So I've been reading a lot about proper OPSEC and not sure if this is the correct subtforum to post to or OPSEC but I guess I'll find out.
Here's what I do. Boot tails from usb flash, connect to tor. no wifi, just ethernet straight to my home router. Configure settings on tor to "safest".
As a second line of defense, I even do the about:config to make sure javascript is off (Oddly enough, it is usually still on even when I set my browser to safest. Maybe it takes time?) Once I have my browser secure, I then import my saved bookmarks (which I'm starting to wonder is a good idea). And then navigate to the site I want. I always pgp my address and any identifying info. I verify links (most of the time). I verify signatures.
Is there more I could be doing? I use tails on a usb stick but sometimes I boot from a different computer, a better performing computer which also happens to be my personal computer, which I don't love but it's soooo much faster. Is there anything I'm missing or is there anything I could be doing better or more of? ANY feedback would be greatly appreciated. I'm not a complete noob, been fkn around on the dn for over a year now. But still get nervous that I'm missing something. Anyone relate?

The thumbstick will boot from almost any computer. Just make sure to select the USB drive in the boot options (hit F10/F12/Esc, depends on the machine, it'll show while booting up, to enter the boot options).
I don't save bookmarks. Instead, I keep anything like that I want to save in a KeePass file.

Don't feel that way. Be proud that you care! You are educating yourself, /u/fan_of_tforum. Not many people put in the effort. I applaud you.
