<h2><b>OPSEC Recommendations</b></h2>
<p>Each identity should have a distinct virtual environment, using a dedicated VM with specific configurations:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Public Identity:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Hardware: Laptop / Desktop Computer</li>
<li>Host OS: Any preferred OS</li>
<li>VM: <a href="../hypervisorsetup/index.html">Basic Windows VM</a></li>

<li><strong>Private Identity:</strong>
<ul>
<li>Hardware: Laptop / Desktop Computer</li>
<li>Host OS: <a href="../linux/index.html">Linux</a> (e.g., Debian)</li>
<li>VM: Linux-based VM (Debian or Ubuntu)</li>

<!-- Why Maintain Multiple Identities? -->
<div id="anon2">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-lg-offset-2">
<h3><b>Why Maintain Multiple Online Identities?</b></h3>
<p>In the digital age, entities like advertisers, corporations, and hackers constantly monitor online activity. Using a single identity for everything allows these actors to build comprehensive profiles about you, threatening your privacy.</p>
<p>Multiple identities help compartmentalize your activities. This approach minimizes the risk of data leakage, prevents profiling, and puts you in control of what information is shared.</p>
<h3><b>What We'll Be Doing</b></h3>
<p>Well create multiple VMs dedicated to different types of internet activities:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Public Identity:</strong> Real-world activities linked to your true identity.</li>
<li><strong>Private Identity:</strong> Privacy-focused activities that dont require anonymity.</li>
<li><strong>Anonymous Identity:</strong> Activities requiring anonymity (e.g., whistleblowing).</li>
<li><strong>Sensitive Identity:</strong> Highly secure activities where plausible deniability is crucial.</li>
</ul>
<p>Each identity will have a unique persona, distinct writing style, and separate digital environment. Complete isolation will be maintained by using separate VMs and following strict operational security practices.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>

<!-- Setting Up Multiple Identities -->
<div id="anon3">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-lg-offset-2">
<h2><b>Setting Up Multiple Identities</b></h2>
<p>Start by defining distinct identities with clear boundaries:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Public Identity (Alice Liddell):</strong> Real name, linked to real-world activities.</li>
<li><strong>Private Identity (Bob Marley):</strong> Pseudonym, may reveal the real name if necessary.</li>
<li><strong>Anonymous Identity (Charlie Chaplin):</strong> No real identity linkage, anonymous persona.</li>
<li><strong>Sensitive Identity (Dave Mustaine):</strong> Completely anonymous, sensitive activities only.</li>
</ul>
<p>Each identity should exhibit different behaviors and writing styles to avoid detection via linguistic analysis.</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Character Building Section -->
<div id="anon2">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-lg-offset-2">
<h2><b>Building the Characters</b></h2>
<p>Follow these principles when building each character:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Distinctiveness:</strong> Each identity should have unique traits and online behavior.</li>
<li><strong>Separation:</strong> Identities should never interact or reference each other.</li>
<li><strong>Isolation:</strong> Services, accounts, or data should not be shared across identities. Your identities should never interact in any way, nor should they know about each others existence.</li>
<li><strong>Dedicated VM for Each Identity:</strong> Use separate VMs as described in the OPSEC section.</li>
</ul>
<p>Below is a diagram showing how to build each character:</p>
<p>
<img src="characters.png" class="imgRz" alt="Character Building Diagram">
</p>
<p><b>Example Character Profiles:</b></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Alice Liddell:</strong> Tech enthusiast, writes formally on open-source software forums. Formal, technical, and informative. Uses industry-specific jargon and includes references to technical documentation.</li>
<li><strong>Bob Marley:</strong> Music fan, uses casual language, active on music-related forums. Conversational and relaxed, often using slang or informal language. References musical terms and uses expressive language.</li>
<li><strong>Charlie Chaplin:</strong> Anonymity advocate, terse language, posts in privacy-focused communities. Terse, direct, and factual. Avoids personal anecdotes and uses technical language related to privacy and security.</li>
<li><strong>Dave Mustaine:</strong> Security expert, concise and secretive, uses encrypted channels only. Short, concise, and serious. Uses formal language and avoids any expressions that might reveal personal details or writing habits.</li>
</ul>
<h3><b>Character Interaction (Example)</b></h3>
<p>While these characters should never interact in reality, the following example illustrates how different identities can be made to appear distinct even when discussing the same topic. The brief interaction below is provided for demonstration purposes.</p>
<p><b>Forum Topic:</b> "Is Basic Security Enough for Online Privacy?"</p>
<blockquote>
<p><b>Alice Liddell:</b> "Basic security is a good start, but it's crucial to adopt more advanced measures as your digital footprint grows."</p>
<p><b>Bob Marley:</b> "tru but who wants to stress over all that? just keep it simple and dont click on sketchy stuff and youll be fine, mon."</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This example showcases the differences between Alice and Bob:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Alice Liddell:</strong> Uses a formal and cautious approach, advocating for the adoption of advanced security practices as an essential step.</li>
<li><strong>Bob Marley:</strong> Takes a laid-back attitude, suggesting that keeping things simple and using common sense is sufficient.</li>
</ul>
<p>The differences in tone, vocabulary, and approach clearly distinguish the two characters, reinforcing the separation between their online personas.</p>

