Like if you want to donate to a website that maintains trackers, or files, do you take steps to make it anon, or just use paypal or whatever? If you do, how do you go about doing that?
Nice try, Special Agent.
Pretty sure special agents already know how to do this (or is that what a special agent would say?)
I wouldn’t say that I go to the effort of making myself unidentifiable, but my “defaults” are with relative anonymity and privacy in mind anyway, ie donations in Monero, anti-fingerprinting, VPN, lack of persistent browser storage, full disk encryption. So I guess I don’t take steps because my regular browsing is already reasonably private, private enough that I don’t feel the need to take extra steps for minor shit like buying drugs online or donating to things. I do take extra steps to make sure there’s no simple way something can be traced to me for more serious stuff but I don’t think making a donation to a piracy website is serious.
In terms of using paypal, unless it’s illegal or criminalised to donate to piracy in your country, it should be fine too. Normally it’s just actually pirating (or sometimes only distributing) that’s illegal so donating shouldn’t be prosecutable, again unless that actually is a law where you live.
Yes. Almost exclusively using crypto.
I don’t want reminders to donate again, I don’t want to be targeted in future marketing campaigns, I don’t want to receive political call to action emails as a ally.
I want to support and be done with it.
that’s so true. I once donated to Wikipedia (technically Wikimedia), and a year later they sent email after email trying to get me to re donate.
Monero

Monero is untraceable. You can swap Bitcoin, or basically any other crypto, for it on decentralized exchanges and once you have Monero it’s a black hole. At least as of now, owning Monero isn’t illegal. And it’s impossible to track once it’s swapped.
Edit: oh, sans Monero. Yeah pretty much.
