If you really become anonymous, you need to learn to be a hacker because that is not possible as a regular user who uses the internet all day long. You will leave some cache or cookies from any website you visit or the online store. Using VPN does not make you fully anonymous, but it could help you hide your real IP.

As long as you can be careful when you connect internet, I think you can feel safe and not too worried. I think you do not have to feel too stressed thinking about anonymity or not because you can prevent the bad thing that can happen to you.

Doing something illegal doesn't mean he is trying to scam or defraud anyone. There are plenty of things which most people would agree are completely acceptable and yet highly illegal in various countries and jurisdictions, such as whistleblowing, standing up for LGBT rights, offering abortion services or healthcare to women, assisted suicide, assisting illegal immigrants, fighting against dictators or oppression, and so on. Even feeding the homeless is illegal is some places.

Just because OP wants to protect his privacy doesn't mean he is going to deceive, steal, scam, etc.

All of the above who unsubscribed seem to have become assistants to a young hacker or fraudster.
It is possible to remain anonymous on the Internet, but it looks like it needs knowledge, and the OP does not have it. But at the same time, he is going to do something not very good and asks for help from those people whom it will be possible to deceive in the future.
OP, although the forum does not prohibit cheating, but since your request clearly states that you require privacy for not-so-good activities, you just need to change the forum to get all the knowledge of how to hide on the net. Probably the darknet is too difficult for you, but the carding forums will teach you for a certain amount how not to fall for the police.  Grin

Is there a way to reach another level of safety, or are my choices limited?
I once read one source about the advantages and disadvantages of online activity, hidden history, especially about anonymous identity.

Maybe, at a glance @decodex already explained for you about VPN vs. Tor.

However, I never use any of my online activities with a VPN or Tor, I have a comparison source between the two, have a look below:

Using Tor vs. VPN for Anonymous Browsing

Remember, I'm not telling you to use a VPN or Tor, I'm just showing you as a comparison, for sure everything you do online, of course you understand it better.

I would do what o_e_l_e_o suggested. If there's a business in their or a free wifi then you should connect to it as it can't link to yourself
That's not what I said.

You book in to a hotel and do something illegal over their WiFi. They have a record of your name and booking details, so you are now one of a very small number of individuals who can be linked to that criminal activity. You walk in to a coffee shop and do something illegal over their WiFi. You bought a coffee using your credit card and your face is on their CCTV cameras, so again, you are a suspect (not to mention shoulder surfing). You have no idea how secure or otherwise their WiFi is. Are they monitoring all your traffic? Are you leaking data? Is someone else in the vicinity trying to hack in to your device?

Ideally, I would buy a burner phone with a burner SIM anonymously with cash. If you need to top up the SIM, again, do so anonymously with cash or with anonymous bitcoin or monero. Tether your laptop or other device through that connection, and destroy the phone and SIM when you are done. You'll want to do all this in a location distant from your home, obviously.

It may be completely impossible to hide your tracks on the internet because apart from all the instructions, carelessness may set it at times. However instead of hiding your tracks on the internet, you can strive to create a pseudo identity to help hide your real identity and it will has to start from beginning from getting a device maybe through someone and getting burner numbers and mails.

o_e_l_e_o actually suggested not using a a public WiFi which would actually reduce your privacy and leave multiple tracks that can be traced or even compromise your security, such as how using a VPN could expose your IP address and other information to their server.

Hey there everyone, I'm looking to achieve the peak security and privacy while I deal and transact with cryptocurrencies and I gotta say that my line of work I'm looking at isn't the most ethical,
I would add that when privacy features are suggested on the forum, it's usually because there are ethical reasons why an individual would not want all their information to be publicly available, I'm a bit skeptical if you have unethical ones.

I would do what o_e_l_e_o suggested. If there's a business in their or a free wifi then you should connect to it as it can't link to yourself and when you do crypto transactions then you can use mixer to help masked your transaction. I wouldn't say that you can be invisible to the Internet. I would say that there could be part that can be covered and some can be tracked but not all of it.

I contacted and read about ExpressVPN and it is said to be one of the most encrypted
There is not such thing as “most encrypted”. It either uses unbreakable encryption or not. If you want anonymity prefer Tor. It's much more trustworthy than the VPNs which will inform the police at the first opportunity.

VPNs do not provide any anonymity at all; the provider knows your IP and that's enough to trace you. They offer a supposed meter of privacy.

Is there a way to reach another level of safety, or are my choices limited?
It depends on what things you've done and what info you've given. If I were you I'd do what o_e_l_e_o suggests just in case.

Is there any case where using my own, actual computer is *safe*?
Not 100%, no.

Say if I transact on a website, even if I use untraceable crypto
The closest we have to untraceable crypto at the moment is Monero.

a VPN
VPNs do not provide anonymity. All your data goes through the VPN server and can therefore link your real IP address to your destination address, as well as monitor all your traffic.

they don't ever keep your data, but I am not sure if that is true.
It's true until it isn't, and you have no way to verify what they claim.

Buy a laptop anonymously with cash. Rip out the hard drive. Boot to a live OS designed for privacy from a USB drive such as Tails. Connect to the internet via a connection that is in no way linked to you or could be used to find out who you are (so not a public hotspot where there are CCTV cameras). Do everything over Tor. Do whatever you need to do, then destroy the computer. Still not 100% safe though. And you also need to be aware of all the tracks you will be leaving on the blockchain, viewable to anybody.

You can never be truly anonymous, since there is no level of absolute anonymity online. The only way to remain truly anonymous is to avoid the Internet altogether.  Cheesy

While not entirely foolproof, you may want to consider using the Tor browser for an extra level of security. Tor is a network of tunnels that can route web requests and downloads. It's not a VPN, although it might be even more effective in masking your identity.

continuation of the title -> on the internet/and in the crypto space?

Hey there everyone, I'm looking to achieve the peak security and privacy while I deal and transact with cryptocurrencies and I gotta say that my line of work I'm looking at isn't the most ethical, and I'm looking to ensure my safety. Is there any case where using my own, actual computer is *safe*? Say if I transact on a website, even if I use untraceable crypto, a VPN, and anonymized data, if it leads to that, the police can still obtain data about me through my VPN, correct?

I contacted and read about ExpressVPN and it is said to be one of the most encrypted and safe, they don't ever keep your data, but I am not sure if that is true. I personally own a 2nd hand ExpressVPN subscription because that way I have in no way bought it personally.

Is there a way to reach another level of safety, or are my choices limited?
