https://github.com/Whonix/kicksecure-network-conf/blob/master/etc/dnscrypt-proxy/kicksecure.toml#L33-L34

• use DNSCrypt by default [archive]

@lapsa

Can ISP or someone fingerprint me and see that I use Kicksecure ?

Probably yes.

@lapsa

Or it’s only apt-get upgrade server, but I can torify them and for ISP Kicksecure will look like I use Debian with torified sources.list.

It’s really not the focus of that distribution. I don’t even want to spend energy thinking about that.

@lapsa

Are there any packages sent to whonix server ?

No, but fetches from Whonix repository.

Kicksecure ™: A Security-hardened, Non-anonymous Linux Distribution

@lapsa

If I add non-free contrib and install gpu drivers, it will be okay for gaming ?

Untested but possibly yes. It is Kicksecure - A Security Hardened Linux Distribution

In simple terms, Kicksecure ™ is a collection of configuration files and scripts. Based on Debian, anything possible in “vanilla” Debian GNU/Linux can be replicated in Kicksecure ™. Likewise, most problems and questions can be solved in the same way. For example, “How do I install OpenVPN in Kicksecure ™?” would be answered with "The same way as in Debian; apt-get install openvpn ".