<!-- Stylometry Section -->
<div id="anon3">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-8 col-lg-offset-2">
<h2><b>Stylometry: Risks and Real-World Cases</b></h2>
<p>Stylometry analyzes writing style to link identities. Consider these real-world examples:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/how-did-computers-uncover-jk-rowlings-pseudonym-180949824/">J.K. Rowling</a>: Revealed as the author of *The Cuckoo's Calling* through linguistic clues.</li>
<li><a href="https://theconversation.com/how-the-unabombers-unique-linguistic-fingerprints-led-to-his-capture-207681">Ted Kaczynski</a>: The Unabomber was caught due to similarities in writing style.</li>
</ul>
<p>To mitigate stylometry risks:</p>
<ul>
<li>Vary your writing style, sentence structure, and vocabulary or use a local LLM to rewrite your messages before sending them.</li>
<li>Avoid using distinctive punctuation or spelling patterns.</li>
<li>Use paraphrasing tools or AI assistance to diversify your style.</li>
</ul>

<h2><b>The structure of your mind </b></h2>
<p>When we're talking about resetting the mind, we're talking about the following variables:</p>
<img src="1.png" class="imgRz">
<pre><code class="nim">
What you identify with
What you believe
What your compulsions are
</code></pre>
<p>There is a common belief that people have, that for some reason these are determined from the start and they cannot be changed.</p>
<p>Over time, the more identified you are with those 3 facets of your mind, the more you reinforce them, with enough cycles. At some point they may become so reinforced that you cannot just break free from the cycles you have indulged into, and you may feel trapped within your own mind. That is usually where depression comes from, your inability to rewrite your mind as you see fit, essentially a loss of control over your own mind.</p>
<p>Control over your own mind is something you need to practice every day, if you want to make sure it keeps doing what you want it to do.</p>
<p>Now one facet of your own mind is that you can't just start thinking in terms of <b>"Ok now do not think about monkeys!"</b>. Your mind is like a car with no brakes, wherever you press it, it goes further into that direction.</p>
<p>Now the thing is, your intellect is like a knife. It is there to dissect. And your identities that you have picked up are all hands, that grab onto that knife. <b>The more identities you pick up, the more uncontrollable your handling of the knife is, the least you are able to have a quiet mind.</b> </p>
<p><b>Until you completely get rid of all of those things you are not, it's going to remain an ongoing mental diarrhea, you'll never be able to stop your mind.</b></p>
<p>But it doesn't stop there, you are also beliveing things that you do not truly know, If you think you know everything, how the hell can you sit still and shut up ? It's never going to happen.</p>
<p>And you may have picked up compulsions aswell over time, things that you think you want, and things that you think you need. You won't be able to sit still either if you keep believing you need and want those things.</p>
<p>Without being able to reset your mind to wire it the way you want it to be wired, you won't ever know peace of mind.</p>

