Hiding your porn stash - share your stories

Ace Bandage

The one and only.
It's on an external hard drive inside of a McAfee secure, encrypted virtual safe along with all of my other digital pictures. The porn is located in a hidden folder separate from the rest. It won't be found. Ever. Only I have access to it.
 
I have quite a bit of porn to be honest, but I recently got an old(er) laptop from a friend who didn't want it anymore after purchasing a brand new laptop, so now that I have two laptops, one is completely for porn and the other is for schoolwork and such. Works out quite nicely. I have an external HD that is password protected as well, and all of it gets backed up onto there too.
 
I download everything on my computer no one elese uses my computer. I have burned so many cds & still plan to burn many more I have about 825 cds & dvds right now. Planing to get a 1000 cd case & get 2 locks with keys to lock up the case, when anyone asks with is in there I will tell them mostly music cds
 
hiding files - share your stories

I have burned so many cds & still plan to burn many more I have about 825 cds & dvds right now.
Wow. I used to have a couple of CD-Rs & DVD-Rs with JPEG photos and videos.
Last year I just discarded them. I keep a text file with links to my favorite URLs so I don't have any bookmarks in the computer.
Yes I know..."What would you do if the Internet were down for days?" or "What would you do if the images & videos were no longer accessible at those URLs?"
There is so much porn available there is an endless supply.

Now I must also recommend Truecrypt.
On any media (harddrive, CD-R, DVD-R, BD-R, USB Flash drive, SDHC card) it will work for storage.

Your most cost effective method is an external harddrive, then DVD-Rs, then CD-Rs.
After that a USB flash drive at 8GB is a good cost price point currently.

When you save a Truecrypt folder you don't have to make it an invisible partition but instead add a few bogus README.txt files and a couple small corporate website JPEGs in the same folder. rename your huge 2-4GB Truecrypt container something like *.AVI or *.BIN or *.ZIP or an installer file name.
Or you can put a couple much smaller .AVI files from some corporate training type thing in the folder.
Even if someone tries to open it they think it is corrupted.
You know better. just change it back to the Truecrypt file name extension so Truecrypt will recognize it.

Now where to hide these media? For all but the external hard drive...I came across this:
anonymous offsite storage of 8GB data for 30 days

Other than that if you feel you really can't hide your media at home try this cool book:
pretty much every idea in it. A great read. Chapter 7 "Hiding Items With Innocent Bystanders" is entertaining and shows clever options.
It will let you get creative in your thinking about public places as well as buildings you visit frequently or infrequently

SouthWest King you may want to just get an external harddrive as that is a very large collection and you could possibly enjoy it more if you had easier access to it. At least consolidate all your CD-Rs to DVD-Rs. Buy a 100 DVD spindle cheap.


I may start to use a USB flash 1GB drive for JPEG photos, my text files of video URLs, and maybe a Firefox bookmarks file again with Truecrypt.
 
SouthWest King aside pretty much anyone who only has a collection of JPEG, AVI, and MPEG4 files that fits on 1 or 2 DVD-Rs a little mislabeling goes a long way.

Who really cares about a DVD-R labeled with "Uncle William's June 6, 2002 Cricket match in West Sussex"
or some small sized college Hockey game from November 17, 2001?

or better yet a copy of some shareware or freeware software for an outdated operating system like 'Resume Builder version 4 for Windows98'
And then even if someone actually put it in a DVD-ROM drive there would your *.AVI file be that is a Truecrypt container that is just renamed to a .AVI extension...

your media for storing data

Let me correct myself. The most cost effective method would probably be DVD-Rs for a 'time to media' cost ratio.
You can get DVD-R 100 pack spindles pretty cheap on a sale now. The same goes for CD-Rs but you spend more time burning 7 CD-Rs than 1 DVD-R (4.7GB single layer) for the same amount of data.

When dealing with such a volume of files I'd rather just have an external harddrive as you can access so many faster for searches or thumbnails or just having a library very accessible. With the cost of 1TB external drives now you can just hide your Truecrypt container within all sorts of other files on the drive.

back in the day, I was like 14,
I had a shoebox full of magazines hidden under my bed...

One day I came home and felt the urge - I dug out the box only to find my stack was not in the order I had left it...
So I wrote a little note that said "Check out Cori Nadine on page 50 of book of lingerie, she so hot" or something like this.
It was only a few years ago that my pops admitted to receiving that note. He agreed.
 
I do love google chrome incognito :)

i heard of a pertty elaborate system the other day. one of my buddies who lives with his mrs. seeing as she is not a big porn fan, he installed Vmware on his machine, which allows him to access another operating system from his main desktop. on his second OS, he uses it to surf and download and store his stash. I asked him if it was hassle free, which he said yes. He said, i cant confirm this, that on your main OS, there is no way to track down what is on the secondary OS i.e by searching windows files. the only way someone can crack you is if they know the password to get into the Second OS. I think that is something i am going to do now :). has anyone heard of this....its like the batcave equivalent of porn !

I was going to actually post about this. It's exactly what I do. I don't save anything I just browse the net and with this you can reset the secondary OS back to a certain save point as if nothing ever happened.
 
anyone know how to stop google suggesting your favourites/ bookmarks on the URL when typing ? can be embarrassing
