After posting on Qubes-Users about my experience with whonix and Patrick. TO voice my #metoo. I got a notice in my email inbox he responded to my old thread. https://forums.whonix.org/t/forward-and-reverse-dns-dont-match-up/2147 I replied I don't trust whonix because of him. and he told me to "FUCK OFF"
After that I saw another notice in my email from some other troll, and Patrick dedicated a whole thread to it. While cowardly banning me so I couldn't respond. Lets see if he posts it... https://forums.whonix.org/t/concern-trolling/6883 So here is my response to TorGroupie here: First Patrick trolled me to get me to post on his forums again. And now you are crawling out from under the bridge knowing I will respond. Can't get enough of me here? Yes I use windows 10 for gaming and entertainment. But I use Qubes for other things. My mother uses Qubes as her mainstay does that count? She is not even that computer literate which probably pisses off an inferiority complex nerd like yourself. Anybody can use it. That's the beauty of it. Even though some were trying to make Qubes 4 harder to use, the community responded to make it user friendly again. I respond to people asking for opinions or help on the Qubes forums. I keep things simple and don't respond to anything I haven't experienced myself. and I dislike rude people who can dish it but can't take it. I find that suspect. Patrick was afraid to troll me on the google mailing list too. no problem. Thats why i love that Qubes chose google. Keeps the trolls out!! 1. Security and anonymity are two diff things. Qubes was geared for home desktop users. Which a common daily task would be logging into personal accounts and keeping data. Hiding my location is something I have no need for. It has some minor benfits like avoiding someone targeting qubes users with bad updates form upstream source, but I always find whonix problematic when it comes to updating. This should be common sense and simple to understand. Unless of course you are trolling.... 2. The explanation for why Whonix doesn't have a canary is a poor one to me. And like I said, to claim laws are not same in certain countries but while at same time claiming US laws affect everywhere is contradictory. And I find having no canary suspect. If you don't like that , that's your problem. I explained other reasons why as well and you seem to have no retort to it. Except to troll my character which is typical troll behavior. 3. Security in general is hard. And anonymity is even harder especially if you want a life. For home desktop a more practical solution would be a good vpn. But you would have better anonymity using tails on disposable disk. 4. An example of how tor is so dangerous to use is how many MITM attempts will be made against you when simply updating whonix, simply because you are using tor. Something I've learned when using it when Andrew Wong pointed it out to me. Patrick himself on the Qubes forums states he can't account for security of tor node servers. Which lets face it are probably run by alot of shady people. Or how bout how you would be putting yourself on the governments radar and suspicion just for using it. I'm not even talking about the dark web... Which is a criminal barbarian haven you'd most likely become a victim of by visiting. 5. You are repeating yourself here. Yes its extremely hard. Everyone in the field knows that. You should probably just change your name to TorGroupie. Since you don't really seem to have any experience with anything except trolling. You wouldn't know if you were compromised if something crawled up your ass. I accept the fact I'm compromised. Joanna herself claims noone can tell if they are. 6. And Patrick isn't emotional? He just told me to "FUCK OFF" lol. Hes the typical linux snob. The type of elitist troll you find in a linux irc chatroom. The type to take the time to belittle me while at the same time hypocritically claiming he has no time to answer my question. He must of grew up and been raised by irc chatrooms. You can tell the difference with invisible things labs, and its one of the things I like about them. And no wonder qubes-whonix left the project. I would of left too. Patrick seems to have other priorities then security and performance of Whonix. I bet with a little research on him I could figure out his other agendas easily. Come try me we can go there. And hey TorGroupie, why don't you go "FUCK OFF" too. Try this one on for size. Tor is so painfully slow that If you are not fearing for your life or fearing imprisonment. You're a selfish prick who might be getting someone else killed using its bandwidth... Keep pretending you're special by sticking it to the ad agencies. I do dislike in your face ads on webpages which are security risks in themselves. But if it weren't for ads and trackers we would of never had tv and probalby wouldn't have an internet. We wouldn't have this very google mailing list. Which keeps the trolls under their rocks!! Come troll me here, don't be scared of the google. Or are they restricting your shady tor node... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