<h2><b>Is it normal to follow the norm ?</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>Suppose you are on the road, driving at full speed. Are you more at peace when you see that there is nothing obstructing the road, or when there are obstacles on the highway ?</p>
<p>Suppose you are trying to enjoy the sun outdoors, do you want there to be anything obstructing the sunrays from reaching you? </p>
<p>This is all you are doing when taking up identities, beliefs, compulsions, and allowing them to permanently stick to you.</p>
<p>You have taken up masks after masks, placed it on your face, one on top of the other, and now they have begun to stick to your face. You are unable to take them off without being in pain. Over time you may have even given up trying to remove them, and probably you have even started to accept this mess as your new normal.</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
After all, everyone's like that, why does it matter if i become like them aswell, i'll fit right in !
</pre></code>
<p>Thing is, even if you're in a madhouse where being mad is considered being normal, you better stay mentally sane and refuse to fit in, especially if you want the ones that are stuck there to come back to mental stability one day. </p>
<p><b>In this madhouse of a world where everyone has lost their way, whoever truly has clarity will initially be percieved as mad, but only the sane one realizes that everyone's been mad the whole time.</b> </p>
<p>This is where the crux of the problem is, the less you exert your ability to choose how to be, how your body is, how your mind is, how your emotions are, how your very life energy is, the least control you have over it. When you start making it normal to loose control over them, do not be surprised that they start to deteriorate and break down.</p>
<p>Which is normal ? Is it normal to throw your hands up and just proclaim that you are only human ? Or is normal to refuse to accept your current limitations as being normal ? Are you going to accept being forever stuck in your current state of being ? </p>
<p>Do you seriously believe that this body of yours, and this mind of yours, were designed to produce suffering ? On the contrary, they are designed to produce incredible levels of wellbeing.</p>
<p>To be able to evolve from where you currently are, into the one you are supposed to become, you must be willing to lay waste to everything that you believe you want, need, know, and are. <b>However, the necessary dissolution that needs to happen is not physical in nature. It is of a mental nature.</b></p>

<h2><b>Nihilism: in Nothing we trust</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>In philosophy, nihilism; from Latin nihil 'nothing') is any viewpoint, or a family of views, that rejects generally accepted or fundamental aspects of human existence, namely knowledge, morality, or meaning.</p>
<p>While it is often mistaken for pessimism and depression due to being about "Nothing", Nihilism counterintuitively is actually essential to your mental health, especially if you have concretized thought patterns, and reinforced identities and beliefs.</p>
<p>Your inability to control your own mind comes from having all those identities, beliefs, and compulsions. <b>Your inability to control your mind is the only reason you are miserable.</b></p>
<p>It's about time you start to take back control over your own mind. What happens outside of you may not always be in your control, but <b>Everything that happens within you is 100% in your control if you choose it to be</b>. Let's take back control of it shall we ?</p>
</br>
<img src="2.png" class="imgRz">
<p>My approach to Nihilism is structured around the 3 main variables that can be influenced over your own mind, your identities, your beliefs and your compulsions.</p>
<p>It is composed of 3 Mantras, each are designed to dissolve a facet of your own current way of thinking and your current way of percieving things.</p>
<p><b><u>The Three Nihilism Mantras:</u></b></p>
<pre><code class="nim">
<a href="../sum-nihil/index.html">Sum Nihil:</a> to dissolve your identities
Inhalation: I am nothing,
Exhalation: I am noone
<a href="../scio-nihil/index.html">Scio Nihil:</a> to dissolve your beliefs
Inhalation: I know nothing,
Exhalation: I know nothing else
<a href="../opus-nihil/index.html">Opus Nihil:</a> to dissolve your compulsions
Inhalation: I want nothing,
Exhalation: I need nothing
</code></pre>
<p>None of those sentences may make sense at first, but in their own way these are all deeply rooted in reality (<b>i have rewritten them more than 50 times over the course of the last 10 years, with daily use</b>). There is a way to percieve each mantra, in a way that makes sense, <u>to give it additional weight as a fundamental reality that shouldn't be forgotten</u>, upon mentally uttering them. </p>
<ol>
<li><a href="../sum-nihil/index.html">Sum Nihil</a>: Do you truly matter in the grand scheme of things? Among 8 billion humans, Are you truly as special as you think ?</li>
<li><a href="../scio-nihil/index.html">Scio Nihil</a>: How can you possibily know anything at all ? Do you realize the magnitude of your own ignorance ?</li>
<li><a href="../opus-nihil/index.html">Opus Nihil</a>: What is it that you truly want ? What is it that you truly need ? What do you even need to survive ?</li>
</ol>
<p>All you need to make use of them is to sit comfortably in one place, to close your eyes, and to intentionally and repeatedly, mentally utter each sentence in synchronisation with your breath.</p>
<p>Each thought being mentally uttered, must last the entire duration of the Inhalation or Exhalation. Given the level of focus it takes to maintain it over long stretches of time, if you are doing it correctly, you shouldn't be able to fall asleep while doing it, especially if you are intentionally slowing down your breath the whole time.</p>
<p>Give it a solid try (do it <b>once a day for at least 5 minutes at a time</b>) if your mind hasn't stopped producing internal suffering for a long time. </p>
<p>One of the first signs that this is working, is if when you stop uttering the mantras, and just breathe normally without eyes still closed, <b>your mind should be able to remain at ease, without thinking unecessarily.</b> You will be able to enjoy the sunrise in the morning, you may rediscover small things that you may have forgotten about, such as how beautiful nature can be, and how peaceful it can be. </p>
<p>Keep in mind that this is to remain a daily practice, it can be practiced whenever you have a few minutes to sit by yourself, quietly with your eyes closed. </p>
<p>Make no mistake, it is very easy to fall back in the trap of being identified with things that you are not, believe things that you do not truly know, and fall into new compulsory behaviors. But at least when you are taking a break from the madness, you are able to see when you are stepping into it and when you are stepping out of it.</p>
<p><b>The virtue in annihilating everything that is not truly you, is because in the end, Only the real you will remain</b>, and the real you, while being ineffable, and impossible to describe with words, is perfect in every way.</p>

