Stealth @forum.guncadindex.com Identity concealment through language scrambling
There are many aspects of operational security (opsec) to be mindful of when posting in online communities or revealing any part of your identity. In this community, there is an immediate need for good operational security, and those who aren't careful enough will face the consequences of their mistakes.
There are obvious points to secure, such as not linking real identities to those in this space, but one of the most overlooked issues is a form of fingerprinting through matching vocabulary.
Each person has unique language styles, and this becomes more apparent the more they write. If you only write short sentences or keep discussions brief, it's harder to match your language patterns with another identity, as there are fewer chances for unique linguistic patterns to emerge. However, if you contribute extensively to this space (and such individuals are often targeted using this approach), you are likely to write large amounts of text, such as in forums or PDFs. This can provide ample
Stealth @forum.guncadindex.com Securing Mobile Platforms
Never buy “ready private phones” or devices with preinstalled “privacy” software. If you want a phone with strong privacy protections, install GrapheneOS on a Google Pixel.
Most phone operating systems on standard hardware (stock Android, iOS) are vulnerable to tools like Cellebrite and other forensic/remote attacks. GrapheneOS is significantly more secure.
Many mobile apps depend on Google Play Services, which includes features that undermine privacy. microG is an open-source reimplementation that lets some apps run on a de‑googled device, but it is not compatible with all apps.
Using two devices is recommended: one for everyday activities (social accounts, general browsing) and a second, locked‑down device for sensitive tasks. Some apps collect extensive logs and metadata even when they claim to be private.
Strong end‑to‑end encrypted messaging apps to consider:
- SimpleX (strong privacy features)
- Session Messenger
- Signal (easiest transition for W

General Discussion @forum.guncadindex.com Hybrid High Caliber Weapons
I'm interested in helping research towards making higher-caliber weapons possible with fully DIY components. I'm still not that well versed in weapon design and I know many people here have more experience with converting components so the main thing I'd like to know is what limitations need to be overcome?
I have an idea for the ECM taper that may work but it's yet to be tested. The other complexity is the bolt carrier group and the locking mechanism but I think that can be made with guides. The other consideration is the gas system, a section could be attached to the gas port without welding with a clamp but then I'm not sure if direct impingement or a piston system is the way to go.
Any help is appreciated.
