Thanks for your research, keep posting to all the 29 or so free speech sites... too bad Poal shadowbans, censors , deletes, and is a god damned dumpster fire.

I posted proof of two popular user upvoated topics totally censored by Poal admins this last week : https://ramble.pw/f/privacy/2387/-/comment/2901

LIST OF PLACES for you to consider posting your research and revelations!:

https://ramble.pw/f/privacy/2387/-/comment/2902

Save that list!

Also , be sure to add "on my OS, on my machine, conditionals as well" to not trigger people demanding you try it on 3 ISPS on 3 machines. Ask for confirmation at top and bottom of your post to not trigger the Brave fanboy nazis thinking you are a enemy shill.

Poal.co censors far far too much in Feb 2021 : two examples in my prior post.

but I agree that Rambler need to post this asking for confirmation on all the following sites , and even other less censoring subreddits on Reddit.

Used OptiPlex PCs with XP Pro pre-installed and pre-activated are still available on eBay. Got my last/current one over three years ago, and it's still going strong. Unfortunately it's use for surfing is very limited by the last three remaining browsers, which is the only reason I'm in process of moving on to Win 7 Pro.

I am not a fan of Win 7, but I can put up with it for a year or two, til I teach myself Linux. My 'new' used PC is Dell Optiplex 7010 Mini-Tower, Quad Core i7 3770 (3.4GHz), 16GB DDR3 SDRAM, 1TB Hard Drive: Windows 7 Pro 64-bit. I had computer shop modify it. Mobile rack in the spare 5.25 bay which holds a SSD for MX Linux, and a regular hard disk for bare-metal/clone backups of Win 7.

AntiX is more on par with Linux Mint, both being slightly less intuitive than MX Linux, but I think AntiX is a smaller install than MX, so might be better for a laptop.

XP Pro was the last MS OS I ran at home and honestly, loved it. I still probably have an old XP SP3 disk somewhere. Didn't know installs were still in use outside of POS systems and purpose built use cases in factories and industry running software that requires it.

May try MX Linux on an older laptop that I'd like to breathe new life into. I've heard good things about AntiX as well.

I gave a test drive to around 20+ distros over the last couple years. Only ones I found usable for an XP Pro expat was MX Linux, Linux Mint, AntiX, Kodachi Linux, and Tails. My pick of the litter was MX Linux for install. Linux Mint, Kodachi and Tails for LiveCD use.

My upcoming move from XP Pro to a Win 7 Pro rig will have MX Linux on separate SSD. I will continue to use Linux Mint for online banking/shopping, and Kodachi or Tails to safari into the darkest darkness of the Darknet. MX Linux and Kodachi impresses me the most!

Depends on what you need it for, and what you need it to do. Considerations could be:

  1. No logs policy (backed up in it's TOS), and preferably certified by a 3rd party.

  2. Based outside the 14-Eyes jurisdiction.

  3. Reliable kill-switch.

  4. No leaks.

  5. GUI client.

  6. Compatible with your OS.

  7. Uses compatible protocol (IKEv2, Wireguard, L2TP, OpenVPN, etc.).

  8. TOR friendly.

  9. Multi-hop.

  10. Unlimited bandwidth/fast speed.

  11. No auto-renew or ability to disable it.

There are no 'good' cookies. Only those some are fooled into thinking are useful to themselves....but are always far more useful to others. I have Self-Destructing Cookies on my Firefox-deriative browsers, Cookinator on auto, then always back that up with BleachBit and CCleaner prior to turning off the PC.
