Hardware:

* MilkV board with Gentoo Linux
* Modos paper display (e-paper display)
* Keyboardio keyboard and/or Ploopy mouse kit (custom keyboard and mouse)
* Ovrdrive USB with encrypted password manager (KeePassXC, masterpassword.app, or Bitwarden)

Software:

* Gentoo Linux with:
+ Hardened kernel
+ Refusal to install proprietary packages
+ rkhunter (rootkit hunter)
+ iptables (firewall)
+ firejail (application sandboxing)
+ clamav (antivirus)
+ kvm/qemu (virtualization)
+ pyshark (network analysis)
* Web browser options:
+ GNU Icecat with LibreJS
+ ELinks (terminal browser)
+ GNUNet with custom SOCKS5 proxy (post-quantum cryptography)

Networking:

* Self-hosted email on a VPS (not using a personal homeserver)
* xkpasswd.net for high-entropy passwords
* Stripped ARM Olinuxino board with ath9k PCIe for open 802.11 IP over DHCP

The project focuses on

Security: Hardening the kernel, using rkhunter, iptables, firejail, and clamav to create a secure environment.
Privacy: Using encrypted password managers, self-hosted email, and a custom SOCKS5 proxy with post-quantum cryptography.
Free and open-source software: Refusing proprietary packages and using only free and open-source software. Amd on the hardware level.

the system is already designed to erase marginalized weirdos like yourself from public view, seems rather redundant to go to all these efforts to become even more of a silenced nobody than you already are.

>clamav (antivirus)
is it really worth using on linux?
>GNUNet
I'm no expert but I remember reading a long time ago about how they plannd to build in backdoors for LEOin the basic framework of GNUnet. Is that still true or was it overruled?

Wrong. Qubes OS on any compatible laptop. Install Coreboot if you're extra paranoid (unless you're afraid of actively being targeted by the Mossad, it's not worth it in 99% of cases). Use Whonix DVMs for daily browsing.
Everything you've listed probably contains some very cool security and privacy technologies, but stacking them together randomly will just make you easily identifiable on the internet, make you glow harder than an average CIA agent.
A rule of thumb for privacy/security: if your stack involves a shitton of random minor projects and custom solutions, you're probably doing something very wrong.

IDS/IPS, Honeypots, DLP, and data threat sharing mean hacktivisim is not viable.

Running frontier AI in bulk demands giant chips that create a paper trail.

Essential info for anyone going to doxx the CIA.

The best defense is always going to be social, I feel like buying all of this shit while it might make you semi-invisible to a fed, would draw there attention just from the purchase list alone coupled with whatever activities you do on it drawing scrutiny.

OPSEC will always be king.
