Some useful notes I took while watching this awesome and educational video: -Run Tails ONLY on a USB. -DON'T run Tor on Windows. -DON'T run Tails on a Virtual Machine -ALWAYS put the Security Level (Shield) on Safest (you need to do this every single time you boot Tails because it resets) -NEVER enable Javascript while browsing even if asked to do so. -If you want do download a file from the web ALWAYS disconnect from the internet before opening it. -Stretch the Tor browser window (don't fullscreen it)
@@unkn0wn011 From google search I found this: Windows is simply not the best choice of platform to use Tor in an attempt to improve one’s Internet privacy because of the security bugs and vulnerabilities present in the system may compromise your privacy, even when using Tor.
Just curious, how would you possibly run Tails on a USB without using any of the main OS types on your computer if it saves onto your hard drive? I apologize I'm VERY new to this information and I'm struggling to understand this
This video is an example that education should always be uncensored, unfiltered & accessible to everyone. The reality is that, today RUclips is more useful than a standard secondary or even tertiary education.
I love this info you're just dishing out for free. I had a general understanding of the dark web before this, and also a decent understanding of how to use tor and do it properly. I had no idea there was even more! Thank you so much, I think this video especially is extremely important to be an effective tester.
Really great content! I have always been afraid to venture out on the dark web. You highlight key safety information and it makes the venture to the dark side far less daunting for me now. Thank you!
This is extremely informative, I had undergone a cyber security training last year, and my teachers there, had no clue how to use dark web or how to keep ourselves safe, they were the worst teachers tbh. I have learnt a great amount of information from TCM in the past few months. Kudos to TCM

I hope this is of some kind of help to those who need it such as myself... Let's continue to push ourselves in today's world & I truly think of the web as well needed.
Because there may be inexperienced professionals who need privacy for personal safety reasons: Here are a few points NOT mentioned in this video. 1. Users should research just a little about the Development of TOR itself, it's funding and it's Jurisdictional obligations. 2. In most settings the ISP MUST keep records of User sessions. At any given moment, there will be a small number of users accessing any ISP (in encrypted mode) and so it will be trivial to identify users accessing the web Via TOR or indeed running ANY high end encryption. ISP would be forced to disclose. For those who do not understand this means the exact time and location path of the session can be monitored quite easily. ( Applies equally to use of TAILS) - NOTE that if an encrypted session was identified to have run across a Mobile network then it's trivial to extract the SIMM card details: it's number / phone type/ and even where and when it was bought. ALSO the observer can easily monitor for that SIMM card in future. 3 With reference also to point 1 - There is good reason to assume TOR nodes are compromised and user data could be accessed simply by following entry and exit nodes by synchronising data flow. By this method the session could be identified and probably encryption compromised. 4 there are only say 25000 TOR nodes active at any time. It's a village quite easy to police. 5. Always behave well and be legal at all times, be a good citizen, pay your taxes, - You know, be nice 🙂
Any Company that falls under NATO is required to give up information if a subpoena is placed, but on some occasions the fbi/cia get the information using back doors. Finding a Russian version of Tor will make it somewhat harder for US agencies, and also try to use a proxy, buy everything cash at a flee market.
I think Mr Snowden is correct. IF you are say, a journalist talking to sources or something like that where serious privacy is needed: ANYTHING online is highly risky and subject to exposure.@@rojjst
This is almost 100% security, I never thought i'd be interested in using the dark web but after watching this video i feel like it should be the default way of browsing the internet.

I got onto the deep web one time, and i stumbled onto a website that i definitely shouldn't have been on, and a few days later i came home to find that my files were rummaged through, but nothing was stolen. It might've been a coincidence but after that situation i never got back on
5:00 Whilst it is indeed, inadvisable to run *tails* in a VM, you *can* run who nix as a vm. In fact it's the only way you can run whonix. Like tails, it re-routes all it's traffic inside itself through the tor network, and has tor as its default browser.
My friend, you are amazing. I could follow you through any program, app, hardware/software/firmware, warehouse, farmhouse, henhouse, outhouse or doghouse (as Tommy Lee Jones so eloquently described in “The Fugitive”. Haha You are a fantastic communicator while being able to still go fast. That’s a rare talent! Well done! I need to hire you to teach me some photoshop for iPad Pro! I’m dying to learn that.
Like most things in life nothing is 100% certain. Tor does offer most anonymity than any other service/tool, but its weakest link is the user using it. I've never seen a case where someone was identified because of a hole in tor. There have been many cases where users' anonymity was broken when they clicked on a link they shouldn't have, opened a file they should not have or did some other stupid thing.
If it’s on a damn RUclips / Google video, which is a government entity, believe me, it’s not something they are concerned that you have. You cannot hide online no matter what they tell you.
They haven't. Even the guy who designed the silk road only got caught because they tracked his clearnet activity and hacked his computer using physical means.

