Hello!
Im new to VB and Whonix system so i need to check if im doing it right.
Turn computer on> Start my VPN > Start Whonix Gateway> Start Whonix Workstation> Surf “anonymously” on the workstation.
When im finished
Shutdown whonix> Continue surfing like normal but VPN still on.
Is it right or should i change something?
Also, is countermail safe and how do i get it to work on Whonix?
Do i need to disable anything els before i start the VB?
What happens if i accidentaly opens IE besides the VirtualBox?
