The website is fine. Please don't detract from the topic. Whonix is unanimously considered the best Linux distribution in terms of privacy and security. You can also run it in Qubes OS. It's intended to run on Virtualbox for now. One VM is for network access, while the other one is connected to the previous VM for said network access, and it's the one you should use. This is to prevent any de-anonymization attacks.

Indeed. For anyone who isn't convinced, I wrote up some details on our use case (creating a training data DMCA safe haven) in the Tails thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37512147

If you're serious about protecting yourself, Whonix is a requirement.

"Unanimously?" By whom?

[ehvatum]

By the ones doing the considering. We get together every spring in Lucern to revise the Book of Considerations.

> "Unanimously?" By whom?

By anyone who has read and understood the technical design pages.[1][2][3]

Those citations appear to be from a single source: the project's own web site.

They might be accurate, but they are not impartial evidence for unanimity or even broad consensus.

The anonymous authority, of course! ;)

*Unonymously

[replwoacause]

Does not work on M1/M2 macs or arm architecture

Guess they weren't part of the anonymous, unanimous considerers.

[bombas]

lol unanimously by who? You?

[musicale]

I said "whom" but I do have the same question.
