I see quite a few comments trashing this article, why?

It gives solid advice while reminding the reader that this is not perfect.

If I was Snowden this is not enough at all, but If I was an illegal immigrant in a country full of others like me? I think this article plus the final note about past data, does actually give a very solid advice.

I would argue that those who follow this guide, and take to heart the final notes and does something about past information (e.g move to a new address, change some habits, etc) would not be discovered in a mass deportation. Again, if you are an individual who is uniquely targeted by a government, this is not enough.

And yeah, they missed some points and this isn’t perfect, but anyone who is serious would do more research anyway, so I actually think this a good article.

President-elect Donald Trump has promised to deport millions of undocumented immigrants. He’s vowed to jail his political foes and journalists. A Republican-controlled government could further restrict abortion and transgender rights.

FUCK U$A!!!

the Freedom of the Press Foundation’s Holmes suggests users try the private browsing feature in the Brave browser, which uses a stripped-down version of Tor’s anonymous routing by default.

Better alternatives than this? I use a VPN but not Tor at the moment
