0. Purpose of guide

I'm making this guide because I've noticed a lot of people being dumb and sharing personal information, then getting scared they might get doxxed. This creates all kinds of stress and drama. It might even worsen your life. The sooner you learn to keep yourself safe on the internet the better.

1. Fuck social media

Social media is the bane of the internet, period. It encourages you to put your life on display for the world to see, and it's a gigantic waste of time. At least sites like here and Reddit allow you to hold a proper conversation which if you're smart you'll use to learn and grow by asking questions and debating with people. You can't effectively do that on social media like Twitter or Facebook. But there's also nothing wrong with having fun. Social media's original purpose was to make it easier to connect with long distance friends and family. If you want to use social media you should keep it exclusively to that; don't share it with random strangers on the internet. Ever. That's how you dox yourself.

2. Compartmentalize your internet life

This means you want to have different usernames and different emails for each section of the internet. For example keep your social media life strictly separate from the rest of your internet life. Use a different username and email. Like I've got several different emails and each one is associate with a different username which is associated with different sections of my internet life. To demonstrate, I have my mainstream presence which is prim and proper, and my "other" presence which you see here and on other free speech sites.

My mainstream presence is where I'm not controversial and I don't generally talk about things that upset people. My extremely limited social media presence is combined with this, but if you want a larger social media presence ideally you would keep it separate but you don't have to, so long as you follow rule 3 that's next.

My "other" presence is where I'm far more controversial, where I can discuss my true feelings and express my true nature, on sites like here. This absolutely must be kept entirely separate from all other internet lives. This is the mistake some of you make and it keeps biting you in the ass.

And you should also have a false, throwaway presence mainly for use on sites where you aren't sure about their legitimacy and if things go awry you don't mess up your important presences. Mainly this is an email, so that if the site is untrustworthy and sells your information you aren't bombarded with spam on the accounts you do care about, and if it gets doxxed it can't be traced to anything you care about it either.

Never use more than one presence on the same site, it's an excellent way to dox yourself and the two presences linked together. Just don't do it.

3. Never reveal your personal information anywhere, for any reason

Exceptions of course for things like your bank, job, and places of business where you make purchases. Instead I'm referring to places like here, Reddit, Twitter, and so on. Only the people in real life need to know your real name, not strangers on the internet. This includes your social media presence. I strongly encourage you to use a fake name or real life exclusive nickname and have your settings set to friends only so random people can't see what you're doing. Absolutely NEVER tell people your real name or share pictures of yourself on the internet outside of your separate social media account. Never ever share nudes anywhere. People WILL spread them around and it's a great way to get doxxed, and if it got linked to your proper life you can get into some trouble.

Furthermore don't tell anyone in real life the usernames or emails of your non-social media accounts (which should also be separate). This way your "other" presence cannot possibly be associated with you in any way. So when people try to threaten doxxing, well they can't because you've kept things compartmentalized and your real life is safe.

Examples of things to NOT tell people about: first name, last name, date of birth, year of birth, address, state/city, job specifics, school specifics, pictures of yourself or family members or where you live

Things that are vague and ok to tell people: age range (20's, 30's, etc.), country, gender, race, sexuality. Feel free to keep even these a secret, doing so will only make you safer.

Furthermore you need to keep in mind what you share and reveal on each presence. For example, I've shared pictures of my cat on my mainstream account, therefore I do not share such pictures anywhere else because a clever and industrious fellow might be able to somehow figure out it's the same cat and link my accounts together. I talk about video games a lot on my mainstream, therefore I rarely discuss video games elsewhere and if I do it's vague, because if you discuss the same topic in the same way in both presences it can possibly give you away. I discuss furries here on my "other" account, therefore furries do not have a presence on my mainstream account. And many other such examples. Basically you need to keep your passions and hobbies separate and associated with only a single presence at a time. If somehow someone sees two different accounts discussing the same hobby in the same way, they might be able to link them together. This is paranoia yes, but it will keep you safe and free of doxxing.

4. Don't give in to peer pressure

No matter how people try to convince you or threaten you to reveal personal information about yourself, never do it. A true internet friend will understand and respect your privacy. If someone is trying to peer pressure you and won't take no for an answer, then stop talking to them and unfriend them. Your life will be better for it. And if you have the inherent urge to share personal information including photos to people you don't know in real life, then you need to work on yourself and get rid of those urges, because they will not help you and can only bring stress and difficulty in the long run.

5. "How do I start?"

You may need to do a complete reset of your internet life. A lot of you have been fools and mixed everything together. Delete what accounts you can and scrub everything that you can, and start over. You can probably keep your social media presence if you posted a lot of pictures of yourself and have lots of real friends and family, just delete everything you want to separate into an "other" presence.

But you may need to truly start over. Abandon your random internet friends and delete literally everything and truly start over from scratch. Sounds harsh and a big deal, but in the long run it will be better for you. Unfortunately if you've been foolish to share your personal pictures around, they can't all be deleted, and if you restart your social media presence they might be linked back to you, especially if the old pictures were shared on places you want to become your "other" presence. Hence why I said earlier to have your social media private and exclusive so such pictures can't be so easily linked. And again, ideally don't have any such social media presence at all and then you need not worry about said old pictures getting linked to you.

Recap, tl;dr

Don't use social media, but if you must then limit what you put there and make it private and exclusive.

Keep different parts of your internet life strictly separate using different emails and usernames. Particularly things that would be awkward or hurtful if it got linked to your more public and proper internet life.

Never reveal personal information to anybody for any reason, no matter how they try to peer pressure you.

You may need to start your internet lives over from scratch.

China

as it is known in Thailand, was a violent crackdown by Thai police and lynching by right-wing paramilitaries and bystanders against left-wing protesters who had occupied Bangkok's Thammasat University and adjacent Sanam Luang, on October 6, 1976. Before Following the massacre, thousands of leftists, including students, workers and others, had been holding ongoing demonstrations against the return of former dictator Thanom Kittikachorna Thailand since mid-September. Official reports indicate that 46 were killed (on both sides) and 167 were injured, while unofficial reports indicate that more than 100 protesters were killed. In the "October 6 Documentation" project, Thongchai Winichakul argued that the official death toll should be 45, including 40 protesters and 5 perpetrators, because one protester died in jail after the incident.

just sharing this due to how dangerous 3 of these men are.
