      Recurring transactions make you much less anonymous in terms of traffic analysis because it gives them more information to correlate. If you absolutely insist on doing this it’s better to do it all at once, or at least not recurring regularly. You must also avoid giving any data to untrusted third parties and use a properly secured device.

      1 I hope it is not exactly $100/month because this is a very public place to mention those kind of details that can lead them to find you.

      2 how did you set up these recurring payments? Are you making these payments through any other third party companies? If so, they can track you. Hopefully you were just using Monero’s wallet and this institution’s monero address to keep all of the relevant data on Monero to have the fewest number of parties have info on your transactions.

      3 I don’t know if $100 in monero is a good deal of money worth following.

      4 Maybe if the monero address is visible as an FBI front, but thats only if they can follow the transaction with quantum computing and AI, which I’m not good enough to tell you. Fhe FBI has done sting operations on people to make a point, but as long as you trust that the address you were paying is that org, I think you might be ok.

      5 Just as a word of caution, it can’t hurt to use tor as a browser with a first bridge that you know is not the FBI. Use Qubes or tails operating system when you REALLY need privacy. maybe just use Tails OS when you make these payments and nothing else.

        Is it prívate enough to use Tails on my every computer in or should I get a especial computer just for it to add more privacy?

          If you can afford to get another computer, maybe get one that has coreboot. You can buy it with coreboot or see if coreboot is supported to disable intel management engine. Last I checked Qubes doesn’t support UEFI.

          https://support.system76.com/articles/open-firmware-systems/ You can buy core boot computers if you want to do it that way. You can also look up on tor how to add coreboot to existing computers to prevent yourself from having a trail that would indicate that you have a coreboot/libreboot computer. Alot of work, but your enemy is uncle sam.

          I think it is good to keep one profile/computer for revolutionary activity and maybe have your other computer for normie stuff.
