Go Invisible - Stop NSA Tracking

With all the government agencies aiming to compromise your privacy - mostly the NSA - It seems proper to take a moment to explain ways to thwart this illegal breach of your privacy.

1) Switch to Linux. Microsoft is part of the NSA's PRISM project, making a Windows computer vulnerable to tracking.
2) Chat with Pidgin usuing the OTR plugin. This offers End-to-End encryption.
3) Use Tor to browse the internet. Tor is largely untraceable, if you know how to use properly.
4) Make calls with Silent Circle. This also offers End-to-End encryption, but for calls.
5) Use the GNU Privacy Assistant (GPA) to encrypt messages for those who also have it and can decrypt what you send them.

Best of luck!
