I also think thats a huge problem.. I feel like express vpn is watching my balls when i use them. Next time, i will try another VPN but i guess the experience will stay the same anyways

They are not really trustworthy especially when they are located in the US or related countries like UK, Australia or even Canada.

But still, i just want to stay anonymous to goverment, google, facebook and everything. for example i cant create a google account even without my phone number so i would need to buy a new unrelated prepaid SIM to accomplish that.

Which i would actually enjoy alot even for using signal. But my SIMs location is trackable isnt it?

you're gonna wind up burning 5000 calories a day staying under the radar and then slip up with something totally innocuous anyway. save yourself the effort, stay away from the obvious stuff and assume they can find if they want to, because they can.

What do you want to be safe from? That's a rather elaborate set of measures to be posting on here.

A VPN is only as safe as they claim it is. I wouldn't be surprised if many of them are gaily handing over whatever info The Man wants.

That's important. Most VPNs, especially the free ones, can track your activity anyway, it's just that they're tracking you instead of whatever website you're on. There are a few anonymous ones which are paid but I find it hard to trust some VPNs because they might have control over information.

Here are those on, and I'm also a beginner and I hoped for a less complicated handling of bitcoin. How things will now be with the fact that everyone is waiting for the popularization of bitcoins and the use of ordinary people by the crypt. Then how will they benefit if it's hard? Or is it a chance to earn a noob?

I think you are being a real noob here. First one, why would you pay your account with a Paypal if you can just pick a normal browser, mozilla firefox or chrome? Second, from who are you hiding from? this is a forum, not a hacking site, this is not the deep web where you log in and your address and identity will bw revealed. I am a member of these forum for a while now and I still here, no problem, not even hacked for once. People do that if they have important files or documents in their site or money into it, accessing just these forum by Tor won't help you because the siteare not having that kind of people.

I just want to create a profile that is not in any way linked to my normal accounts. Reasons are not relevant.

You have done great from being anonymous I think tor browser is just enough if you are just using this forum although having a vpn is a must even if you are not a crypto currency user this is to avoid being snoof by hackers and authorities,just don't use your anonimity to scam others or do bad deeds.

You cannot stay anonymous once you go through a PayPal account and some VPN's are also compromised and a lovely honey pot for these 3letter

agencies. People will just have to accept that "internet privacy" is impossible. There are just too many exploits and internet surveillance tools that

makes this basically impossible to be 100% anonymous. Edward Snowden gave us the evidence of that... Angry

ExpressVPN seems way too commercial to not be involved in some kind of selling user data. what VPN is recommended?

You can try one of these.

Many VPN providers accept Bitcoin. I can't tell you which ones are solid. You won't know until there's a data leak, and then it will be too late.

Good catch. Now OP's IP can lead to his personal details. It's enough to contact the VPN to reveal his payment method, that will lead to his paypal account, and through it to his bank account.
OP, I'd advise you to use TOR instead of a VPN or use VPN that accepts bitcoin and remember that you're never 100% safe and anonymous. You'd have to steal internet connection, like hack into your neighbor's wifi. This combined with TOR and a clean computer with linux would give you a decent level of anonymity.

Hey, i created this account by using a VPN that i paid with my PayPal on a normal MacBook using a eMail address created with the same simple VPN mask in a Chrome Incognito Tab and i'm really wondering if that makes me safe. (Do i have a Keylogger on my mac preinstalled by apple anyhow? does my Incognito Tab in any ways "disconnect me from my usually logged in identity" ? Or do they link the two and im logged out but.. not really?

I don't believe Apple have any keylogger pre installed on your Mac. We all know Windows 10 has, everything you type in the big search box in the taskbar goes directly to servers of Microsoft.

You are not doing anything wrong if you are using a VPN as many people here use a VPN some even TOR browser to access the forum, this is a bitcoin forum, an anonymous one.

Just don't use it for scamming, as many scammers here hide in TOR to scam people. Scams are not moderated so you too since you are a newbie should do your own research before dealing with anyone here, or trading anything with anyone.