Thank you for sharing. I will likely never visit the dark web but now I understand it a little more. I am almost 60 and didn't get my first computer until I was in my late 30s. I don't use a computer at work except for putting in my time. I seldom use a computer at home either. I use this Kindle tablet my granddaughter bought me for watching videos like this. I guess someone that grew up in the digital age would have a better understanding a dark web and why its needed. It really has nothing to do with illegal activities, Its more about what information the government has on you. Its kind of disturbing if you did grow up in the digital age. I am all for the dark web even if I don't fully understand it.
well, it really has something to do with the illegal activity, quite directly - it’s just for your full understanding. i mean - are there convenient amazon-type of marketplaces dedicated to any imaginable kinds of illegal substances? absolutely. can u find a hitman - less common, but u absolutely can; etc, etc, etc.. but it’s sotra synonymous with any concept of a free web - if you have a space of total freedom it’s bound to spawn some products of those who take the freedom to their advantage which may conflict with the laws. but is it also the most safest way for an average person to access the web and be absolutely positive that they won’t leave any digital traces that could lead back to your identity - yeah, also absolutely true. which of course may be a thing one may wish ‘cause of various reasons - a kid researching the info trying to figure out his sexual preferences, an independent journalist researching dangerous topic, maybe just an average person that’s sick of being ad-stalked by all the algorithmic data collection thing that’s basically present on most platforms by now - and many many other down to earth very human reasons - you name it. so it’s like not the absolute positive thing, nor it’s the absolute evil - it’s all kinds of shades of grey as the most things in this life are. i would bet that it’s mostly used for the privacy by an average user, and being able to access the web privately is a basic and crucial human right in my opinion. it’s good to know that folks from older generations wish to have a better understanding about these kinds of modern phenomenons, reading your comment. stay safe and good luck!
hello! thanks for the information! one question though, would you recommend using a VPN aswell as everything you mentioned in this video? if so, can you please explain how? thanks a ton
Thank you very much Cyber Mentor for this great content,I would like to asked you a question, would you recommend using a VPN for anonymity or tails is enough along side tor to browse the dark web
Old comment, but maybe someone will find this useful. A VPN is not a good idea unless you know EXACTLY what you're doing. It won't make you more private or secure, and it will likely decrease your privacy.
Tails does not support pluggable transports like Snowflake directly. Tails is designed to force all network connections through Tor, but doesn't currently have built-in support for altering the appearance of this traffic with pluggable transports.
@@Linnitup7755 It allows who ever is tracking you (ad companies, malicious actors) to slowly built a profile of you and makes it easier for them to start tracking you
@@brittanychick7140 “A threat actor or malicious actor is either a person or a group of people that take part in an action that is intended to cause harm to the cyber realm including: computers, devices, systems, or networks.”
Hi Tech people. Let me ask a silly question please. I get the point we shouldn't run TOR on Windows even with VMs. But what if I save VDI on a flash drive? Is that viable? Thanks in advance.
Even if you save the Virtual Disk Image (VDI) on an external flash drive, running Tails or Tor inside a virtual machine on Windows can still pose risks. When you run a virtual machine, the host operating system (Windows, in this case) still has the ability to monitor activities within the VM. This means even if the VDI is on an external drive, the host system could still leave traces or be vulnerable to malware that can compromise your anonymity and privacy. Furthermore, VMs typically save state and data, which can also leave traces. This goes against the design of Tails, which aims to leave no trace on the computer you're using unless you explicitly ask it to.The safest way to use Tails or Tor is to boot Tails directly from a USB stick or DVD on a computer, without involving a host operating system or a virtual machine. This way, Tails operates independently of any other operating system and doesn't leave traces on the machine.
Yes, you can download and install Tails on an SSD just like you would on a USB stick or any other type of external storage. However, Tails is designed to be a live system, meaning it doesn't store any data between sessions for privacy reasons. Using an SSD might not be the most cost-effective solution given Tails' design, but it can still work if it's what you have available. Remember to configure your computer's BIOS/UEFI settings to boot from the SSD.
VPN over Tor protects you from malicious exit relays when browsing the clearnet. Some exit relays will try to capture your credentials for clearnet sites. VPN will protect against that. VPN over tor doesn't improve security for .onion sites. Tor over VPN protects against your ISP knowing you are connecting to tor. The downside is your are trusting the VPN provider for your tor connection which may erase all privacy tor provides.
I'm literally interested in what everyone in the comments is using this information for. You all sound so greatful, and kind, but like...I know why I'm here. I'll be honest, I thought he would at least give us our first easy, surface level onion website for the fun dark web stuff. I mean, it seems too slow to use for regular stuff if whatever you guys are doing is going to happen often. Like for regular, daily/weekly use, I don't think I would go through all this trouble. For a fun surf of what the real dark web has to offer? I would totally do this. So, what on Earth are you guys doing with this?
this is the FBI AND WE ARE WATCHING EVERYTHING YOU DO, just a fair warning that we are on to your plans and we will not stop until we throw you in prison, nice try, we were born at night, just not last night. we are on to you and it's just a matter of time...
Hey, I couldn't quite catch how to save files in hard drive with encryption. I can't seem to understand why encrypting then decrypting would help, could anyone explain?
That would be a great video idea for TCM. How to configure and setup VeraCrypt volumes and the different options available. Also a video on Truecrypt! It's history, usage, and the mysterious end to it would make for some great content.

