I am starting to see some pretty spicy messages on here and I thought it would be a good idea to write up a basic guide on how to protect yourself while online and posting messages. Keep in mind that your OS(Operating System) and your ISP(Internet Service Provider) are collecting data on everything you do. It is critical that you limit the amount of data they're able to collect on you. Especially now that the FBI can access your browsing history without a warrant: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/the-fbi-can-access-your-browsing-history-without-a-warrant-and-the-senate-is-to-blame.
This is by no means an all-encompassing guide but it will cover the important basics. Feel free to add anything in the comments.
Step 1:
Below are privacy settings you should look into depending on the OS that you are using.
Windows:

Ios:

Android:

Android Guest Mode (Privacy Feature):

Step 2:
By default your ISP is tracking and keeping a log of all your browsing history. You need to change the DNS servers that you are using. Be sure to do this! If you are using the router that your ISP provided, you may not be able to change it in your router settings. Sometimes the ISP locks this setting. If this is the case, you will need to change it via all your client devices. This includes your desktop, laptop, mobile devices, etc. Pretty much every device you have that connects to the internet. It is easy to find YouTube videos on how to change your DNS for the specific device / OS that you are using.
Below is a list of DNS servers for speed and privacy:

Look for one that is fast and preferably doesn't keep logs of your browsing data. Some will destroy the logs after 24hours. Any DNS server on that list is better than what you have by default from your ISP but some offer better privacy than others.
Step 3:
For email use ProtonMail: https://protonmail.com/
For a web browser use Brave: https://brave.com/
Set the search engine setting to DuckDuckGo.
Do not use Google search or Gmail while you're on a spicy tirade. They keep track of everything.
Step 4:
Now let's discuss how to protect yourself while you're on thedonald.win or any other website where you need anonymity. If you plan on being spicy do not even think of accessing this site without a VPN first and never use your primary account. Your primary account is most likely already compromised since it's associated with your ISP's IP address. Click on the following website: http://geoiplookup.net/ Do you see your ISP listed? This means the IP address you're currently using is the IP address associated with your ISP which means it leads right back to you.
Get a VPN and then create a thedonald.win throwaway account. Never access the throwaway account without your VPN enabled! And for extra privacy enabled your VPN and then open your Brave web browser via the "New private window with Tor" option which you will see in the top right hand corner of the Brave browser widow once you click on the 3 horizontal lines button. This additional option will make it unbelievably difficult to track/find you. If you use this Brave Tor option you may have difficulty with the CAPTCHA challenges if the website uses CloudFlare. If this happens, click the 3 horizontal lines button in the top right hand corner of the Brave browser window and then click the "New Tor connection for this site". Then try the CAPTCHA challenge again. You may have to do this a few times but it should accept the CAPTCHA eventually.
Here are some VPN services: https://thebestvpn.com/
If you log into your throwaway account without your VPN enabled then it's been compromised at that point and you'll need to ditch it and create a new one with your VPN enabled. You will only need to use the Brave "New private window with Tor" feature if you need absolute anonymity. VPNs are secure but you most likely used your billing information to purchase the service so the Brave Tor feature is just an extra step for good measure. It all depends on your spiciness.
That pretty much sums up this guide. The next few weeks could get pretty crazy so be sure to protect yourself while online.
Also, look to join an organization: https://thedonald.win/p/11R4gczpdy/i-see-a-lot-of-people-talking-ab/ Admins, add this information in the sidebar. People are looking for local organizations to join.
