once and for all,
im a beginner “noob” who wants to start surfing on tor.
Should i use a vpn over tor or not?
In a factual and non dumb way “Vpn are not needed since tor already acts like 3 vpns chained and secure already, just using a normal Vpn will just probably make it easier.”
Holy shit I’m tired of seeing this every day
r/torwithvpn
no, using a VPN is not needed and potentially harmful.
VPN is not necessary but it is necessary if you want to mask your tor activities from your ISP provider.
ISP provider are able to keep track of your traffic. They know it is some normal website surfing or you are using tor for dark web surfing.
thanks for all the replies i doubted someone would genuinely answer and give valid reasons
Maybe I just wasted my time.
i kiss your eyes bro
yep but everyone says something different
Multiple times each day. Admin?
trust me i wish i wouldnt have to ask such common dumb questions i js dont know any better
No. Using both a VPN with Tor immediately throws up red flags to your ISP and the Feds. There is just no reason for using both at the same time unless you want to be looked at! If you want to “mask” your activities from your ISP, use Tor Bridge.
My account has a bad case of the bots
Ok? Doesn’t change the fact that VPNs are harmful to anonymity.
im just hoping for a more convenient answer from people who know more about this topic
Reddit claims to be tough on vote manipulation but this fellow has the downvote cooties smh
my Vpn provider is protonvpn i already got it since a good couple of months and basically (theoretically)my goal is buying narcotics without having to worry about no consequences including having data leaked etc
