Topic: Do you use Tor? - page 3. (Read 3559 times)
I once used tor to help my friend to win in the online voting. But this is child's play. It seems to me that using the tor browser creates more chances you have to protect yourself from hacker attacks. He keeps changing ip and tangle the traces of your stay online. But it's still not 100% protection.
The reason I started using it was that I was watching the movie ,which has consistently been included on "most disturbing movie". I wasn't familiar with the deep web, and that led me to Tor.
No
As quite a few of you gamble in cryptos casinos from countries where gambling is forbidden, I was wondering if you use TOR to hide your identity. Or if you use it as well, even if you don’t gamble, to avoid your movements being traced when operating with btc and other cryptocurrencies.
its not really worth the risk and hassle (using tor). to be honest, it is clear that regulators are not yet cracking down on bitcoin gambling, they could shut the site down overnight and seize the funds, the rest is just sorting through who is who (there is the blockchain, a public ledger, and the better of the casinos do basic kyc to cover their asses).
so the best thing you can do at the moment is simply enjoy it while you can. this is clearly illegal, yet there has been no official guidance yet. thrive in the void.
but i think it is unwise to leave winnings on a gambling platform while you are using them,due to my above argument. you never know when the situation will change, and the ease of moving btc off platform will make you feel like an idiot if you fail to do so. much like an exchange, dont leave funds on a hosted wallet.
be careful.
Yes, I use Tor when i need to surf from another country. As i'm not a tech specialist, i usually use this solution for easy surfing.
Do you lived in a country where Internet is censored or somewhat controlled by your government? Because you can browse or surf from around the globe without using Tor.
I only used Tor once or twice. Just for experienced to see how dark web looks and feels like. Well others used it to hide and protect their privacy. But as far as online gaming for me, I don't used it because I lived today in a country where Bitcoin is legal in a sense, same as online gambling.
Yes, but less than most people might assume, lol.
My most common use of Tor is on open wireless networks. I know too much about how easy it is for someone with a Raspberry Pi in their pocket to scrape every unencrypted password off the unencrypted WiFi and analyze it all at his or her leisure, and Tor encrypts that first hop.

I'm no expert here, but from what you are saying, its easy to hack someone if he/she is using Tor on Wifi? So it really defeat the purpose of being private and secure using Tor?
Some people use it because they think it's cool, and there are some available guides on how to do it

I doubt that you cant use tor when it comes on accessing gambling sites because once you do set the strongest security of your privacy then it would really turn off some things on your browser which usually on Java thing and to know that some of them would really require this thing for it to run or display.If you do try to input a certain gambling site and you do able to play since it displayed well then youre at luck but I do believe than it would really be on smaller chances because most of the time you would really experience problems accessing them. I use Tor,but not for gambling or for illegal sites,but to visit any websites anonymously (for privacy reasons and not leaving my IP)
It seems to me that it is an illusion of anonymity. Tor cannot protect you. This browser hides your ip address but if you wish you can track. For example, you can try to cheat Google. Or to check on a special website your level of anonymity while using Tor browser.
To my shame, I have not had a chance to use Tor yet. Think it’s high time to have a look how dark web looks like.

As for my case, i don't use TOR because in my country bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency is legal here, so there is no real purpose to use TOR and besides I'm not doing anything illegal to hide my identity.
Tor Browser is Not Really A Safe haven of Transactions, Since It Can Be Done With Anonymity and the Same thing Goes Can Be Trace Anonymously. This Browser is Known By Great Agency that always Trace Identity's Like FBI, and Any Government. Many untrusted Sites In Tor Browser Especially Gambling Sites Even Thou you Hide Your Identity Still Not Always A Safe Haven. In My own Perspective better to Use VPN Than TOR.
I actually have not seen the need for the use of Tor browser before because I have nothing to hide neither do anyone threatening me based on my activities on the internet but the moment that would happen, I can then consider it. With several news if dark web and the like on Tor and how law enforcement agents disguise in other to deceive people and get them in sting operations, I wonder whether its even safe as its being proclaimed.
Using tor is just an illusion of your safety network. Even if you use VPN it does not give you a 100% guarantee from the fact that you can keep track of the government and hackers. People who use such primitive methods to anonymously visit the Internet most often fall under harassment. As quite a few of you gamble in cryptos casinos from countries where gambling is forbidden, I was wondering if you use TOR to hide your identity. Or if you use it as well, even if you don’t gamble, to avoid your movements being traced when operating with btc and other cryptocurrencies.
I've used TOR before, but I don't really dabble much in the darknet market scene, so I don't have much use for it. In most cases, I'd prefer to use a no-log VPN (or TOR browser in conjunction with a no-log VPN).
Is this possible if u done a lot of transactions with one address in your electrum wallet and then want your future transactions to be anonymous?
TOR isn't enough to make your transactions anonymous. It's pretty well known by now that governments and law enforcement agencies are running a lot of TOR exit nodes, monitoring activity. The best option for anonymity we have right now is Monero.
Not just running nodes. DARPA funded TOR in the beginning. If I wanted to keep tabs on criminals and people who don't want me to know about things, I would just tell them that there was no possible way for me to track them if they used a certain program.

In some casinos I can't get bonuses, or sometimes some promotions doesn't work for me cause of people from my country are banned, for I don't know what kind of reasons. In some casinos I can't even register.
I never used Tor before, but if I install Tor will I be able to play normally in casinos where now I have restrictions?

I don’t really know because I haven’t used Tor that much but what I can tell you is that it has some privacy options so if you go for the highest privacy you probably won’t be able to run some features because, for example, JavaScript doesn’t work. You will probably be able to access some forbidden sites in your country but authorities could see that you are using Tor.
I am assuming you talk about casinos where you can play without downloading any software, if this was the case I think it would be better to use VPN.

Can help me to better understand Tor.
