Social media accounts get banned, the EU will read all messages, and worse will come. Therefore completely uncensorable protocols as well as access to alternate, ordinary social media accounts is necessary. We provide all of this, combined with any setup necessary to keep talking.
- End-to-end encrypted messengers like Signal, Session, and SimpleX Chat run on minimal metadata, with Session routing through a decentralized onion network.
- Peer-to-peer voice and video options such as Briar and Jami work over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Tor even when the public internet is down.
- Forums and group chat hosted on Nostr, Matrix (Element), or RSS-backed blogs give you censorship-resistant broadcast channels with no single owner able to delete you.
AI is now degrading and practically altering all information on the internet. But it's also used to dig deeper as well as preserving content. We provide ways of managing this.
- Independent search engines like Mojeek, Brave Search, and Kagi build their own indexes instead of inheriting Big Tech bias.
- Personal archiving with tools such as ArchiveBox, SingleFile, and IPFS pinning captures pages before they vanish or get rewritten.
- Open-source LLMs run locally (Ollama, LM Studio, Mistral, Llama) let you summarize, verify, and cross-check evidence without leaking prompts to third parties.
Any individual or business need to be able to publish to the internet without censorship. This is becoming increasingly important, so we provide strategies, tools and tailored solutions for this. Read more about all the options here.
- Permanent publishing on Arweave via Bundlr, ArDrive, or Mirror (Arweave-backed) means your content lives forever on a decentralized data layer with no single party able to delete it.
- Fully anonymous hosting providers like Njal.la (no KYC, accepts anonymous payment and crypto) and servers leased with Monero from providers such as 1984.is, BuyVM, or 2009hosting keep your publishing infrastructure off the grid.
- Self-hosted Ghost, WordPress, or WriteFreely on a VPS you control, fronted by a Tor .onion address and mirrored to Arweave, gives you full authorship, backups, and censorship resistance in one stack.
It is obvious that anyone operating with freedom can now be a target. Remaining totally anonymous is getting harder, all while it gets even more important. We provide strategies, coaching and direct assistance. Forming new habits are important, so do not expect a simple, turnkey solution.
- Route everything through Tor Browser or Tails OS, ideally from a hardware-isolated machine with Wi-Fi disabled.
- Compartmentalize identities: separate email aliases per role (SimpleLogin, Addy.io), payment methods, and devices.
- Pay anonymously with prepaid cards, Monero, or cash-funded crypto, and never link a real name, face, or voice to your public persona.
- Continuous coaching and trend updates: ongoing one-on-one sessions, threat-model reviews, and a private feed tracking the latest in OPSEC, de-Googled hardware, mesh networks, and surveillance legislation, so your stack never goes stale.
This obvious freedom is intimately connected to all those mentioned above. Some services might be relatively easy to provide online, while trading freely in ordinary, direct ways might be harder.
Regardless of what strategy is chosen for payments there will be a need to involve different services, tools and routines. There is always a way!
- Crypto direct payments: accept censorship-resistant payments in Bitcoin (on-chain or Lightning) and Monero through self-custodial wallets like Phoenix, Sparrow, or Cake Wallet.
- Crypto escrow: non-custodial escrow services such as Escrowed.monero, Bitrated, and Unbisq hold funds in multisig until both sides confirm, removing the need to trust a stranger.
- Physical direct trade: meet face-to-face with verified local counterparties for cash on the barrel, or trade in silver coins (Libertad, Britannia, Maple, generic rounds) that travel across borders as collectibles.
- Physical escrow: use trusted third-party escrow agents, pawn-style holding, or community-run local exchanges to settle larger deals in cash or silver without either party taking the full risk up front.
- Sell goods and services peer-to-peer on OpenBazaar, Bisq, Robosats, or plain escrow smart contracts without giving a percentage to a centralized marketplace.
The nomad life is the freedom life. Every tool above becomes a tool you carry: encrypted comms from any rooftop, censorship-proof publishing from a beach, anonymous payments at any border, and OPSEC that travels with you. Below is how to weave them into a sustainable, on-the-move existence.
- The mobile kit: a hardened laptop (Tails or Qubes), a travel router running through Tor or a reputable paid VPN paid in Monero, a hardware wallet, prepaid SIMs bought with cash, and a satellite messenger (Garmin inReach, Iridium GO!) for off-grid communication.
- Income that follows you: remote-first work, freelancing paid in BTC/XMR, location-independent e-commerce on Tor shops, digital product sales on Arweave, and skill-based services that need only a laptop and a Wi-Fi signal.
- Banking without borders: multi-currency accounts held in your passport country, plus a stack of Monero and a modest position in Bitcoin and physical silver. Use peer-to-peer exchanges (Bisq, RoboSats, HodlHodl) and avoid any institution that asks where you live this week.
- Documents and identity discipline: second citizenship or residency where possible, notarized apostilled copies of key papers in both physical safes and encrypted cloud backups, and a clean separation between your legal, your business, and your public personas.
- Resilience on the move: small, lightweight preps (water filter, first aid, Faraday pouch, 30 days of shelf-stable food), a bug-out backpack always packed, and a network of trusted contacts in several countries who can receive mail, lend a couch, or wire funds in a pinch.
- Mental and physical freedom: rotate jurisdictions with the seasons, train in martial arts or a travel-friendly sport, keep a daily practice (meditation, lifting, journaling) that anchors you when nothing else does, and design a routine, not a destination, because the home is the system you carry.
Big Tech operating systems and corporate cloud servers monitor your actions at the foundational level, scanning files, tracking locations, and telemetry. True independence requires owning the metal and the software that runs on it. We provide the blueprint to transition entirely away from compromised infrastructure toward sovereign computing.
- De-Googled mobile devices: Reclaiming your smartphone is the first step. By flashing open-source operating systems like GrapheneOS or CalyxOS onto secure hardware, you strip out all vendor telemetry, location tracking, and background surveillance while retaining practical, daily usability.
- Sovereign desktop hardware: Operating systems like Linux (Debian, Linux Mint) and hypervisors like Qubes OS are most effective when paired with hardware free of proprietary backdoors. We map out the market of trusted vendors using open-source firmware (Coreboot or Libreboot) to secure your system from the moment it boots.
- Plug-and-play home servers: You do not need to rent a server to have a cloud. Using self-managed local nodes (like Start9, Umbrel, or customized Docker setups on local hardware), you can easily host your own password managers (Vaultwarden), communication relays, and Bitcoin nodes physically inside your own property.
- Owning your digital vault: Moving away from cloud-synced ecosystems means securely managing your own credentials, two-factor seeds, and private keys offline, backing them up via encrypted, localized physical drives rather than trusting an enterprise tech corporation.
