How can I access the dark web using Tor?
>>108472726Tor is compromised & not for accessing the darkweb, use i2p instead.
>>108472812more like i2cp amirite
>>108472726Don't be an i2pedo. Go for a walk. Get some help.
>>108472726If you have to ask, you're too stupid to do it.
>>108472726No, don't. Are you retarded?>>108472812This. I2P will be the new endgame for now. Tor is just useless other than hosting your hidden service.
>install tor>find the hidden wiki>buy drugsliterally that simple, OP
If multiple shills are trying to convince you that some service is compromised without providing any proof, that's a good sign that glowies are seething because they can't control the service.>>108472726Just download the Tor Browser, turn off Javascript (security level Safest, you can also go a step further and disable it in about:config) and hit connect, then enter an onion URL. In practice URLs are hard to find and search engines are worthless. Tor is mainly useful for browsing the normal web in a private manner.
>>108473244>javascriptYou can't disable it anymore. It's hardcoded. They did it to "have better compatibility with sites on the clear web".
>>108473269I would think running Tor browser virtualized would provide better security than turning off javascript if security was such a concern.
>>108473279That's absolutely not how any of this works.
>>108473284Yeah, it is. That's the whole concept of QubesOS.
>>108473295Virtualization isolates one part of your system from another. It has nothing to do with networking other than optionally air gaping on VM.You're still connecting to the same network and if that networks is in your home/work and gets compromised, you get compromised just the same, even if whoever did it doesn't know what's on the rest of your computer.
>>108473269What the fuck are you talking about, anon? I use it daily for anything potentially politically sensitive and Javascript remains disabled. The only thing they changed, a while ago now, is that you need to restart Tor Browser whenever you switch to/from Safest.
>>108473244Tor is not compromised, but if you use it for normal browsing, it's slow as hell and the existence of Cuckflare makes it worse. However it's still useful for hosting hidden service, perfect for hiding your personal server.
>>108473279The concern with JS is less about browser compromise and more about system fingerprinting. There are cases where you facebook.com or something and it can run tests with JS and determine that you are the same person who visited earlier with your home IP address. Running in a VM fixes some of those cases but not all of them.
>>108472894Hilarious psyop to dissuade people from using superior tech that isn't compromised like Tor.
>>108473428Go to one of those sites that test for javascript and see for yourself.
>>108473186OP, I just downloaded Tor and explored that underworld and found a CP sire, oh my God.
>>108473810They say it's disabled. Why do you insist on spreading FUD?
>>108472726Don't waste your time, all interesting onions closed, there is nothing left on Tor except the police running pedo/drugs honeypots.>>108473244>>108473568>Tor is safe, bro, the 27.648.216 people who were arrested for doing illegal business on Tor all were stupid losers who used the same pseudo on the clearnet, and who connected to their personal email on Tor, and used an obsolete version, and had activated javascript, and...There are dozens and dozens of stories of the police in various countries succeeding in identifying people on Tor.Admit it, Tor is compromised.And if they can identify pedos and drugs dealers, they can identify you for criticizing Israel.You won't even believe it but I swear this happened to me two weeks ago: Searching for an equalizer on google. Close my browser. Open TorBrowser to delusionally browse some dead imageboards. You won't fucking believe it: an ad for the very equalizer model I was searching for...... WTF!!?? Who buys electronics on Tor anyway? But most of all, I knew Tor was compromised but not this much.
>>108472726look at all the retards above me who got baited by your thread. good job OP.
>>108473186Aren't most criminals using regular social media sites where it's much higher traffic? Yet dark web gets most of the bad rep as if it's some urban legend. Maybe it's as bad as they say. Not planning on going there.
>>108475006>Yet dark web gets most of the bad rep as if it's some urban legend.Type any word in any search engine on Tor, half the results are always CP for some reason...
why is there no fix for the whole>javascript sucks and leaks your real identity and shitbullshit?
>>108474814It's true though, for over fifteen years there have been many reports of FBI, german police, europol, etc, breaking Tor's anonymity and catching not just one specific criminal but sometimes hundreds of users of some illegal onion at once.Also, in today's world, where you can be arrested for hiding your face from a street camera, if Tor can really make you totally anonymous how come you can just download it and use it? How can it be so easy? They could very easily either ban it or add spyware inside, why don't they do it? Devs live in USA, the gov could pay them a visit and make an offer they can't refuse, they killed people for less than that. The "our spies use it" is an incredibly stupid excuse, for foreign spies use it too.
