yeah but no when people refer to the arrest of the activist they refer to the french case I mentioned. This is not related and nobody cared.
| With this Native Windows 10/11 utility, you can just trigger a Trim on your SSD which should be more than enough to securely clean all deleted files that somehow would have escaped Trim when deleting them. | ||

| Just open Windows Explorer, Right Click on your System Drive and click Properties. Select Tools. Click Optimize and then Optimize again. You are done. That is probably enough in my opinion. | ||

Why are we de-fragmenting the SSD?

We're not ... it will only Trim on SSDs and Defrag on HDD ... it's just a weird naming. Should be OR. And Should be Trim or defragment. But it's written like that in their own docs and app.

A fair point. But we should probably fix this in the document.

You mean mention that clicking this will perform a Trim operation?

It seems to be they should have changed this to be more clear, because it makes no sense to defragment an SSD. Only HDDs benefit from this and they are slower as a result of how they're designed. We should at least point this out?

I prefer to keep the text from the MS doc and the app ... but I'll add it's making a trim.

I did this because it's oudated temporarily ... I will change the temporarily unavail to outdated, use the online version

Ah, it is outdated. I think focus has been on the Markdown and the PDF not the ODT, or any other format possible with pandoc.

Replaced the "I would" by "We would" and added a recommendation for extra paranoid people to use safest level in Tor by default.
ODT is outdated and we recommend the online version atm

Please split this into multiple smaller PRs. Due to the changes made to this PR, the review I had worked on is no longer valid, and I'm not about to review a PR this large twice. |
|
I realize I may not have been clear about this project's expectations for submitting updates to PRs that have already started review, so I updated CONTRIBUTING.md to try to be more clear. In the future:
|
|
Patch it out and start a new PR or stash and revert then pull the master and simply apply the patch again and commit it (and add the review branch changes), either way works. We can review later. |
From above our table to below our table at end of section to privilege our content which should be updated, fact checked and correct.
Removal of: Yes, this guide has a discord server, and a Twitter account despite those not being recommended at all for their stance on privacy and their struggle with anonymity. But this is about me acting appropriately in making this guide available to the many and conveniently using my experience and knowledge to do so as anonymously as possible.
Phone verification is pretty much always required now
Uh oh!
