Let's Talk Anonymity: A Short Treatise On Anonymity

The internet takes a very serious position in our everyday lives. We do a lot of activities over the web, some of which we would like our privacy respected say like online purchases and some in which the matter of privacy isn't a bother, say like reading some news articles on the Daily Nation or New York Times.

Many people take to the assumption that due diligence is paid whenever privacy is called for. More often than not, that is never the case. There's a huge disparity and practical difference between how privacy is taken in our physical world and our digital world. Though let's not forget that with our current real time constant surveillance in our physical world, this disparity might not last for long, but then that's a story for another time.

Linux's Most Lethal Commands to Never Execute

With the elegant Linux Terminal comes great power and with such great power comes great responsibility, and caution obviously. 

A great resource on the terminal is the use of Bash. Bash is the language of the Linux terminal and it’s powerful. Not only can it run commands but it can also run functions, which makes it easy to write scripts that can automate system tasks. Unfortunately, functions don’t come without their own set of risks.

I am the kind of guy who will tell you to visit the dark net if you know what you are looking for. Likewise, in the terminal, only execute commands which you are certain you know what they do and you are certain about what you want them to do.
