Howto: Tor Browser Use (Safely)

Aug 26, 2021

Privacy is a Fundamental Human Right.
(As declared in United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights)

TOPIC OF THE DAY: Rules for Tor Browser (minimize browser risk)

Not intended to be an all encompassing anonymity guide. There are additional ways to increase anonymity/privacy: outside scope/subject of this article (and the browser alone).

First Step: Download Tor Browser

Recommendation (mentioned in video): Download WiPri- the very first thing I setup on a new Linux device. Offers options to randomize metadata including mac address, hostname, signal strength (location). These types of metadata (especially mac address) have been used to identify Tor users and their locations. Read the README.md and a future more in depth advice and guide video will come out.

Why? MAC address a very common identifier of deanonymizing Tor Users in past history. Client MAC address location databases are freely traded across the world. Including public.

(Tor Browser can be a great tool. But as with anything it is not perfect solution for everything.
It's another tool in our toolbox)

ADVANCED USE (ADDING ADDITIONAL PROXY HOPS):

Tor is a tool. Using Tor Browser alone is just fine for most people.

On the other hand, if you want to be extra cautious (say if your life is on the line), you may want to add even more decentralization by adding additional proxy hops (it's free!) using proxychains.

In cases like this, you don't need a VPN (not always helpful), you want Tor + Proxychains.

This video demo/Tutorial also shows you how to configure proxies in Tor Browser:
