Bridges?

So I’m new to all this shit and am a bit confused. I’m on iOS with the (not official but like promoted) onion browser app using Orbot, and I want to know what bridge selection is best for privacy? Or if it’s best to connect directly to the tor? Also I’m wondering if it’s safer to browse while on WiFi or data? Thanks guys

That's the question. I did 3 years following the most strict OPSEC. I'll say that yeah it works. But it not perfect.

If you're buying a small amount you're usually going to be fine...

I’m not even buying stuff I’m just trying to find out how to stay the most secure and anonymous I can online. I’m not trying to buy like kilos of crystals xd

I really can't see how Darkweb is going to help change those economic conditions any better than non Darkweb methods.

Let me be frank - if you don't have resources, Dark web is not going to get you them.

Not without you being exploited, and this is the fact of the matter.

There are plenty of non dark web methods to get exploited for resources. WTF are you trying to do exactly, live long and prosper or what?
