Over the last 16 months, as I've debated this issue around the world, every single time somebody has said to me, "I don't really worry about invasions of privacy because I don't have anything to hide." I always say the same thing to them. I get out a
pen, I write down my email address. I say, "Here's my email address. What I want you to do when you get home is email me the passwords to all of your email accounts, not just the nice, respectable work one in your name, but all of them, because I
want to be able to just troll through what it is you're doing online, read what I want to read and publish whatever I find interesting. After all, if you're not a bad person, if you're doing nothing wrong, you should have nothing to hide." <strong>Not a single person has taken me up on that offer.</strong></p>

<h1 id="ukusa" class="anchor"><a href="#ukusa"><i class="fas fa-link anchor-icon"></i></a> Global Mass Surveillance - The Fourteen Eyes</h1>
<img src="assets/img/layout/UKUSA.png" class="img-fluid float-right" alt="UKUSA Agreement" style="margin-left:10px;">
<p>The UKUSA Agreement is an agreement between the United Kingdom, United States, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand to cooperatively collect, analyze, and share intelligence. Members of this group, known as the <a href="http://www.giswatch.org/en/communications-surveillance/unmasking-five-eyes-global-surveillance-practices">Five Eyes</a>,
focus on gathering and analyzing intelligence from different parts of the world. While Five Eyes countries have agreed to <a href="http://www.pbs.org/newshour/rundown/an-exclusive-club-the-five-countries-that-dont-spy-on-each-other/">not spy on each other</a> as adversaries, leaks by Snowden have revealed that some Five Eyes members monitor each other’s citizens and <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/uk/2013/jun/21/gchq-cables-secret-world-communications-nsa">share intelligence</a> to <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/politics/2013/jun/10/nsa-offers-intelligence-british-counterparts-blunkett">avoid breaking domestic laws</a> that prohibit them from spying on their own citizens. The Five Eyes alliance also cooperates with groups of third-party countries to share intelligence (forming the Nine Eyes and Fourteen Eyes), however Five Eyes and third-party countries can and do
spy on each other.</p>

<p>Services based in the United States are not recommended because of the country’s surveillance programs, use of <a href="https://www.eff.org/issues/national-security-letters/faq">National Security Letters</a> (NSLs) and accompanying gag orders, which
forbid the recipient from talking about the request. This combination allows the government to <a href="https://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2013/08/more_on_the_nsa.html">secretly force</a> companies to grant complete access to customer data and
transform the service into a tool of mass surveillance.</p>
<p>An example of this is <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavabit#Suspension_and_gag_order">Lavabit</a> – a discontinued secure email service created by Ladar Levison. The FBI <a href="https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/nzz888/lavabit-founder-ladar-levison-discusses-his-federal-battle-for-privacy">requested</a> Snowden’s records after finding out that he used the service. Since Lavabit did not keep logs and email content was stored encrypted, the FBI served a subpoena (with a gag order) for the service’s SSL keys. Having the SSL keys would allow them to access
communications (both metadata and unencrypted content) in real time for all of Lavabit’s customers, not just Snowden's.</p>
<p>Ultimately, Levison turned over the SSL keys and <a href="http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/may/20/why-did-lavabit-shut-down-snowden-email">shut down</a> the service at the same time. The US government then <a href="http://www.cnbc.com/id/100962389">threatened Levison with arrest</a>,
saying that shutting down the service was a violation of the court order.</p>

<img src="assets/img/layout/warrant-canary.jpg" class="img-fluid float-right" alt="Warrant Canary Example" style="margin-left:20px;">
<p>A warrant canary is a posted document stating that an organization has not received any secret subpoenas during a specific period of time. If this document fails to be updated during the specified time then the user is to assume that the service has
received such a subpoena and should stop using the service.</p>

<strong>Your Browser sends information that makes you unique amongst millions of users and therefore easy to identify.</strong>
</div>
<!-- fingerprint image to the right of the paragraphs -->
<img src="assets/img/layout/browser-fingerprint.jpg" class="img-fluid float-right" alt="Fingerprint image" style="margin-left:20px;">
<!-- first paragraph -->
<p>When you visit a web page, your browser voluntarily sends information about its configuration, such as available fonts, browser type, and add-ons. If this combination of information is unique, it may be possible to identify and track you without using
cookies. EFF created a Tool called <a href="https://panopticlick.eff.org/">Panopticlick</a> to test your browser to see how unique it is.</p>
<!-- First orange "test your browser now" button -->
<p>
<a class="btn btn-warning" href="https://panopticlick.eff.org/">
Test your Browser now
</a>
</p>
<!-- second paragraph -->
<p>You need to find what <strong>most browsers</strong> are reporting, and then use those variables to bring your browser in the same population. This means having the same fonts, plugins, and extensions installed as the large installed base. You should
have a <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/uaswitcher/">spoofed user agent string</a> to match what the large userbase has. You need to have the same settings enabled and disabled, such as DNT and WebGL. You need your browser to
look as common as everyone else. Disabling JavaScript, using Linux, or even the TBB, will make your browser stick out from the masses.</p>
<!-- third paragraph -->
<p>Modern web browsers have not been architected to assure personal web privacy. Rather than worrying about being fingerprinted, it seems more practical to use <a href="#addons"><i class="fas fa-link"></i> free software plugins</a> like Privacy Badger, uBlock Origin and Disconnect.
They not only respect your freedom, but your privacy also. You can get much further with these than trying to manipulate your browser's fingerprint.</p>

