Also if your that worried don't connect to your home network. My whonix pc has never been on my home network. Ever.

I am pritty sure that once again your Tor connection is the weak point in your security as its so broken from securty standpoint. I am pritty sure its actually undoing a lot of what your trying to do. I think you would reach a higher anonymity level with just 1/2 VPN(s0 and a bunch of security addon's. like Noscript, https everywhere, Ghostery/Disconnect(I use both because why not) and Blur(I think this is the repacement for DoNotTrackME)


Other addon's of note would be uMatrix (note I have barly touched it)
BetterPrivacy
Bloody Vikings! is god if you need to sign up to a bunch of sites that require email and don't wanna give it out.
Piigeon


This is just stuff that I have installed but I am sure there is more that you can do if you want to put effort into your online access.




EDIT:
As I am writing this I may as well fill in more:

I am assuming that stuff like Flash get uninstalled and if you use chrome as your primary browser you should force disable flash in the settings. That said I always have chrome installed on my PC as my "not secure brower" so if I want to use a website that needs flash like for example twitch.tv (mostly I use the "livestreamer" program but sometimes not because I am lazy) or other websites that sometimes break because of all the stuff im stopping them from doing but still want to access from time to time.

I highly recomend Lastpass or KeepPass



I could probably write a full page on this sort of thing if I am honest but still at the end of it all these addon's are better security than Tor itself ^
Once again I am open to correction of this if someone can cite a paper of some kind where they prove that Tor is again secure but for the last 3 or more years Tor has been the opposite of secure

And as a reply to your second point, I was referring to Tor in general, not just whonix. But what do you mean, it's never connected to your home network? Care to elaborate?


I am assuming he means that he uses public wifi (NEVER DO THIS) or mobile data.

RE: whonix install #13
No I don't use public wifi. I have cracked a neighboors.

I use crypto storm vpn and also have airvpn.org account. Which I pay bit coin in for.

Those plug ins come with tor browser. And if not I download them all on firefox with a few others to block dns leaks and webrtc. I don't use last pass or any keeper. I don't write passphrases down. I have them all in my head surprisingly. Flash is uninstalled





Your mind is programmable, if your not programming your mind, someone else will program it for you.
