## What it is
Whoami is a user-friendly privacy and anonymity CLI tool for Debian and Arch-based Linux distributions. It bundles 9+ modules such as IP changing via Tor, MAC randomization, DNS replacement, log killing, and anti-MITM protection.

## Use cases
- anonymize my linux traffic through tor
- randomize mac address on all network interfaces
- replace isp dns with privacy-focused dns servers
- delete system logs securely
- protect against man-in-the-middle attacks
- hide my ip address on debian or arch
- bypass censorship and tracking on linux

## When to choose
- you run a Debian or Arch-based Linux distribution and want one-click anonymity hardening
- you want a beginner-friendly CLI that automates Tor routing, MAC randomization, and DNS changes together
- you need to quickly reduce your digital footprint on a personal machine

## When to avoid
- you need anonymity on Windows or macOS, since only Debian/Arch Linux is supported
- you require guaranteed 100% anonymity, which no tool can provide
- you need a hardened enterprise-grade anonymity platform like Whonix or Tails rather than a system-tweaking script
