A VPN is a first step toward online anonymity, but a good one will cost you. Tor is a free alternative that's popular on the dark net.

Tor is faster than VPNs because it doesn't have to route your traffic through servers around the world. This makes it ideal for downloading large files and streaming videos while browsing in privacy (some VPNs throttle your bandwidth when you're doing those things).

Tor is not as secure as VPNs because its open source code has been studied by researchers who've found vulnerabilities and backdoors in the software that could allow someone else to identify and track you online—unless you use an add-on like NoScript Security Suite, which blocks scripts from running automatically on web pages that try to exploit these vulnerabilities as they load into memory. It also warns you of phishing sites before entering sensitive information like passwords into them.

You can find what you're looking for on the dark net, but you may have to look in some unforeseen places for it.

The dark web is a place where you can find what you're looking for, but it may not be easy to get there.

If you want to go into the dark net, you have several options:

• The easiest way is by using a search engine that crawls and indexes sites on Tor. To find these engines, look up "darknet search engines" and pick one that looks good to you. You'll need to make sure your VPN is configured with Tor before using any of them (if they don't provide this themselves).

• If a dark web search engine isn't enough, try social media—most people use Facebook or Twitter these days. You can also check out Reddit forums like /r/DarkNetMarkets/. These sites will give you links to other websites on the dark web as well as tips about how best to browse safely online and stay anonymous online in general.

Conclusion

There are plenty of ways to escape the watchful eye of Big Brother and find what you're looking for on the dark web sites. Just be sure you know what you're getting into before you dive in headfirst!