but is it also the most safest way for an average person to access the web and be absolutely positive that they won’t leave any digital traces that could lead back to your identity - yeah, also absolutely true. which of course may be a thing one may wish ‘cause of various reasons - a kid researching the info trying to figure out his sexual preferences, an independent journalist researching dangerous topic, maybe just an average person that’s sick of being ad-stalked by all the algorithmic data collection thing that’s basically present on most platforms by now - and many many other down to earth very human reasons - you name it.
so it’s like not the absolute positive thing, nor it’s the absolute evil - it’s all kinds of shades of grey as the most things in this life are.
i would bet that it’s mostly used for the privacy by an average user, and being able to access the web privately is a basic and crucial human right in my opinion.
it’s good to know that folks from older generations wish to have a better understanding about these kinds of modern phenomenons, reading your comment.
stay safe and good luck!
@@kowloonbroadcast do you know what you're talking about? absolutely not.
Can you share your approach to identifying reputable vendors on the dark web?
I will refer you to online store I got my stuff
On Instagram or telegram......

Great and thank you, did you use a escrow service for your transactions.@@DejaStacy
Informative.. thank you.. 👍🏻
Awesome
Ty for video. I’m going back to school for computers and this is helpful in itself.
Always verify the public key against the iso file of tails.
I am just watching this just for educational reason thx ❤
hello! thanks for the information! one question though, would you recommend using a VPN aswell as everything you mentioned in this video? if so, can you please explain how? thanks a ton
*FINALLY* *I* *Can* *go* *through* *my* *Phone* *Thank* *you* *so* *much* *Audenspark* *you’re* *the* *best*
Love it love it brother... Ill try it following these beautiful steps. Thanks bro Magic
Thank you very much Cyber Mentor for this great content,I would like to asked you a question, would you recommend using a VPN for anonymity or tails is enough along side tor to browse the dark web
Old comment, but maybe someone will find this useful. A VPN is not a good idea unless you know EXACTLY what you're doing. It won't make you more private or secure, and it will likely decrease your privacy.
Please make a video on browsing tor on smartphones
Haha nice😅