<h1>Scio Nihil: Dissolving Beliefs </h1>
<pre><code class="nim">
There is a Fire, burning wherever I went, through time, I learned, and learned, and learned.
But the more i learned, the more i realized how little i truly knew. That fire grew uncomfortably big, bigger than i ever thought it would get.
[...] Not knowing hurts me, why do i need to know in the first place? I don't care, I'll assume, and believe instead.
One day, Aristotle was walking on the beach. A glorious sunset was happening, but he had no time for such petty daily events. He was thinking seriously about some great problem of existence, because for Aristotle, existence is a problem, and he believes he is going to solve it. Thinking seriously, he was walking up and down the beach. There was another man on the beach who was doing something very intensely so intensely that even Aristotle could not ignore him.
But suddenly, the fire got extinguished.
You know, people who think too much about their own nonsense end up ignoring life around them. They are the people who dont smile at anybody or even look at anybody in the world. They have no eyes to look at a flower, a sunset, a child or a smiling face or if it is an unsmiling face, they have no inclination to make it smile; they have no such small duties or small cares in the world! They ignore all the life around them because they are all busy, solving the problems of existence.
But Aristotle could not ignore this man, and he closely observed what he was doing: this man was going to the ocean, coming back, going to the ocean, coming back, all with great intensity. So Aristotle stopped and asked, “Hey, what are you up to?”
The man said, “Dont disturb me, I am doing something very important,” and went on and on.
Aristotle became even more curious and asked, “What are you doing?”
The man said, “Dont disturb me, something very important.”
Aristotle said, “What is this important thing?”
The man showed a little hole he had dug in the sand, and he said, “I am emptying the ocean into this hole.” He had a tablespoon in his hand.
Aristotle looked at this and laughed. Now, Aristotle is the kind who can spend a year without a single moment of laughter, because he is intellect. It takes a heart to laugh. Intellect cannot laugh; it can only dissect.
But even Aristotle laughed at this and said, “This is ridiculous! You must be insane. Do you know how vast this ocean is? How can you ever empty this ocean into this little hole? And that too, with a tablespoon? At least if you have a bucket, theres some chance. Please give this up; this is madness, I am telling you.”
The man looked at Aristotle, threw the spoon down and said, “My job is already done.”
Aristotle said, “What do you mean? Forget about the ocean being empty; even the hole is not full. How can you say your job is done?”
The other man was Heraclitus. Heraclitus stood up and said, “I am trying to empty the ocean into this hole with a tablespoon. You are telling me its ridiculous, its madness, so I should give it up. What are you trying to do? <b>Do you know how vast this existence is? It can contain a billion oceans like this and more, and you are trying to empty it into the small hole of your head and with what? With tablespoons called thoughts. Please give it up. Its utterly ridiculous.</b>

