>>106702799OK soVPN over TORor TOR over VPN?
>>106702842Neither.Only if ISP blocks TOR, then TOR over VPN.
>>106702874But then why is it recommended to use a VPN with TOR?
>>106702874you can use tor bridges to circumvent isp blocking the tor network
>>106702799they REALLY hate this combination kek
>>106702893then nobody sees your clearnet ip going into tor
>>106702799if your isp blocks you from using tor you need to jihad their office
>>106702959but what if the vpn is compromised?
I don't know much about Tor.But if the three-letter agencies control both Tor relays and relevant VPN servers, would there be any difference between using one or both?
>>106702985so what? all they see is you're going into tor
I still don't actually believe in VPNs working. Like, I'm pretty sure if I googled something outrageous on purpose, like 'how to bomb a school,' I'd get on the FBI's watchlist despite using a VPN.
>>106703008True. TOR over VPN really is the way to go.
>>106703099
>>106702895True, I used to do that on my high school's wifi so I could lurk 4chan in class
>>106702893it's notthe only people who say that are schizo's doing the kind of shit that makes you a target like pizza production and are worried about some 0-day deanonymization vulnerabilityvpns make you stand out more, and there are better ways to achieve the same outcome, like connecting to tor on a public network
>>106702799>using tor with a vpnwhat a fucking retard.
>>106702991they can control as many relays, exit nodes etc. as they want, they still can't see the traffic and still can't trace it to anybody. they're merely providing free bandwidth.
>>106703175>>using tor with a vpn>"WHAT A FUCKING RETARD"

You retards are still on tor? We're on i2p now.
>>106702874If your ISP blocks tor you use something called a bridge, silly anon!

>>106703204>Instead of this CP dumping network crawling with feds you should use the other CP dumping network crawling with feds
>>106703189>>106703231Lmao, it actually pisses the feds off.
>>106703221Well I do, i torrent using i2p, my traffic is encrypted for free, no need to pay for a vpn, problem is that I can't install torrents on the clearweb >>106703232>i2p is from the CIANo it isn't, everyone acts as a node on i2p and that is good, making the network faster, secure and not depend on centralized slow honeypot nodes like tor, your traffic will be mixed with other nodes making it really hard for feds to do a deep packet inspection on you, the encryption of i2p itself is stronger than tor, join i2p anon and contribute to the network as well, be a node!
>>106703293fuck no, glowie
>>106703312>t. (You)>YOU'RE DURR GLOWIE!!If that's what you think, so be it. Continue on your slow honeypot slop.
>>106703293Wasn't saying it was, it likely does have feds on it hunting for criminals and even if they supposedly don't, what does I2P even have that isn't CP dumping communities? i imagine it's far more barren than TOR.
>>106703160>connecting to tor on a public networklet me pull that one out of my ass
>>106703396>what does I2P even have that isn't CP dumping communities? An official i2p forum, a site dedicated to downloading i2p torrents (safe from CP), a site that acts as a registrar, displaying eepsites for you to find that are free from CP.
>>106702799>I don't get how bridges work
>>106703678Hmmm, might give it a try then.
Don't you have to somewhat know what you're doing to run a TOR node without potentially getting in trouble?Is I2P the same? The "everyone is a node" thing sounds scary.
>>106704905No, you're talking about exit nodes, normally other Tor nodes are not being targeted. I don't know of any case in which I2P got targeted by law enforcement and it'd be way harder to prove since I2P doesn't connect to the clear net so the feds would need to be part of the I2P network and just as much aid criminals to claim you're doing something wrong.
>>106703385
>>106703231>Anon learns what a meme is
>>106703204you retards are still i2p? we're all on freenet
>>106705111>feds would need to ... just as much aid criminals to claim you're doing something wronghas that ever stopped them?
>>106704905You're confusing exit nodes, on i2p you can't connect to the clear web, everyone on i2p is a middle node, even if you're routing illegal traffic to an asshole it's going to be encrypted by other nodes & you, nobody will ever know if that traffic was linked to you as well.
>>106707465you can, it's just not the primary function of i2p
>>106707639Just use a different browser if you want to connect to the clearweb while using i2p kek
>>106702799
>>106707889Wut?
>>106703011legit ones like mullvad have been raided and nothing happened as a result, because they don't log user ips to disk, and it gets purged from RAM after like 3 minutes. Their entire business is protecting users, they're not going to get caught with their pants down and lose everyone.

>>106703011I use a VPN to dodge porn ID verification, torrent without DMCA notices, protect myself on public wi-fi, and to stop Meta and Google from tracking me across the Internet. Trying to guarantee immunity from investigation and prosecution of federal crimes is a much different question, and one that probably won't be answered by a $5/month subscription. VPN user != criminal, even though what the conversation is always inevitably dragged back to from both sides. This is why the nanny state wants to log everyone's text messages, because conversations around privacy immediately devolve into bomb threats and illegal porn.
>>106708225thisits for torrenting and making your ip non-doxxable without serious effort
Vpn --> tor = ISP can't see tor traffic therefore a subpoena asking the ISP if you were on tor between 3:23 am to 3:51 wouldnt be able to be answered. They'd just see generic VPN packets
Wouldn't VPN -> Tor -> VPN be the most secure method of browsing if you were doing something naughty and your threat model are like state sponsored actors / oppressive government regime / spies? You need to hide that you're using TOR from your local network, then you bounce your shit around tor, finally your exit node connects to another VPN so when you connect to your final destination you show up as a random vpn user and not a tor user. I've never done this because I'm not a criminal but now i'm curious.
>>106708691residential proxy is probably even better because they're botnetted, but the poor guy on the other end will get possibly prosecuted
>>106702799I honestly never understood this anti-VPN argument, its just a server you connect to holy shit, it depends on how the fuck you use itISP > VPN > Tor > VPN > Tor > VPN > Tor > VPN > I2P > Tor > VPN > I2P > VPS from fucking China > Tor again because why the fuck not > VPN > yet another VPS but you didn't pay for but h4xed into > socks5 proxy from a free site > VPN > Tor>nooo actually that is bad because you are not supposed to do that please stick to the browser only!
Yeah but you've gotta do it behind 4 or 5 proxies.
>>106703678I've found myself increasingly interested in i2p simply because it seems like a fun playground for making sites without having to pay for a domain or worry about autistic retards hunting me down and trying to fuck with my life over internet shit.< Also captcha funny.
>>106703189>child raping police officeris that an officer from the child-raping police, a officer from the raping police who is still a child, or a child who is raping a police officer?
>>106709073'playground' is indeed a nice metaphor for i2p
Guys this is a /g/ humour thread, OP even said so himself Be good lads and start posting funnies like these fine gentlemen: >>106707889>>106708075
>>106709224What's the meaning of those posts anon?
>>106709073Give i2p a try anon, way better and faster than TOR
>>106702799Regardless of the security implications, Tor is slow enough without adding more nodes. Also if you are worried so much about being de-anonymized, you should probably think more about the environment you connect to Tor on, and maybe not use a browser with the largest attack surface known to mankind. Also none of you have to worry about using bridges or hiding Tor usage from your ISP, LMAO none of you need bridges and it's already fucking obvious by now that you're a Tor user.
