they are using Tor Browser…
If you are not using Tor, here is how the government or any sufficiently powerful organization can be knocking at your door in the next 2 hours or less if you post some UMEFFI thread with your “anonymous” account…
Step 1) Get your IP Address:
This one can be easily acquired from ktalk system admins or ktalk’s webhosting provider… it’s not just ktalk, any other website except those in the darknet can freely share your information with security agencies, wanaambiwa to it is a matter of national security, no questions asked
Step 2) Get your internet provider:
Given the IP address, CCK or KENIC can check which internet provider is the owner of that IP address be it safaricom, airtel or zuku
Step 3) Get your full names, phone numbers and location
Of course, your internet provider knows your location, the mobile internet provider even knows your real-time location and location history
Step 4) Get some bonus information
Of course, now they are using this contact information to aggregate data from all devices you are using, all the workplace and public wifi you have used will be available. They will be able to tell what time you wake up, how many meals and beers you take in a day, even the number of lanyes you are doing per week …
How TOR protects you:
Personally I don’t use it coz it is slow as fuck compared to other browsers especially when watching videos… but apparently this freaky app bounces every single internet request across over 1000s servers in all continents incuding Antarctica :D:D:D and the information is encapsulated in such a way that none of the servers knows the source or destination of such a request… it’s a fucking amazing piece of tech… nowonder big tech companies like Google don’t allow Tor browsers in their websites, coz they can’t afford to lose access to your little dirty secrets
Msiseme VPN can also work, coz your VPN provider has access to information about you which he can share akifinywa makende vizuri…