<h2><b>Nihilism: Dissolving Compulsions</b></h2> </br> </br>
<h2><b>Nihilism: Dissolving Beliefs</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>Modern Nihilism, as i am arrogantly pionnering myself, is a set of sentences, or mantras, to be repeatedly mentally thought of, in order to change yourself from within, this aims to alter your perception, your beliefs, and your actual sense of self.</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
Inhalation: "I want nothing"
Exhalation: "I need nothing"
The second Nihilism Mantra:
Inhalation: "I know nothing"
Exhalation: "I know nothing else"
</code></pre>
<p>It doesn't matter what you currently think you want, or what you think you need. It's an illusion anyway. And to be able to get rid of those compulsions, you need to uproot them from your mind directly.</p>
<p>It is all up to you. <b>Are you going to need a cane to walk forever? Are you going to seek puerile pleasure all your life?</b> Stop being what others want you to be, dissolve it all. Hit that reset button.</p>
<p>Repeat that mantra for a while, <b>keep doing it as long as you need to, until all the poison has been worked out of your system.</b></p>
<p>It doesn't matter how much you believe you know, in the end you're only believing you know something. Words cannot fully encapsulate the true depth and richness of our unfathomable reality. Knowing how to use something does not mean you know what it ultimately is.</p>
<p>These sentences are uttered out of the sense that no matter how much you believe you know, you ultimately cannot know more than an insignificant portion of the existance, if at all you are capable of knowing something.</p>
<p>When even an atom you are unable to know in it's entirety, how can you ever pretend you know anything from there? It is a fundamental reality that people keep forgetting or intentionally ignore.</p>
<p>To bring back the awareness of your own ignorance is fundamental. To be able to know anything, one must first admit that they don't know. Those that pretend to know, for them the possibility of knowing is not even there. </p>
<pre><code class="nim">
"Ignorant of your own ignorance. You no longer interest me."
<p>The lake has not been clear for a very long time, but it needs to become clear again, and to be kept clear.</p>
<p>Once the slate has been wiped clean, once clarity is back, think for a while. <b>What is it that you truly want to do with your life ? What will bring you the most satisfaction, until the very end ?</b></p>
<p>In that moment of clarity, decide for the next 10 years, what will your life be about. Then stick to it, no matter what happens. <b>If your mind deviates from that goal, dissolve the falsehoods again, and again</b>, keep the lake crystal clear, every day, only then will you function at your peak.</p>
</pre></code>
<p>Once the awareness of your own ignorance is brought back into you, as a reality that you keep close to you every day, you'll feel a burning longing to know in you. It may be uncomfortable at first, but that's how it is.</p>

<h1>Sum Nihil: Dissolving the Self </h1>
<p>As the intellect is the knife, the identities that you have picked up are the hands that wield that knife.</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
Just because its sharp, it does not mean itll be effective because sharp intellect or a sharp knife can cause any amount of damage to you.
If you have a sharp knife and you dont have a steady hand, you will cut yourself all over the place.
Thats all thats happening. Human suffering is just this.
You dont know how to hold this intellect in your hand properly. Every day, youre cutting yourself.
All suffering is on self-help because your own mind causing this to you all the time.
No matter what happens, people suffer, whichever way, they suffer, because they dont know how to hold this intellect.
If you had the mind of an earthworm, you would be quite peaceful, yes?
Youre trying to do it in so many ways to reduce the sharpness of the intellect by drink, by drug, by overeating, by doing all kinds of things,
somehow to take away the sharpness because the damn thing hurts.
It hurts not because thats its nature; it hurts because you do not know how to hold it.

