So what are some essentials that you guys would recommend for people on the SR or TOR in general?
I don't know if we're allowed to link sites outside of SR so until that is clarified, I guess we can just name what we should get.
TorMail - anonymous mail client
PGP - send/receive/encrypt/decrypt messages (i still don't know how to do this but im going to learn)
SR Account
SR Forums Account
Proxies + Anti-viruses for your computer
that's all I can think of.. feel free to add on

in the meantime if you make purchase before learning pgp you could use:
http://www.hanewin.net/encrypt/PGcrypt.htm
i don't think it is quite as anon as actual pgp but a step up from not using at all

Gpg4win if you're running Windows

Or .... GPG4USB if using Linux

Gpg4win if you're running Windows

GPG4USB for both, actually. And do not use any website-based encryption tools.
