CATHODOX UNDERGROUND INFORMATION SYSTEM

These are the essential digital privacy and soverignty practices that if you are not doing by the end of this article, you are NGMI ("Not Gonna Make It"). This is a step by step guide to the basics of good digital hygiene, written assuming the reader is a complete beginner. PLEASE READ THIS SO YOU ARE NOT LOST WHEN BABEL STATE IS FULLY ESTABLISHED!!!

If you are not already using a privacy-focused browser, that is a cause for concern. CC3 fully endorses Brave Browser. Its available on IOS, Android, Linux, Mac, and Windows. This is a must have and it serves as the first line of defense against anonymous third parties collecting your information and building profiles on you that will inevitably be used against you.

If you don't want to use Brave, at least install the uBlock Origin extension on whatever browser you are using, as this does a great job of blocking trackers and scripts and ads.

GET BRAVE!!!

Using a good password manager has possibly had the greatest impact on my day-to-day digital happenings. Like how Brave is the unambigous winner for the browser category, the password manager we reccomend is BitWarden. It is entirely free and open source.

It is worth it to spend a day organizing all your passwords into a good and secure password manager, as the un-organization and scattered storing of passwords often is a point of vuneralbility on many fronts.

Other password managers that are cool include KeepassXC and ProtonPass. But. JUST USE BITWARDEN!!!

Most of us probably have dozens of email addresses, and thousands of unread emails from the hundreds of services we've signed up for. The email you use for your banking is what you use for your chipotle rewards which is what you use to subscribe to the Tucker Carlson Newsletter. It should be self evident why this is an unhygenic, messy, and unsecure practice.

Please please please look at your current email providers settings. They are disgusting. Yahoo, for example, by default analyzes your emails with their AI to provide "personalized ads." Gmail and whatever, they all do cringe like that too. I reccomend deleting all existing email addresses you can, and the accounts you signed up with them for, and starting fresh with a new, secure, privacy-focused, email client.

So get your emails straight by choosing a good email client. CC3 officially endorses Proton Mail and Tuta Mail. Both clients have anonymous signup--you DO NOT need to provide a phone number or ID or device registration of any kind. Both clients also include end-to-end encryption with internal email exchanges (that is, two Proton addresses communicating means its encrypted, but if a gmail emails you its not). And, of course, they cut out the fluff. They are just email clients. Thats it. No gay advertizing BS.

The best part is their aliasing system, which you NEED to use if you care about digital privacy. It is worth subscriping to Proton Pro and Tuta Pro, as you get 15 aliases for each service. If you don't know what aliasing is, it essentially is creating dummy email addresses that filter into your main email address, so that you don't expose your main address.

PLEASE GET PROTON MAIL OR TUTA MAIL OR BOTH!!!!

This pretty much is just using Signal. There are a lot of alternatives out there that arguably are more "private," but Signal is plenty fine. If you are reading this, you probably found the link on our signal.

GET ON SIGNAL!!

Uh, if you aren't using a VPN at all times, it is actually over for you. PLEASE USE A VPN FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY.

It is super easy. There are A LOT of good providers, but the two main ones that CC3 can vouch for are Proton VPN and Mullvad VPN. I think Proton is free, but otherwise Mullvad is very cheap. Mullvad is so anonymous that you dont even sign up for an account, they just give you an account number.

< This probably should be Step 1 or 2. ITS VERY IMPORTANT PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO THIS ON ALL OF YOUR DEVICES.One 5 dollar Mullvad subscription can cover all of your devices (Phone, Laptop, Computer, whatever).

Having an easily traceable digital footprint DOOMS you for failure in the Babel State.

USE A VPN OR YOU WILL NEVER ESCAPE THE FEMA CAMPS!!!

CC3 endorses Bitcoin. This is a large topic which will be explained elsewhere, but TLDR you NEED to become proficient in Bitcoin and its technologies if you want to have a chance in surviving Babel State.

Any service we have mentioned above ideally will be bought with Bitcoin in a private fashion. For assistance please contact us directly on Signal.

So like when you go to buy Mullvad VPN, DO NOT PUT IN YOUR CARD. I will buy you a month to get you off the ground running, just PLEASE DO NOT USE YOUR BANK CARD TO BUY ANY OF THIS STUFF

This is the last step because its not an immediate concern, but something you defintely want to get to doing.

CC3 officially CONDEMNS Windows and Mac. They are just telemetry collecting machines and painfully inefficient and slow and all that.

CC3 endorses any mainstream Linux Distro. Look for lightweight ones, or whatever suits your needs. I like Ubuntu/Debian. Its easy, yet it will also force you to "technologically grow" and problem solve. If you want the cleanest and easiest out of the box experience, use Linux Mint. Mint can be used by your grandma. Its pretty much Windows if it was a good operating system.

SWITCH TO LINUX BEFORE ITS TOO LATE!!!

This rather crude guide covers a lot with few words and shallow depth. Its meant to get the ideas in your head and give you a head start. Please reach out directly with any questions.

These things, while simple, will actually change your life and allow you to sleep at night with peace of mind.

Thank you all for your attention to this matter!!!
