About Advertisements on the Whonix ™ Website

Whonix ™ logo

Readers may have noticed that each documentation chapter has several advertisements in the footer. To remove all doubt, advertisements do not:

  • result in monetary compensation for the Whonix ™ project;
  • influence the direction of Whonix ™ development; or
  • lead to changes in Whonix ™ software or website choices (apart from the advertisement itself).

The present list of advertisements includes:

  • Evolution Host: provides system administration advice for the whonix.org website.

The past list of advertisements includes:

  • Fosshost: fosshost.org was a non-profit organization that provided hosting services to the open source community. Fosshost provided a stage server for Kicksecure ™.
  • Jobble: link exchange. It shows advertisements for Whonix ™ for related searches.
  • Search engines (YaCy | Qwant | ecosia | MetaGer | peekier): This is a voluntary listing by Whonix ™ and no discussions have occurred with any of these services. Also see this forum postarchive.org.

Any future changes will be documented on this page.
