Whonix 17.3.9.9: Whonix (formerly known as TorBOX or AOS) is a universal operating system based on Virtual Box, Debian GNU / Linux and Tor.
The most interesting feature of course is that with this operating system you are completely anonymous when you go out on the internet.
Let's see how. You will need to download VirtualBox for “Windows Hosts” and the OVA file for Whonix. Having the necessary files you can proceed with the installation of VirtualBox. This way you will have an anonymous operating system within the operating system you use every day.
Below are also the images of the distro for those interested in trying it out on their system.
Whonix design does not allow leaks of IP and DNS you use. Not even with malware with root privileges can someone learn the actual user's location.
This is because Whonix consists of two (virtual) machines. A machine only runs Tor and acts as a gateway, which the system calls Whonnix-Gateway.
The other machine, referred to as the Whonix-Workstation, is a completely isolated network that only allows connections through Tor.

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
Do you know if we can install and use qBittorrent on Whonix to download torrents or is this distribution unable to work with torrents and is it only for “surfing”?
If Whonix doesn't support torrents, can you recommend a similar anonymity distribution that does?
