Paying for the VPN that's harder to detect with my credit card which is very easy to detect.

Devices are already riddled with backdoors imposed by federal authorities. The only real way to avoid them is to obtain a device not designed or assembled within the NATO block.
Incidentally, import of these devices has become increasingly difficult, on the grounds that these devices may have backdoors implemented by foreign governments.
In case you weren't aware, it's actually pretty easy to pay for a VPN in unmarked funds. Most will allow for BTC transactions, but some VPNs will even allow you to use giftcards for a place like Target.
This is the dumb guy panacea for committing every financial crime. You'd never even know the block chain is a public ledger.
Mullvad even lets you send them an envelope with cash in it, with no identifying info other than your account number.
this smells distinctly russian for some reason, anyway, just use open source software and hardware, the protection net while not perfect, is entirely open, and theoretically, capable of perfect safety.
Of course, disregard everything Snowden and Assange leaked. Your devices are secure, citizen. Carry on.
my brother in christ you literally referred to it as the NATO block.
What makes you think chinese devices don't have backdoors for example? It's also likely russian devices do, though idk how many if any they produce. We do know that russian malware often has a russian locale kill switch because apparently they're a little silly like that.
nice quote blocks
Time to get on it privacy coin bandwagon
