Hi, |
2 |
|
3 |
while trying to setup a better environment for online banking, |
4 |
I wanted to make my daily Linux environment also more secure (in the |
5 |
sense of keeping my digital footprint as small as possible). |
6 |
|
7 |
I read some informations on the internet. |
8 |
Conclusion: Its more private to hide in the mass as |
9 |
to be the only one, who is able to keep all information |
10 |
off the internet -- which is remarkable unique -- |
11 |
you are putting a label with your name right onto |
12 |
your fronthead just before entering the digital world |
13 |
of surveillance. |
14 |
|
15 |
I did not tried to do the same with PaleMoon which |
16 |
I did with Firefox since the amount of compatible plugins/extensions |
17 |
for PaleMoon is quite small and I still cant use NoScript with PaleMoon. |
18 |
|
19 |
Two sites I found on the internet, which are quite handy to |
20 |
check what the current browser is submitting: |
21 |
|
22 |
https://panopticlick.eff.org/ |
23 |
and for more detailed results: |
24 |
https://anonymous-proxy-servers.net/en/help/security_test.html |
25 |
(the presented results on that page are examples. Click |
26 |
"Check it!" on the upper right corner of that page. If a |
27 |
authetication dialog pops up, click it away and click |
28 |
"Start test" on the page.) |
29 |
|
30 |
The results of the modification and addons I added |
31 |
are shown in the attached images. |
32 |
|
33 |
I removed the informations of my ISP and IP-address. |
34 |
|
35 |
If there is an interest of what I did I would be happy |
36 |
to describe it...but there is a problem of the memory |
37 |
footprint... |
38 |
The most efficient way to transport the informations |
39 |
of what is needed to tweak would be screenshots of |
40 |
those addons setting dialog, which do not provide a |
41 |
way to store the current settings into a file. |
42 |

Cheers |