<p>In short: Set "media.peerconnection.enabled" to "false" in "about:config".</p>
<p><strong>Explained:</strong></p>
<ol class="long-string-list">
<li>Enter "about:config" in the firefox address bar and press enter.</li>
<li>Press the button "I'll be careful, I promise!"</li>
<li>Search for "media.peerconnection.enabled"</li>
<li>Double click the entry, the column "Value" should now be "false"</li>
<li>Done. Do the WebRTC leak test again.</li>
</ol>
<p>If you want to make sure every single WebRTC related setting is really disabled change these settings:</p>
<ol class="long-string-list">
<li>media.peerconnection.turn.disable = true</li>
<li>media.peerconnection.use_document_iceservers = false</li>
<li>media.peerconnection.video.enabled = false</li>
<li>media.peerconnection.identity.timeout = 1</li>
</ol>

Two open source solutions include <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/webrtc-leak-prevent/eiadekoaikejlgdbkbdfeijglgfdalml">WebRTC Leak Prevent</a> (options may need to be changed depending on the scenario), and <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ublock-origin/cjpalhdlnbpafiamejdnhcphjbkeiagm">uBlock Origin</a> (select "Prevent WebRTC from leaking local IP addresses" in Settings).</p>
<h3>What about other browsers?</h3>
<p>Chrome on iOS, Internet Explorer and Safari does not implement WebRTC yet. <a href="#browser"><i class="fas fa-link"></i> But we recommend using Firefox on all devices.</a></p>

<strong>Improve your privacy with these excellent Firefox add-ons.</strong>
</div>
<h3>Stop Tracking with "Privacy Badger"</h3>
<img src="assets/img/addons/Privacy-Badger.png" class="img-fluid float-left" alt="Privacy Badger" style="margin-right:30px;">
<p><strong>Privacy Badger</strong> is a browser add-on that stops advertisers and other third-party trackers from secretly tracking where you go and what pages you look at on the web. Privacy Badger learns about trackers as you browse by inspecting external resources websites request. Please be aware that Google Analytics is considered first-party by Privacy Badger, which means that Google Analytics will not be blocked if you do not use another blocker, such as uBlock Origin.

<h3>Block Ads and Trackers with "uBlock Origin"</h3>
<img src="assets/img/addons/uBlock.png" class="img-fluid float-left" alt="uBlock" style="margin-right:30px;">
<p>An efficient <a href="https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/wiki/Blocking-mode">wide-spectrum-blocker</a> that's easy on memory, and yet can load and enforce thousands more filters than other popular blockers out there. It has no monetization strategy and
is completely <a href="https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/">open source</a>. We recommend Firefox but uBlock Origin also works in other browsers such as Safari, Opera, and Chromium. Unlike AdBlock Plus, uBlock does not allow so-called <a href="https://adblockplus.org/acceptable-ads">"acceptable ads"</a>.

<img src="assets/img/addons/Disconnect.png" class="img-fluid float-left" alt="Disconnect" style="margin-right:30px;">
<p>Founded in 2011 by former Google engineers and a consumer-and privacy-rights attorney. The addon is open source and loads the pages you go to 27% faster and stops tracking by 2,000+ third-party sites. It also keeps your searches private. If you are planning to install "uBlock Origin" make sure to install "Disconnect" first. <strong>Alternative to Disconnect:</strong> <a href="https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/privacy-badger-firefox/">Privacy Badger by EFF</a>

<h3>Stop cross-site requests with "Request Policy"</h3>

<li>privacy.firstparty.isolate = true
<ul>
<li>A result of the <a href="https://wiki.mozilla.org/Security/Tor_Uplift">Tor Uplift</a> effort, this preference isolates all browser identifier sources (e.g. cookies) to the first party domain, with the goal of preventing tracking across different domains.
