Yes, it is still working, albeit with only a few active relays.  
Tormail is a lot easier to use, though.

But neither is likely appropriate for Justin, who is concerned with 
an email provider that doesn't mine or share his private email, 
rather than the ability to send email anonymously. I agree that 
https://riseup.net is a good bet.

Tormail is not run by anyone at Tor. Be wary of things with "tor" in the title 
but no links on the torproject.org site.

Is the mixmaster network still working? Might that not also be an option to

A simple answer is: riseup.net (and donate some money to them, if you
can afford to, by the way).

The answer might get more complicated (and more difficult to implement)
the more deeply you delve into your needs, of course.  But for a start,
riseup.net is probably a good place to look.

This is a more complicated topic.  Use good passwords, only install open
source software, and don't run unnecessary services (e.g., don't run a
web server on your laptop, database server, etc, unless you have to).
Make sure your screen lock goes on automatically; also remember to turn
it on when you leave the laptop alone.  Don't get seen on camera typing
your password.  Etc :-).

(As other replies indicate, really thinking about this problem gets
complicated.)

Justin,

I'd suggest you start by studying the options presented at
http://prism-break.org/ for alternative solutions.

In terms of hardening your Ubuntu install there are vary resources
available from a web search but you may consider the Tails
distribution or Whonix - both referred in the OS section of the link
above. Good luck, Cheers, -Ali

[liberationtech] Help with Privacy online

2013-07-03 Thread Justin Breithaupt
I would like to know what services are available for e-mail that don't
share my private information, like Gmail does when it shares my info.

I would also like to know the best way to secure a Ubuntu based PC against
privacy and security problems that allow the government and other people
into your PC.
