Is there a low cost or free program to hide my IP without slowing everything down?

I don't want google and facebook selling my information, or any other organization monitoring me.

I tried the tor browser but I was told that was too slow and meant for the dark web. HideMyAss seemed slow too.

Any good options out there now? I'm a noob with security.

Thanks for any help guys.

(Edit: come to think of it. Is there any camera's I can set beside my window 30 feet away and have a live feed on my laptop and record? I saw a few on Amazon but some looked cheap and others came with a bunch of camera's and a dvr.)

[Tip] Use powertop --auto-tune!

HI think many of us don't know that powertop has a command-line flag --auto-tune that tunes every setting automatically which means that you can call it on boot to auto-tune! See http://bit.ly/2iDOXN1

As I laptop user I found it quite useful and saw significant decrease (x2) in power consumption. Hope it helps you too. =)

Add-ons to WebExtensions preparation guide for the Firefox 57 "Quantum" upgrade.

I thought it would be a good idea to make together a quick add-ons to web extensions guide and be ready for the Firefox Quantum upgrade tomorrow.

I will begin with important security and privacy addons and their webextension status and what I find out so far.

Security and Privacy addons status:

  • HTTPS Everywhere -> WebExtension available
  • uBlock Origin -> WebExtension available
  • Decentraleyes -> WebExtension available
  • uMatrix -> WebExtension available
  • Privacy Badger -> WebExtension available
  • Random Agent Spoofer -> Support is stopping with Firefox 57. User-Agent Switcher is a webExtension alternative.
  • Self-Destructing Cookies -> Not ready for Quantum at this time. Cookie AutoDelete is a WebExtension alternative.
  • NoScript -> The author is apparently working on a WebExtension version but it's not ready yet according to a dedicated thread about this on the NoScript forum.
  • RefControl -> Referrer Control/Smart Referrer

Mainstream popular addons status:

  • Reddit Enhancement Suite -> WebExtension available
  • Greasemonkey -> WebExtension Available or Violentmonkey

Any new relevant informations or corrections to improve this guide will be welcome. I will update this guide as often as possible. Thank you!