>>108475006Remember when the police decided to chase pirates on peer-to-peer networks just after everybody had left peer-to-peer networks for megaupload? That's the same kind of situation, the people who take decisions live in a bubble and don't know anything about the real world.
>>108473102Your can host hidden services using i2p, that's the whole point.It just is better than tor in every way that matters.
>>108473186>hidden wikilmao, you don't have a clue about what you are talking about, stop larping.entry sites are daunt dot link, dark dot fail and tor dot taxigenerally you will want to visit dread.
>>108475417>i2pis that the torrent shit?
i recently heard about reticulum network, does anyone know if thats relevant here and is it a good idea to use? I really just heard of it as in watched the guy's talk on it, and it sounds like what i2p wants to be but just a little bit better? Heres the talk for anyone who doesnt know it:https://youtube.com/watch?v=pnyuSWy66cand for anyone who does know it, is this what we're REALLY looking for, or should i keep running my i2p node?
>>108475533messed up the link, here it is, and in case this ones wrong the video is titledReticulum - Unstoppable Networks for The Peoplehttps://youtube.com/watch?v=pnyuSWy66cI
>>108475503no, it's an alternative to tor that's actually better.yes you can torrent over it because it's also much faster due to not being centralized.
>>108472812glowies invented TOR though
>>108475552>>108475533Id like to clarify that Reticulum is really meant to be a layer 3 and 4 mainly protocol, so its really meant to get rid of Tcp/Ip, but since tor and i2p are meant to be remedies for the problems of Tcp/Ip, supposedly reticulum just throws the functionality of them into layer 3-4 as a single networking-routing protocol instead. See this sounds perfect, and im seeing it like i first saw monero, so i really hope its as good as it says on the tin.
>>108475320There is a fix: block all javascript.
>>108475618>>108475552>>108475533I would love some insights on this so ill leave a few more links for people to check out in case youre interested.https://reticulum.network/https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum/blob/master/Zen%20of%20Reticulum.mdin their credits they mention I2Plib?https://reticulum.network/credits.html
And sorry for the spa mmy behaviour but i forgot to add this link as wellhttps://linuxinabit.codeberg.page/blog/reticulum/
upon some further research the 1 person i could find related to reticulum was Mark Qvist Petersen, found here:https://www.reddit.com/user/unsignedmark/https://github.com/markqvisthttps://unsigned.io/my main concern with reticulum as it was with monero, tor, i2p, and all other possible honeypot/backdoored/fed infested projects is that it may be one, so heres some data on it. Take what you will of it.
He also takes donations in many forms (xmr, btc ,eth, liberpay and kofi) and has made not that much off of it, but some.
he may also be retarded but i have no proper way of telling. I implore others to please look into the Reticulum project as well as its maintainer Mark Qvist. either way i will stop posting now.
>>108472726Anything crawlers can reach is not the dark web. If a site's address is on the clearweb, then so is the site. It being an onionsite does not change this.The real dark web in 2026 mostly consists of private Discord servers and Xitter DMs. This is retarded, but it is true. And yes, some people use these for crime.
>>108476024i dont think that lines up with the dark web idea, wikipedia does not use that view and your point about private discord servers and xitter dms would have been placed in the dark web frame years ago and would still be off.
>>108476126>The dark web is the World Wide Web content that exists on darknets (overlay networks) that use the Internet, but require specific software, configurations, or authorization to access.Wikipedia absolutely agrees with me on Discord and Xitter.
>>108476200I am sorry, I didn't properly read your prior message, you are correct, this will not happen again.
>>108472812>>108473102>>108475574i2p is dead. There is absolutely nothing of interest on it.
>>108472726>mfw all the TOR shills in hereOP, just type in TOR compromised into Google and you'll see it yourself. Just use I2P. The former is made directly by glow in the darks so it's no surprise it's compromised by design. Inb4,>It's exit nodes>It's a zero day in Firefox and not TOR even though TOR put that version of Firefox in by default>Nevermind that Javascript it built into it exposing you to more attack vectorsJust avoid all of it all together and go with the program that doesn't have entire google search result pages about man in the middle attacks and doesn't have a long rich history of people being arrested for using it. All that shit that TOR has baked in is by design. Remember how almost 20 years ago boards on this site were spammed about the "mysterious and totally cool anonymous hangouts" of the deep web and how these threads glorified them? Remember how all this shit inorganically showed up at the same time? TOR has always been a containment zone for law enforcement arresting the dumbest criminals. Just use I2P.
