Avoiding lock-ins
All live CD/DVD's focused on anonymity that use tor are based on debian. The debian branch currently suffers from the systemd lock-in.
Candidates
| Distro | Default installer | Init | Graphical installation process | Boots | Default package management | Security applications | Minimalist applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| voidlinux, independent distribution | runit,uedev | CD/DVD and LiveCD | xbps | ||||
| devuan, debian overlay | sysvinit,vdev | CD/DVD | apt |
Emergency Live USB
A minimalist Live USB for emergencies, adapted to our needs. For practice three versions: One version using tor, another with i2p, and one to be determined (for in "cut off" national internets). After that, on demand, based on the likely emergency parameters in local threat models made by gendersec people.
Candidates
| Distro | Default installer | Init | Graphical installation process | Boots | Default package management | Security applications | Minimalist applications |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| liberté linux, gentoo based | USB | none | see Liberté linux, tails, whonix, freepto |
