I didn't want to say... TOR!

But there, I said it: TOR!

And I don't want to say...TOR has been breached long ago, and is a far cry from secure. It's better than nothing, but infallible, it is not. I'm no cryptography whiz, but a simple search on this forum will lay it all out there for you. I just assume that anyone can set up a node and skimming data. A forensic analyst can turn a spiderweb of IPs into a glaring red arrow to your bedroom. It's not cheap or easy, but it wouldn't be the first time Johnny Law decided to make an example of someone.

Aside from all that, the human factor will kill you. All it takes is one little lapse where you operate unsecured and you are done if someone really wants to jam your life up.

Honest to god it doesn't even cost that much to trace a tor node to someone's parents basement. I'd never trust TOR to hide. Basically all I use it for is to see what the other side of the mirror is looking at. Everyone kicks and screams about how scary the deepweb is. If you are not looking for trouble however you usually won't find it. It's a wonderful library. Shit like 80% is archive. Totally not the point of this convo but hey... jus sayin

I checked out your posts since I couldn't believe the absolute falseness of the claims you were making. You don't think Tor is secure and anonymous? Any country can block access to any site in their country (it may be accessible via Mirrors, but thats another story). Considering all of the child pornography, weapon-selling sites, fraudulent document/account-auctioning sites and a whole lot of other illegal business, you REALLY think tor isn't anonymous. Get a clue. Those sites would be gone in a second if they could figure out how to get access (or WHO to get access to) to what they needed to delete them. You don't have a clue. The only way someone could POTENTIALLY be traced via tor is via their activity. If you don't use Vidalia to change your identity to get a new IP (the single click of a button), then they can track the activity of some say...Lithuanian IP address. Tell me exactly HOW they figure out who that IP address belongs to, though. Because its not anyone in Lithuania.

And that communication between your PC and that IP in Lithuania just happens by...magic? Telekinesis?

Dumbass.