What about SnowFlake? Is it safe to run Snowflake in Tails - to avoid even the ISP from realizing you're using TOR?
Tails does not support pluggable transports like Snowflake directly. Tails is designed to force all network connections through Tor, but doesn't currently have built-in support for altering the appearance of this traffic with pluggable transports.
Could you elaborate on a specific attack where the size of your screen would be relevant? Thanks!
By using tor on full screen mode it makes you stand out and become easier to identify and track…The last thing you want is to stand out
@@confusedparticles …..why does it make you stand out.
@@Linnitup7755 It allows who ever is tracking you (ad companies, malicious actors) to slowly built a profile of you and makes it easier for them to start tracking you
what is a malicious actor?
@@brittanychick7140 “A threat actor or malicious actor is either a person or a group of people that take part in an action that is intended to cause harm to the cyber realm including: computers, devices, systems, or networks.”
Very educational!
To whom it may concern: i am not here for educational purposes, i am here strictly to engage in very illegal activities!
Thanks for the info, very interesting, I came here for educational and informative purposes.
Hi Tech people. Let me ask a silly question please. I get the point we shouldn't run TOR on Windows even with VMs. But what if I save VDI on a flash drive? Is that viable? Thanks in advance.
Even if you save the Virtual Disk Image (VDI) on an external flash drive, running Tails or Tor inside a virtual machine on Windows can still pose risks. When you run a virtual machine, the host operating system (Windows, in this case) still has the ability to monitor activities within the VM. This means even if the VDI is on an external drive, the host system could still leave traces or be vulnerable to malware that can compromise your anonymity and privacy. Furthermore, VMs typically save state and data, which can also leave traces. This goes against the design of Tails, which aims to leave no trace on the computer you're using unless you explicitly ask it to.The safest way to use Tails or Tor is to boot Tails directly from a USB stick or DVD on a computer, without involving a host operating system or a virtual machine. This way, Tails operates independently of any other operating system and doesn't leave traces on the machine.
Thank you so much! ❤
Can i download Tails on a SSD????
Yes, you can download and install Tails on an SSD just like you would on a USB stick or any other type of external storage. However, Tails is designed to be a live system, meaning it doesn't store any data between sessions for privacy reasons. Using an SSD might not be the most cost-effective solution given Tails' design, but it can still work if it's what you have available. Remember to configure your computer's BIOS/UEFI settings to boot from the SSD.
Fascinating video. Thanks
Got a quick question. What about Tor over VPN vs VPN over Tor. Is there a privacy benefit to this? If so which method is better?
VPN over Tor protects you from malicious exit relays when browsing the clearnet. Some exit relays will try to capture your credentials for clearnet sites. VPN will protect against that. VPN over tor doesn't improve security for .onion sites.
Tor over VPN protects against your ISP knowing you are connecting to tor. The downside is your are trusting the VPN provider for your tor connection which may erase all privacy tor provides.
Great Educational video👍
One thing I would like to add is to cover your webcam with duct tape while surfing darkweb😅
Great content! Thanks good sir
I'm literally interested in what everyone in the comments is using this information for. You all sound so greatful, and kind, but like...I know why I'm here. I'll be honest, I thought he would at least give us our first easy, surface level onion website for the fun dark web stuff. I mean, it seems too slow to use for regular stuff if whatever you guys are doing is going to happen often. Like for regular, daily/weekly use, I don't think I would go through all this trouble. For a fun surf of what the real dark web has to offer? I would totally do this. So, what on Earth are you guys doing with this?
What stands-out to me, is that this isn't simple.
To whom it may concern: I am not here because I want to shop or be part of the dark web, I am here for educational purposes. Thank you aswel
How to get on the darkweb?

What is it
this is the FBI AND WE ARE WATCHING EVERYTHING YOU DO, just a fair warning that we are on to your plans and we will not stop until we throw you in prison, nice try, we were born at night, just not last night. we are on to you and it's just a matter of time...
I'm into cloud security ..trying to learn
Hey, I couldn't quite catch how to save files in hard drive with encryption. I can't seem to understand why encrypting then decrypting would help, could anyone explain?
That would be a great video idea for TCM. How to configure and setup VeraCrypt volumes and the different options available. Also a video on Truecrypt! It's history, usage, and the mysterious end to it would make for some great content.
