Dark web beginner

Should I not be going on the dark web on my personal computer? I downloaded tor and a vpn would this be enough to purchase from a site or should I download linux and use that? Maybe download it on a hard drive and use a public computer to do business? How do you guys go about doing this?

You can use your personal PC with a TAILS live environment (on a flash cart or SD card, for example.) and from there simply remove the hard disk. The BIOS will realize it is not there any longer and should boot from the next available media, which is your TAILS unit. Very simple, if you own a jeweler's screwdriver, of course.

If you truly cannot find the information yourself, or are unclear on things and just need an experienced opinion, ask here again, I will respond to personal messages if need be, and I can also be paged by typing /u/PirateRadioBroadcast anywhere on reddit, but the only people I forsee having your best interest in mind are the ones who will encourage you to educate, and help yourself, as it is the only advisable and relatively secure answer.

I could for instance, message you directly, and offer to send you a premade and verified to work USB or SD cartridge, and it would funtion flawlessly, aside from the malware I have hidden in your persistence volume I was kind enough to set up for you, or use a program such as ghost to slipstream my malware directly onto the install ISO image, and you would boot it up and install infected, right from the rip.

Aside from that, you don't NEED public wifi, but it is another layer of security IF done correctly. Stay awat from CCTV, and for god sakes don't be the only person IN the coffeshop and ON TOR, as it would be very simple to put the pieces together, provided they had them, of the time you;

1) Entered the establishment 2)Connected to the wifi 3)Connected to TOR 4)CCTV saw you on the markets 5)You commiting illegal acts (such as willfully aiding criminal enterprise, perhaps?)

I am a moderator on the ACAS forums, and we have several sections I have prepared and already posted some useful information in. If you would like a link I would be more than pleased to supply one to you, and we could communicate further there, or here as you see fit.

Hope to see you around for a while!

best is linux TAILS + TOR browser no real need for VPN after that
