[liberationtech] current best advice for secure blogging

[Michael Rogers]

True, that would be possible, but I'm not sure the guide should advise
someone to create two accounts when they only need one.

Thanks for the reminder about AOL, which I forgot to look into. It
doesn't appear to be possible to sign up for an AOL email account
through the Tor Browser Bundle.

Cheers,
Michael
