Questions about TOR and other privacy related stuff Hi, My cousin got few photos of some documents exposing corruption of a top level politician in our country. He wants to forward it to the AG's office. The problem is that whistleblowers are slaughtered in our country. Few questions about this- - The ISP will know whether one is connected to Tor or a vpn. So, is Tor over vpn recommened or just purely Tor in say Windows? Sure the vpn's cannot be trusted, more on this in the next points, but wouldn't it add an extra layer to bypass to find the sender? - If the answer to the above point is no, then is Tails the best option or is there any better alternative? I am assuming Tails is as easy to use as linux, I mean plug in the external drive, boot it and one's done. Is this correct or are the settings etc. harder for a layman to configure? When one is using Tails, will the ISP know that the person is connected to the Tor network? - Is Tails having an inbuilt vpn or exif/metadata remover from the photos? Yes vpn can be ignored here, but is there a way to figure out if there's an ip leakage or something while using Tails or simply Tor? About the exif/metadata remover, once Tails is booted via an external drive in a pc/laptop, will it allow one to copy photos from another drive to Tails so that it can be attached in a mail? - The richest guy in Asia was sent some extortion mails, which is morally wrong and the perpetrators should be caught and they were within hours https://www.freepressjournal.in/mumbai/mukesh-ambani-receives-repeated-death-threats-via-email-after-ignoring-previous-400-cr-demand-confirms-mumbai-police https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/mumbai/mukesh-ambani-threat-mails-teenager-arrested-9013062/ They got the ip from mailfence, which doesn't have a local server, within hours. Now about the vpn point in the first point, a guy sent a mail to some Governor of a state about a MP involved in corruption. It turns out he was in cahoots with the MP. W
