are the ones that have a pig in the family. People are so brainwashed thinking cops are here to protect and serve. They are manipulative pieces of lying shit. Everything they say is to get you to incriminate yourself. Also worth mentioning, I've never been arrested or had a run in with the cops, but I hate them with a passion.

A lot of good tips here but some seem a bit much like I doubt anyone is using tools sophisticated enough to find out who you are because your using Chrome or Windows 10

It really isn't as difficult as you might be thinking. Chrome is by google and google makes its $$ by tracking everything you do. Hell, it was just a few months ago that they released an emergency update due to an easy to exploit flaw. A free copy of linux called Kali has all the tools you need to hack whatever you want. It couldn't be easier to make a malicious page or create a man in the middle attack. Making a page and get the person to click the link isn't that difficult with kali. All free, pre-installed, and open source. That said, Linux is what you want to be using if you really want to be secure. They are just about all free and a few that are built for people coming from windows like Mint

 

[...]

police in the uk don't even bother to show up to your house if you report a burglary these days, they sure as shit aren't gonna waste resources on patrolling a website for suicidal people and track them down and show up to their houses

 

[pphelpme]

Any chance all this information could please be collected into a resource page? It's pretty overwhelming for me as a novice person to keep track of.

It sounds like a privacy tab in safari is for crap. That's what I've been using. I only access this in my phone but that also sounds for crap. Argh so complicated!!

ACAB?

Urban Dictionary: ACAB

1. ACAB (A.C.A.B). All Coppers Are Bastards / All Cops Are Bastards. Origionally used by strikers in the UK, spread to prison inmates who often tattoo'd ACAB on themselves. In the 70's became popular in the punk/oi scenes after the band 4-Skins used it as the title for a song. Alternative...

• Use Firefox, Waterfox, Brave, or Opera. Never Chrome.

I disagree with the recommendation of Opera as it's closed-source, so we have to trust that they're upholding their privacy policy since the code can't be vetted.
For the same reason, try keeping any browser extensions, or just software in general that you use, open-source (Still look it up and check if it's private, since open-source doesn't guarantee it is, only that you can verify whether it is). Also make sure it's available on Linux if you ever plan on switching to that.
If you aren't crazy about privacy, something chromium-based like Brave or Ungoogled Chromium is fine, otherwise Firefox or a derivative like Waterfox or Librefox is better as they can be much more private since there's more settings for that (which is why Tor browser is based on Firefox). For Firefox I'd recommend the arkenfox config for privacy (please read it's wiki first because there's necessary information for how to install, and more importantly modifying the config, which you will do especially in the beginning.)

Storage drives in your computer and elsewhere being dug into is a risk if you ctb (or get caught trying to ctb). Unless a drive is wiped (not a quick format, but actually overwriting all the data with zeroes or random data, which takes hours per TB on hard drives) or encrypted, all it's data can be seen, including things you deleted (using file recovery software). If you have any old computers, external drives, usb drives, sd cards, phones, game consoles, etc that currently/previously had data you don't want dug through, keep this in mind. If anything sensitive is on cloud storage like Google Drive, replace it with an encrypted archive so they can't see it either. Use a strong password on whatever you encrypt so it can't be brute-forced.

Edit: For people concerned about exif data, metadata can also be present on video/audio files, word documents, etc.

There are websites that remove exif data for you. Google em up and you should be safe.

From my knowledge, screenshots don't contain metadata. Or at least, nothing sensitive about location and such! Only photos do~
Safari is not open-source and is even owned by Apple~ I get that Apple's been trying to advertise themselves as privacy-friendly recently, but it's all a ruse!
Also, I'm happy the guy included Waterfox! ^_^ Waterfox is the best yet so underrated! >_< That being said, I use Tor for SaSu because it's unfortunately blocked otherwise~

 

[Bodydysmorphia34]

The harsh truth is pro lifers don't care about your well-being, they just want you to stay alive for the sake of staying alive, is it for religious, "moral" reasons, whatever. Bottom line is, they don't care about you, which is why they're shallow hypocrites.

I've shared this elsewhere but my old account was found by "friends" and the posts were used in a restraining order against me to demonstrate that I was unwell. I think they found it by searching the bridge I frequented and then confirmed because I spilled a lot of details about personal things that were going on within my family and friends that they knew about.

Don't trust anyone y'all.

One thing I've learned in life: You can't trust anybody. Even if they promise to tell nobody, they'll do it. Most people can't keep "secrets".

 

[ClownWorld2023]

For removing EXIF data, I recommend removing it using Windows file properties setting (if you use Windows).

Otherwise it's best to use a locally installed software for it, preferably free and open source.

Do not upload your files to websites that claim to remove EXIF data, or for any other purposes.
This is a privacy risk. You don't know who is running those websites.

I have a basic knowledge of coding and certain experience with EXIF data. My biggest obstacle is that I'm trapped in my phone (depression here is so high that nobody has will to assemble my computer, neither I have force).

I operate through phones, so it's harder to find more accurate apps and/or softwares to check deeper metadata. Would you happen to know actual good and similar APKs, sites or alikes (EXIF remover, data checker) that function on a phone?

Would be of huge help to know. Also, thank you for all the information! I aim to improve my security, so I'm really thankful.
