Distrust
"We know where you are. We know where you've been. We can more or less know what you're thinking about." Eric Schmidt, Former Google CEO
About Us
Distrust is currently just myself (root@distrust.network), I'm the webmaster, the postmaster, the Nix ninja, and the privacy freak who came up with this concept all in one.
I do not plan to make my identity public, as I see no need for it. What I will say is that I have been contributing to the FOSS community for over a decade now, and I never plan to stop giving back to the community that powers the tools we use to stay private an anonymous online.
What sets apart Distrust from similar services is that we don't want your money. We want a free, private, and non-compromising internet for all. Whether it be you, me writing this, a potential whistleblower, or a religious/racial/sexual/gender minority trying to escape discrimination or persecution.
This is the main driving factor behind our payment model, which aims to cover only the costs of hosting and domain expenses, and donates the rest directly to The TOR Project, one of the largest organisations fighting for digital freedom, all while preserving your anonymity through the use of Bitcoin and Monero payments.
Security
We try to keep things under lock-and-key as much as possible. Remote access into the server is only possible for myself, using an SSH Key that only exists as part of a pin-locked hardware PGP key. This ensures no one but myself can access the server infrastructure.
Failing that, root login is disabled by default, with only a single unpriviliged user accessible via SSH. This user requires a complex password to access sudo, and does not have read or write permissions to any confidential service data.
As proof of our word, our NixOS system configuration is publicly auditable, find links for it on the homepage and in our privacy policy.
Contact
If you have any questions, concerns, or just want to chat, feel free to email me. I try to respond to all emails within 48 hours, weekends and holidays excluded.
