evacide"Eva," you ask, "What does good, practical digital privacy advice for abortion-seekers look like if I'm not supposed to tell them to download Tails?"
It looks like this: https://digitaldefensefund.org/ddf-guides/abortion-privacy
ninavizz@evacide How to scream from the rooftop "I have never studied human behavior," without saying a darn thing.
Like, the POINT of a threat model, is to grok that NOT everything needs Tails—and that stupid-simple opsec goes a LONG way!!!
Harry Hall@ninavizz @evacide Tails IS stupid simple SecOps. It covers multiple threat types under a single system that you would normally have to address independently. It's not even difficult to use. Grab a USB, write an image, reboot while holding a key, select the right thing in the menu and voila. It even had a Windows XP interface option if you aren't familiar with Linux.
What more could you want? It's literally designed for this type of scenario.
Marian (she/her)@areyouevenreal @ninavizz @evacide "write an image" — ok well you've lost half the audience already.
@talopine @ninavizz @evacide It's a very simple process using an application like UNetBootin or Rufus. You pretty much just give it a file, select your USB, and press go.
I don't get why an average person would have a problem doing that provided they are given instructions. I could teach someone to do it in five or ten minutes in person.
UNetBootin will even download the ISO for you for some distributions
