Using Cell Phone on the DarkNet

So I plan on getting a used android phone from craiglist or where ever to use for the DarkNet ONLY. I will be using a VPN, Orfox/Orbot, and my work WIFI.

Is that still not a good idea? Or will I be safe?

and my work WIFI

don't do this.

Absolutely not. Android OS is incredibly insecure, TOR and a VPN won't keep you safe you from dick on an android. Android also makes it impossible for Orfox to adhere to all the design goals of the TOR browser at this time. Terrible idea.

How about using a stolen phone and public wifi?

I wouldn't use it at my job regardless of if it's anonymous completely or isn't.....just keep my work life and personal life separate and wouldn't want to be browsing the darknet while on my work wifi.

Check out the sliding scale for DW security I posted here:

What you are doing is totally unsafe.. but adjust what you do to fit your needs

LowPositive: Tails.

Work WiFi? Are you people even trying anymore? You're looking to get fired at a minimum.

As a buyer I have been using an android phone, for 18 months with absolutely no issues at all.

Orbot + vpn + different browser ...phone ready for remote wipe in case the brown stuff hits the fan. PayG sim card in swim's name.

Not 1 problem...touch wood, that set up has outlived a lot of marketplaces to be fair.

If I were vending, totally different story...probably

You’re fine it’s not illegal to browse and look at things on the dark net. Obviously if it was illegal the apps wouldn’t be available on the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store. LOL
