How much risk am I taking by ordering on the darknet using Windows and no VPN?

Never used it before. I won't be using it often so I don't want to pay for a vpn or anything. I wouldn't be making any large purchases either.

Any input is appreciated. I'm a noob.

Edit. Drunk when I made the comments in this post. Don't think I made any grammatical mistakes, just saying so you don't mistake me for a retard.

Same as everyone else that does that...not much, unless younget caught. Vpn doesnt protect you when they catch it coming to your house.

That being said im a low use guy like 40 orders since '11 i didnt even encrypt for sr1. Stupid yep, but, your gonna get caught more in a mail fuck up than fucking up on your end, just by chance

Basically, do it or do not. A vpn isnt going to protect the package from splitti g open in a sorting machine. My 2 cents. Does it help yes. Be as safe as you can, but you cant stop a fuck up along the way, always a risk, it will never be 100%

I think this question might be better asked in DNMnoobs site /r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs. Not only will you hopefully get an answer, but it will provide valuable knowledge for other noobs edit: it has been done. by pizzadarrell he asked this question two months ago

A bootable tails usb take like 10 minutes to make, why not just make one and have one less thing to worry about?

No VPN means your internet provider will be able to track your movements. Tor might help a bit but VPN is the most secure at remaining anonymous as far as I know. I use VPN for all internet activity and not just darknet and torrenting and porno. I rather spend 40$ for the year than be paranoid all the time about the government watching me. Heck I'm throwing 100$ a month for internet anyways.

Don't know how you're going to get on a DNM without a TOR browser? That in itself should give a decent amount of anonymity. It all comes down to what you're actually risking, and whether they can really pin it on you. If you're picking up an eighth of weed and there is no real trail, how can they prove you ordered it? Also, if they did somehow pin it on you, the risk of what you're ordering is the inherent judgement call you need to make. In other words, look up the law and understand there's a value to who the cops bust. Like others are saying, if your buying a bit here and there for personal use... the odds and consequences... yeah? Study up.

vpn is like $7 a month why wouldnt you have it?

If you are asking these questions your are probably vulnerable to not only problems with LE, but your likely going to get scammed.

I recommend you do some research. The side bar is a good starting point, especially the "New to DNMs" link.

Get a VPN (cost me $6.95 a month), get a tails usb for all your DNM business, encrypt your address when you send it to vendors. It is not that big of a pain to protect yourself
