Point me to the dark web

I use Nord VPN. Using a VPN with Tor is technically more secure, but likely isn't necessary as traffic through Tor should already be anonymous. You might want to check, but I would imagine most Chrome VPN add-ons would only route traffic coming from Chrome through the VPN, which means it won't have any effect on traffic coming from your Tor browser. As I said, this shouldn't matter.

I’m finding urls for onion marketplaces, but every link says invite only.
How do you get invited?

VPNs are terrible unless you know they wont sell you out and ECCIE blocks TOR. Originally Posted by Fornikateher

So confused.

Press ⊞ Win+r. Type in %appdata%\.minecraft. Open bin and you will see minecraft.jar. Open the .jar file using an archive software (recommended WinRAR). To do this, right-click on minecraft.jar and hover to the Open With menu item. Copy the class files into this folder. Exit the folder once you have copied the class files. Certain mods will require you to copy files into other directories. Follow the instructions on your download for clarification on where to copy. Back up your worlds at .minecraft/saves.

Using TOR is about all you need to access the dark web without being traced. A VPN is overkill but then it helps if you're new to TOR and you make mistakes.

TOR breaks up your last known IP much like you see hackers in the movies bounce from node to node. That's the most layman description I can give. Even if leo's are watching your IP in real time the most they can know is that you were on TOR at xx:xx am/pm and that's it. However, it gives you access to servers that require a TOR client to be seen or even searched.

TOR blocks Flash and Javascript which is what leo's have used in the past to get past TOR encryption. Since Javascript is common on the normal web, TOR users will sometimes try and turn it back on when browsing. That's a common mistake along with turning off other security features. If you leave TOR in its default configuration you'll be fine. Avoid downloading .exe's or .pdf's. Just like the normal precautions you take to avoid viruses, do the same on TOR. Leo's famously crafted their own virus and had people voluntarily download it which gave away their location. Its amazing that people thought "free_cocaine_and_tits_coupon. exe" or something similar was legit, downloaded it, installed it, and wondered why police where at their door.

VPN's cover those extra mistakes or can be used as a stand alone but may be risky doing so. You log into a VPN which acts like a remote computer. But this box handles multiple accounts and assigns multiple dynamic IP's to everyone using it so while leo's can see you're using a VPN, they can't prove that you went to a certain website. This is excellent for normal web browsing and can get around work firewalls. VPN's are usually pretty cheap at around $5-$15 a month. The majority that require payment keep no records of your IP so there's no trace. In all honesty there is little reason not to be using a VPN on a regular basis. You're out $60 a year but that's peanuts to what many spend.

So why the Dark Web?

Law Enforcement Officers (leo's) have a hard enough time proving that a website exists and clients are untraceable if they don't do something stupid. This allows any sort of activity to happen on the dark web that may or may not be legal to do. There are plenty of pages that are on the extreme weird, gory, pedo, or drug related side of things. But like the regular web if I don't go searching for it then I'll never find it. Unlike google, the dark web doesn't make it easy to find stuff unless you put in an effort to find it. Truth be told I'm surprised that ECCIE hasn't set up a page their as a backup. They would have to redo the page so that it doesn't use javascript that that's really not that hard. Things would be much simpler looking though.

LOL@darkweb

You guys would be hacked in seconds.


Its like calling the script kiddies, hackers.
Any darkweb that people point you to is just a webpage unless you are reading it in a telnet prompt. Originally Posted by Gotyour6

you people really shouldn't go there if you dont know what you are doing. you are going to need several layers of condoms to even think about going there. you should also never go there on a windows OS...

Dark web is not for the faint of heart lol. One of the biggest problems is hackers can follow you home ! The best advice is don't go there if you don't know what you are doing.

That being said if people want to play look up TALES software. It is an operating system that launches from a USB drive. Nothing is kept on your pc and it is built for privacy. TALES and a VPN is a good combination.

^ that isn't accurate, the city in Montana is spelled "Bozeman"

I can vouch for the rest though. Originally Posted by N6_in_the_village
