Hi all,

I just discovered this device and ordered one.

https://plugos.net/plugmate

Is anyone using it already and if so how does it perform?

Regards
Stefan

Interesting but it doesn't cross to my preferred platform. For $200 I'll
stick to Tails on a $5 USB drive.

I use Tails too, but you can't AFAIK plug-in Tails on an Internet Caf|- PC
or public library PC etc., which is IMHO very important for anonymous communications, with proper anonymizing software.

Yeah and you can also run Linux Mint and other distros from a USB drive.

Sending anonymous email from an Internet cafe / public library. LOL

Believe or not, an Internet Caf|- which I frequently visit is run by
turkish folks and there are no cameras etc. installed, except those
little ones for PC usage, like for video conferences and those ones
can be turned around.

Didn't Ross Ulbricht get caught in a library...

They certainly wouldn't want videos of the jihadis using their services :)
I watch too many spy movies.

Smarty, tell us how to send anonymous emails and files, without
an own device, in public places!

People see patterns with your posts, calling me an FBI man, which
I am certainly not.

So, what do you try to gain from spreading such lies? Mature adults,
with a brain, are raising an eyebrow when reading your posts, bub!

I will in the future remove funding links and then the new YAMN
Mixfit GUI client must be purchased on the MicroSoft Store or
Android Play Store. This helps to grow anonymous remailing and
allows me to use the funds for later purchase of Apple devices,
so that I can release software for Apple users too.

The GUI client will then be age restricted, so that it can only be
purchased if you are +18 years old and will have a README, pointing
to a.p.a-s.

Once this is done I will then release a monthly a.p.a-s or similiar FAQ
here and pointing the many thousands of NymVPN users to this Newsgroup,
so that they can see the table manners of some anon users here. The
reason for this, port 119 and 563 is available now for NymVPN users. :-)