>>108476459Wait so is firefox backdoored? What about librewolf and mullvadbrowser?
>>108476496Around a decade ago they had a version of Firefox packaged on TOR that had a zero day. They don't double check anything they throw in there.
>>108475574>much fasterlol.
>>108475533They can work together
>>108476024>private Discord servers and Xitter DMsMeta and discord can read all of that, so it's not really a dark web, but I agree that that's where 90% of the harm is. Most crime is actually committed on the clearnet, the darknet is just the scary boogeyman nobody uses. Sure you can buy drugs there but you can also buy drugs from your friendly local drug dealer, who's also on xitter and most normalfag social media.
>>108478079This. Your president was in bed with a peed but muh dark web is the problem.
>>108478125And they need to know exactly where your kids hang out on the internet for the sake of groo- I mean, protecting them.
>>108472726What is the point of going to the dark web? Is there anything interesting there or is it just for enthusiasts and people who want to share cp?
I use Tor to host my own private and secure SMP/XFTP servers to use on SimpleX chat. I repurposed old laptops to run the servers and created 30 addresses to communicate privately on SimpleX chat, eliminating the use of SimpleX and Flux servers. I also repurposed an old cellphone running SimpleX client, so it acts as a home phone/Landline. I plan on setting up repeater servers with the same 30 addresses at my parents' house in California, my sister's house in Florida and my brother's in Chile. Building my own "cellphone service" over TOR, so to speak. Admittedly, if the internet goes down the addresses at fucked. But, there is 0 reason for me to use cellphone service and rely on CIA/Mossad spy infrastructure that's constantly monitored for my communication. Private, secure and encrypted and NO ONE (other than those who need to know) (my family members) knows our addresses (think of them as phone numbers from back in the day).The old Samsung J7 stays at home and receives texts and calls IF and when I cannot be reached on my personal cellphone client. Also, pics and files are sent to the client, over TOR, to act as a mailbox, if needed. Email is and has been obsolete, not private nor secure for decades. This is the upgrade. You do not be to be reached constantly nor instantly all the time. People can leave messages as they leave emails. Debotnet your lives and get back to normalcy.I also use TOR in Mullvad Browser with "Safe" settings on, with uBlock origin to do all my light browsing. I'm not a pedo nor do I have any sick and twisted interests, but, I sure as fuck don't like people in my fucking business. I also use this combination to use Google Gemini to figure coding and tinkering tips and solutions and to browse bitchute.That's as far as I go. Tor is useful and I'm learning in thread about I2P.
>>108476024Aren't you mixing up dark web and deep web?
>>108475533ok so can i host my website without having to payf or a domain name if i use this? how does that work?
>>108472726Use Dark Web Search
>>108479423i look, act and feel like that
>>108479303>can i host my websiteNo. You can host an "eepsite" on i2p and "hidden service" or "onion site" on Tor, though.
>>108479423>mfw this is what Channel 4 has devolved toMan I used to watch Max Headroom and such shit on there back when I lived in the UK. With the jokes he made they'd make him incel chud patient zero. The fact that they're so desperate they feel the need to make propaganda like this shows how hopeless their side of the argument is when a basic observation of reality destroys their narrative. It's also funny because their depiction of the chud is exactly how troons groom kids online but they'll never mention that for obvious reasons.
>>108479850If its only a personal use website is that a cleverer idea than using clearnet? i dont want to keep paying for a domain name.
>>108480156like how do i actually visit my website over i2p then? can i visit it over public wifi or mobile data?
>>108480156>>108480604If I'm not mistaken brave has Tor built in, so maybe a normie could access it. Clearnet to darknet proxy sites appear and disappear without notice, so only sure way would to be for interested person to also run Tor or I2P, and then yes, they could use any random Internet connection like public WiFi.
>>108480689ok! i didnt know that, im gonna look into it and definitley run my site on i2p instead of clearnet, thanks!
>>108475906hey man i just found a reddit post of him being accused of copystriking a random video of some conspiracy theories being debunked? whats up with that guy?
>>108472726Eat a onion
>>108475671Wait so this is just I2P on Layer 3? How many people use this compared to I2P? I feel like it would take too much effort to actually use it considering the amount of change that would need to go through.