<h2><b>Which is more important ?</b></h2>
<p>There is a reality everyone seems to forget, a context to be more precise:</p>
<p>Do you know how big this universe is ? Do you know Where it begins, and where it ends ?</p>
<p>So in this Vast universe there are a few grains of sand that you call the milky way</p>
<p>in these few grains of sand you have got some microscopic particles of that cosmic sand you call the solar system</p>
<p>In those microscopic particles called the solar system, there is a supra-microscopic particle called planet earth</p>
<p>And in that tiny, minuscule planet, in the grand scheme of things, you are a very big and important man are you ? </p>
<p>Step down from your high horse, a little cosmic wind happens and your entire world as you currently percieve it just evaporates. All of those things you believe are very important, your family, your work, your house, your wealth, all those things you identified with up until now, these are all minuscule and insignificant happenings in the grand scheme of things.</p>

<h2><b>Are you truly special ?</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>"Alright, i'm a small happening in the grand scheme of things, but there's no one else like me! Right ?"</p>
<p>How many trillions of humans have walked the earth before you ? Tell me, do you think you are doing anything new ?</p>
<p>Humans have done just about anything for survival, for pleasure, and for control, since the beginning of time.</p>
<p>Just like you and me they were all born, they worked, they reproduced, and they all died at some point.</p>
<p>They all did what they had to do to survive, they reproduced, they got themselves a place to live in, and then they died.</p>
<p>How are you different, from all those people ? Take a good look at the reasons behind what you are doing currently.</p>
<p>As far as i'm concerned, more than 90% of the people on this planet are all doing things for their own selfish interest, one way or the other. Be it for Survival, Pleasure, or Control.</p>
<p>For someone to start acting outside of their own interest, it takes that someone to put himself out of the way of his own actions</p>
<p>Until you completely manage to put yourself out of your own way, and start to act beyond your own interest, you shouldn't think you're any special.</p>

<h2><b>Nihilism: Dissolving the Self</b></h2> </br> </br>
<p>The Third mantra helps to dissolve all the identities you picked up over your life.</p>
<pre><code class="nim">
Third Nihilism Mantra:
Inhalation: I am nothing
Exhalation: I am noone
</code></pre>
<p>As the identities are the hands that wields the intellect, the more identities you pick up, the least able you are to stop yourself from thinking.</p>
<p>This mantra is designed to trim out and get rid off of all the false identities you have picked up, the first thing you may notice after using this mantra for a while, is that you are able to sit still without a thought in your head. If you have gone on for years without having been able to stop your thoughts like i used to be, you'll see that this is going to feel like a huge relief, like a weight has been put down from over your head..</p>
<p>Too many identities also distort your perception, to get rid of them is to bring back your clarity of perception, to see things as they are once again. </p>
<p>You'll see also that it is very easy to fall into the trap of getting identified with things that you are not after that, which is why this mantra is to be practiced very often, to be able to maintain your peace of mind. Over time you'll need to do this less and less as your mind gets used to it.</p>
<p><b>A little distance is all it takes</b>: Suppose you are stuck in traffic for more than 3 hours, from your perception traffic is a horrible thing to be in. But if you go in a hot air balloon, go way up and then look down upon the traffic, you'll now think that traffic is looking preety good!</p>
<p>In the same way, if you spend your whole life on the ground over time you'll end up thinking that the earth is flat, but if i put you in a space rocket to go up in space far enough, with enough distance you'll be able to percieve that the earth is round.</p>
<p>To distance yourself from your thought process is essential to have clarity on what it is doing, and to have clarity on what it should be doing aswell. <b>Yes we're talking neuroplasticity, you don't need to be taking psychedelics anymore with this mantra.</b> With this you are effectively rewriting your way of thinking, trimming out the unecessary patterns, leaving room for the ones that truly matter to you.</p>
