+

+ A minimalist guide to digital privacy, security, and anti-censorship. +

+
+
+

+ Welcome to ghost.moe. This guide is meant to help you take control of + your digital privacy and security. With more privacy and security, comes + less convenience. This is an unfortunate reality. We've broken things down + by topic, and each topic has three levels: More Convenient, Balanced, and + More Secure/Private. Start where you're comfortable. +

+
+
+

+ Threat Modeling +

+

+ The most important thing to consider when you are worried about privacy + and security, is your threat model. Who are you trying to hide your data + from? If you only need to hide your data from your family, you may just + need to delete your browser history. If you are trying to hide your data + from governments, you will have to do quite a bit more work than just deleting + your browser history. Come up with your threat model, and think about the + tools that this adversary has at their disposal. Keep that in mind when + going through this guide. +

+
+
+

+ 🧭 Web Browsing +

+

+ Your web browser is one of the most used programs on your system. Taking + steps to lock down your web browser will greatly increase your privacy. +

+
+
+

+ More Convenient +

+
    +
  • + Switch to + + + Firefox + + + + Firefox has a long history of respecting your privacy. + +
    • +
  • + Install an adblocker like + + + uBlock Origin + + + . + + Ads can be used to track you across websites or give you malware. + +
    • +
  • + Use + + + DuckDuckGo + + + instead of google. + + DuckDuckGo does not track your searches or browsing history. + +
    • +
  • + Disable third-party cookies in settings. + + Cookies can also be used to track you across websites. + +
    • +
  • + Tell websites not to sell or share your data in settings. + + Note: Websites do not have to adhere to this request. + +
    • +
+
+
+

+ Balanced +

+
    +
  • + Set Firefox to "Strict" Enhanced Tracking Protection. + + Note: This could cause some websites to break. + +
    • +
  • + Set Firefox to delete cookies and site data when Firefox is closed. + + This will make it harder to track you between sessions. + +
    • +
  • + Set Firefox to "Always use private browsing mode". + + This will log you out of everything and forget your history. This is very useful on shared computers or laptops that could easily be stolen. + +
    • +
+
+
+

+ More Secure +

+
    +
  • + Use + + + Tor Browser + + + for all sensitive browsing. + + Tor is the gold standard browser for privacy and anti-censorship. It will be very slow. + +
    • +
  • + Block javascript with + + + NoScript + + + or + + + Ghostery + + + + Javascript is code that a website chooses to run on your computer. Blocking javascript can stop websites from learning more about your computer. + +
    • +
+
+
+
+
+

+ 📱 Phones +

+

+ Most people carry their phone everywhere they go. This can be used to + track you. +

+
+
+

+ More Convenient +

+
    +
  • + Disable personalized ads in iOS or Android settings. + + Android: Settings > Google > Ads > Turn off "Ad Personalization"
    + iOS: Settings > Privacy & Security > Apple Advertising > Turn off Personalized Ads +     +
    • +
  • + Manage app permissions. + + Set location permissions to “While using the app” or “Ask every time”.
    + Disable microphone and camera access for non-essential apps. + Disable system-wide location when not needed. +     +
    • +
  • + Remove unused apps. + + Apps can run in the background even if you are not using them. + +
    • +
  • + Use a pin or password to unlock your phone. + + In some jurisdictions you can be required to unlock your phone with your fingerprint or face, but not with a pin or password. + +
    • +
+
+
+

+ Balanced +

+
    +
  • + Use open-source apps from + + F-Droid + + . +
    • +
  • + Limit app permissions manually. +
    • +
+
+
+

+ More Secure +

+
    +
  • + Install a custom ROM like + + GrapheneOS + + or + + LineageOS + + . +
    • +
  • + Avoid all Google services. +
    • +
+
+
+
+
+

+ 🔐 Accounts +

+
+
+

+ More Convenient +

+
    +
  • + Use strong and unique passwords for every account. +
    • +
  • + Enable password managers like Bitwarden or 1Password. +
    • +
+
+
+

+ Balanced +

+
    +
  • + Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) where available. +
    • +
  • + Avoid using social logins (Google, Facebook). +
    • +
+
+
+

+ More Secure +

+
    +
  • + Use pseudonyms and email aliases. +
    • +
  • + Segment identities for different activities. +
    • +
+
+
+
+
+

+ 🛡️ Two-Factor Authentication +

+
+
+

+ More Convenient +

+
    +
  • + Enable 2FA using SMS or email. +
    • +
+
+
+

+ Balanced +

+
    +
  • + Use TOTP apps like Aegis or Authy. +
    • +
+
+
+

+ More Secure +

+
    +
  • + Use hardware tokens like YubiKey or Nitrokey. +
    • +
+
+
+
+
+

+ 🛰️ VPN +

+
+
+

+ More Convenient +

+
    +
  • + Use any reputable no-log VPN service. +
    • +
+
+
+

+ Balanced +

+
    +
  • + Use VPNs based in privacy-friendly jurisdictions. +
    • +
+
+
+

+ More Secure +

+
    +
  • + Self-host your own VPN using WireGuard. +
