Was wondering if anyone here knew anything about proper data sanitation when it came to an OS's digital fingerprint.
Say for example hypothetically that one wanted to connect to a proxy server though a neighbors hacked WPA2 Network. What could the neighbors or more likely the feds tell from the logs. The MAC address of my Wi-Fi card, the hardware address of my OS?
Are there any good resources/Blackhat forum discussions about this issue and how to protect ones self from it. I read in Edward Snowdens autobiography that when he was trying to contact journalists to divulge his whistleblower data he used public wifi and Tails as it is a Amnesic-Live OS meaning it generates a new mac address on every restart. Is this enough to protect me from the feds tracing the actively on the hacked network back to my computer or are there other things I should be concerned about?
All suggestions are welcome, I have tired searching or answers be have found no good discussions on the topics.
