Well, it's welcome to Tech 160. Today I'm going to be going step by step on how to get to the dark web. And don't worry, it's really not that scary. But if you don't have a VPN connection, now's a good time to get one. Here we go. So right now I'm in Sweden, according to my VPN anyway. I'm using pure VPN, which I recommend. They're pretty effective at doing what you want to do. As you can see, I have the security slash privacy profile. And full disclosure, you're going to be doing this at your own risk if you follow my instructions. I can get you to the dark web, but what you do there is all on you. First thing you're going to do is you're going to go to tourproject.org. That's where you're going to get the tour browser. Tour stands for the onion router. And that's how you're going to get to the dark websites. They are called onion sites because instead of ending in dot com or dot way of the end in dot onion. All right, so hit download and it detected that had windows 10. So just go ahead and download it by clicking the link. And right there on the website it says everything you need to safely browse the internet. And that's the common misconception is that it's really dangerous to go into dark web. It's not. It's a lot of times safer. It just depends on where you're going. If you're going to websites that post illegal activities and bring the wrong types of crowd, then that's kind of like you're looking for trouble. So if you're just trying to go there for informational purposes and knock it in trouble, then you won't find any. So it's a pretty quick download and once it's done, go ahead and run it. And Norton says it's a safe file. And then choose English. And then I'll just accept the default of where it's getting installed. And again, it's fairly quick install. So won't be too much longer until we have the tour browser. And then we're free to surf anonymously. And like I was saying about the VPN, even though I have one, you don't necessarily need one. The whole point of the tour browser is to be anonymous. You're going to connect to about three different nodes before you get to your exit node, which goes to the website you want to go to. All right, so we're all finished. Let's go ahead and double click the tour browser icon. And I was taking a little bit to start up there. You're definitely not surfing tour for speed. Like I said, because you're going through three different nodes, it's going to be pretty slow. Not painfully slow, but definitely not what you're used to. All right, so there it is. Welcome to the tour browser. So first thing we'll do is test the tour network settings. All right, congratulations. This browser is configured to use tour. And there you can see the IP address that they're assigning us. Well, that's what it appears to be anyway. And you can see that it's different from the VPN IP address assigned. All right, so first thing we'll do is we'll go to a Surface Web website. And from there, we're going to go find some some dot onion sites because right now we don't know any. We got to figure out what they are. So I'm going to go to duck.go.com. I like duck.go because apparently they don't track your searches. It says the search engine that doesn't track you. Right now I'm just going to do a quick search for best onion sites. And first one says nine must see dot onion sites from the depths of the dark web. So let's go ahead and click that link. See what we're working with here. All right, so eventually it'll come up. And here we go. These are all addresses for dot onion sites that we can access from the tour browser. Now if you try to click these links from let's just say Chrome, it's not going to happen. You need to be on tour to access these websites. You can see the all-end in dot onion. There's even a Facebook on the tour browser. And that's for countries that restrict the use of Facebook just so they can still access. Now they're still going to be visible on social media but they can circumvent the systems that prevent them from getting on there. And we scroll down. You can see I got quite a few here on the must sees. And there's a lot more out there but here's the hidden wiki. Let's go ahead and click this one. Now the hidden wiki is going to have a lot of links to a lot of different sites. And there's a lot of stuff that you probably don't want to see. And while that's loading up we'll go ahead and click a couple others. We'll do blockchain. And let's go to the duck duck go which has the dot onion handle. And then we'll do the Facebook. Alright so back to the hidden wiki. This is pretty much a one stop shop for anything that you're looking for. It's worth checking out. I wouldn't necessarily go clicking a lot of links on here. Because they're going to take each of a lot of places that you might not want to see. But it's definitely a good read. Some of it just to see what they have out there. As you can see I'm going to finance and have all these skin cards, clone credit cards, commercial services, big passports, big IDs, guns, fixable games. You can get a hacker. You got blogs, email. Social networks. Money book, the tariff work piece. Book for money. Definitely a lot of stuff you can get into. There's the wiki leaks. You're interested in reading those. And listed petapiles, the door box. I mean there's just anything you can think of you'll find in here. There's cat facts. Audio, videos, books, drugs, a dream market. I wouldn't go there. You can see it says this is a scam twice. But just about any other of these sites probably get you something illegal. I don't recommend clicking anything in a row. You can see it's probably definitely some stuff you won't feel to unsee. There's some different language stuff. All types of stuff you can get into. Like I said, this work is coming on and seeing what they have out here. Click the link to turn the rest. You're definitely getting some trouble. And then here's blockchain. If you want to get a Bitcoin wallet, purchase some Bitcoin that way you can do some transactions. Over the dark web, everything's going to be done in Bitcoin. I'm going to do some research if you're going to get into that. I'm sure that plenty of resources out there for you to learn what you have to do. Here's the Duck Duck Go, the Diannian. This little search or whatever you want it to. Just like Google. What can I do on Torbrowser? I'm not going to get traced back to me. But I'm searching for what can I do on Torbrowser. If you want to search for something that you don't want to trace back to, I would do it on the dark web. Then there's the Facebook. As you can see, it looks like a regular Facebook. You can just sign in or sign up. And access your account that way. Alright, well that's about it. I showed you how to get there. What you do there is up to you. Just try to stay ethical, try to stay legal. And make sure you have some fun, checking out some stuff. And just see what's out there. I want to thank you for taking the time out to watch this.
