Realistically speaking, how (in)secure is risky shitposting or viewing/replying in illegal or suspicious threads on 4chan, 8chan and other imageboards?

I figure that 4chan is obviously less safe (no TOR, archives, subpoenas+logs, Google CAPTCHA) but is it even a realistic risk so long as you aren't messing with football or exploding vans?

i have a limited idea of what i am talking about

xml, sgml, svg and html are not designed for security primarily, but the most damage is going to come from javascript and non-text (jpegs, mpegs, swf animations, binary applications with malware on github)

the biggest insecurity is the Luser, followed by the browser software's design (Firefox loves WebRTC and used to love NPAPI plugins, Chrome loves Flash, both love JavaScript and compilation in the browser). Since imageboards are built to support less Js than mainstay Web 2.0+ adwhores, imageboards are more secure by default. Just watch your OpSec, bucko

8chan is logging everything you do now due to fosta. Every thread you view, every picture you expand, and every response you post is ip logged and recorded indefinitely.

Use tor and/or vpn, use the 8ch .onion. Consider 8ch to be completely unsecure.

I live in South Africa. How worried should I be?

I think you have larger problems then 8ch's ip logging. Use tor if you don't want the rampaging niggers to see your going to 8ch and use a tor bridge if you don't want them to see you using tor. tor bridges aren't foolproof, you can connect to a vpn first, then connect to tor.

Nevermind the IB security, living in that cesspool should be an immediate worry

Surely you mean cloudflare? The proxy that "removes SSL here ;^)" and handles traffic for tons of websites? Surely there's no cianiggers tapping directly into that handy-handy chokepoint?

>not only posting on 8chan with the TOR service with javascript disabled while using a proxy and a VPN that doesn't keep logs located in a third-world country which you paid for with bitcoin that you bought with cash in-person and then sent through multiple anonymizing services

its like you want to be tracked

Why would you use a VPN with that? It only makes you less secure.

As opposed to Endchan, Mewch and Lainchan who prize their users privacy so much they are going to completely ignore DMCA and even FOSTA.

Whoever isn't willing to be arrested in your behalf doesn't deserve your respect. Fuck Jim!
