    From Newsgroup: alt.privacy

    if it allows secure and anonymous communications.

    Step 1: At home use your offline device with an editor and minicrypt,
    to create your message which will be send with Onion Courier.

    The message should look like this:

    X-OC-To: yeffqiea4xtcu6woyab6z6bz4oehisfuzgtmk4e277bydq25p7nha7ad.onion:8082 onioncouriermiddleman
    X-OC-To: bx6iyuayetnsf4wfn24uuvedghdfb5o44v2lmrrfkbne6fdcolxhfyid.onion:8082 onioncouriermailer
    From: Onion Courier <noreply@oc2mx.net>
    To: mail2news@dizum.com
    Subject: Anonymous Test Message
    MIME-Version: 1.0
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
    Newsgroups: alt.test.test

    Your message.

    Step 2. Encrypt the message with minicrypt while using this guard public key:

    -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY-----
    xLE5D8ic+7MyzcApInuLoFhy9eF5umieH1Hufmolzpc=
    -----END PUBLIC KEY-----

    minicrypt.exe guard.pem < message.txt > out.txt

    https://github.com/706f6c6c7578/minicrypt/releases/tag/v0.1.0

    Step 3. Create a data.txt file for your Onion Courier client which
    looks like this:

    #guard:
    7zo6bqgbbiszemsdevwwlgbw4y3b2wxje3idj3jnsfojfux4xczjnkad.onion:8082 onioncourierguard

    Step 4. Copy data.txt and out.txt to a USB stick. Put on that USB stick also
    the Onion Courier client.exe and tor.exe with ist files.

    https://github.com/706f6c6c7578/oc/releases/tag/v0.1.0
    https://www.torproject.org/download/tor/

    Step 5. At your Internet cafe or public library etc. check if the PC
    there allows you to use cmd.exe. If this works plug in your
    USB stick and copy (or cd to the USB stick directory) the
    files to the Desktop.

    Step 6. Now start tor.exe and then open a second cmd.exe window to
    run the Onion Courier Client:

    oc_client.exe -d data.txt -f out.txt

    If everthing is going well you should see this output in cmd.exe:

    Using Tor network
    Send file...

    File sent successfully. Total time: 7 seconds

    Onion Courier Response: File received and sent.
    No data is stored or logged by Onion Courier.

    Onion Courier Response: File received and sent.
    No data is stored or logged by Onion Courier.

    Onion Courier Response: File received and sent.
    No data is stored or logged by Onion Courier.

    As you can see privacy / anonymity cost also a bit of money,
    which, depending on your situation, is very well spend.
