In r/AskNetsec, newcomers ask for minimum safe setup for dark web browsing, and replies converge on isolation via VM or Tails, IP masking, and strict avoidance of downloads and unknown links.
What are some general tips or best practices for browsing the dark web without putting yourself at risk?
I would think running a virtual machine and masking your ip would probably be the best route.
Use VM with clean snapshot. Always revert and always keep it updated.
If you don't know what you're doing, I'd suggest using Tails or similar bootable OS to keep everything isolated.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD FILES, OPEN REDIRECT LINKS, open deepweb links that you are not sure about.
