We now have enough content for a shiny new documentation page. Do you think it would be good to move the content to the separate page? Printing and Scanning - Whonix

Yes!

@Patrick

Why re-create that VM every time? If it gets infected by malware, it would probably get infected every time by the same malware?

Mostly inexperience. Trying to error on the side of caution. My thinking was.

• user makes mistake(s) and does not realize it (e.g. uses Tor Browser in printer VM for sensitive activity). Safer to remove VM after every session.

@Patrick

That chapter Software Recommendations is very good to have. Could you please copy it to make a generalized chapter “software installation TemplateBasedVM AppVM”.

@Patrick

Does that make sense?

Great idea! Makes perfect sense. If I’m unsure about something when creating content I will seek your guidance.

Firefox can connect to onions in Whonix.

Try:

Set

network.dns.blockDotOnion

To

false

This could use a documentation enhancement (Whonix 14 requires the user

to apt-get install firefox-esr to do that).
