when you used TOR does our internet service provider (IPS) know what we r doing or we using tor browser.
Fake News, I'm on Google incognito mode and I am completely private.
@@CB-ly4uj chrome incognito is just deleting cookies and browser data it does not hide ip adress isp hacking etc. And is not private
I have a query, which CA is issuing TLS certificates to onion urls? All I know is entire onion urls are unofficial in this case how they get TLS certificate from trusted CA.
@@matejpoljsak511 he's just trolling
People: "Tor vs VPN, which should I use?"
Security experts: "Yes"
The guy who said "Good luck, I'm behind 7 proxies" probably ran Tor over a VPN, lol.
@@vgwarelearning4057 No, that's not what he said - he's talking about a tech that combines the 2, not "connecting to a vpn and then use Tor). In fact, Tor actually states on their website NOT to use a VPN and then use Tor.
@@davel9514 also rewatch 7:02, tor over vpn is literally just using tor+vpn
@@LC-hd5dc I guess I missed something, because I'm pretty sure he said DON'T use Tor+VPN at some point in this video, and like I said their own website states not using a VPN is the better option.
These comments are so cringe.
.
Finally I found a channel worth watching.
I lift my hat for the integrity and comprehensiveness of material illustrated.
Thank you very much.
Thank you for the kind words!
Why the dot at the first line ? Mind explaining ?
same thing i said. very good content sir
It found you
You are the one channel I actually recommend when it comes to layman cybersecurity. My friend had an identity theft episode because he didn't take his security seriously and after extensive research (which began before his episode) I recommended to him chiefly two things: That he use 2-factor authentication (most important IMO) and that he also not reuse passwords. I remember he shared with me his Hulu password and it was only five characters and also his first name. That's when I knew he needed help... The only channel I've ever recommended to others about their online security is yours. Because you've earned it. And I thank you for that.
What are your thoughts on Braxman?
Was his name Steve? I bet it was Steve
This is an amazingly put together video. Thank you for taking your time to teach us a thing or two about internet security.
My pleasure!

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Very professionally made video, clear and concise, and looks like you spent some time editing this. I learned something, since I use express vpn, but not a tor router.
That was an EXCELLENT simple explanation of TOR.
Thank you!
Thank you for the concise, straightforward ‘yes or no’ answer right from the start.
I just found your channel! I've been asking myself so many of these quotations about how secure or private are these services.
Thank you so much for making these videos!!!
Thanks, Tyler!!
I just found your channel via this video. Very educational on Tor & VPN strengths & weaknesses. When you pointed out that ppl handling their keys to commercial VPNs, it confirmed my suspicion on why I didn’t get a VPN yet & I’m gonna use the Tor/VPN solution that you suggested since I just downloaded Tor today.
For an extra layer you could run tor/vpn combo inside a VM (Virtual Machine)
@@Tosmasta00 how does this work ?
@@jim-7965 If you run a VM and connect to a VPN and Tor inside it, even if someone manages to find your data it belongs to the VM and not your actual device.
To put it simply, think of a VM like a garbage bag: even if you fill it with garbage, your home stays clean. After it's full, you just replace it with a new bag. Thats basically how a VM can act for your device. Basically it creates a virtual computer that runs through an app instead of hardware.
If you configure a VM properly on a network level, you can avoid getting your device fingerprinted (ID'd) since the VM will get fingerprinted instead your host device. Any system data collected is isolated from your physical device and belongs to the VM, which you can restart (Just like any garbage you collect is seperate from your home and belongs in the garbage bag, which you can just replace).
That's also how VMs protect you from malware. Any malware downloaded will only affect the VM and not your actual device. So if you're worried about suspicious files just use a VM to test first.
Great channel, great info in a layman's explanation yet covered in a professional manner, Thanks and Glad i Subbed
I like the pace and tone of voice he used to speak. I like his balanced assessment of the uses of both tools. I like that he provided other alternatives, but most of all... MOST OF ALL, I liked that he didnt tell us to like and subscribe before we even understood the value and incentive of his work. I appreciate that. Logged in just to say that and like 👍🏾
I appreciate that 👍🏻
Actually HE DID say like and sub @ 1:20 sorry
First time on this channel, great info. subscribed and liked.
Thank you for explaining in simple terms the difference between a TOR network and a VPN
My pleasure!
Thank you very much for this video, for this topic. Yes, it really does take time and money to make a very good video. Thumbs up!
Glad it was helpful! And thanks for the thumbs up/comment :)
As a novice working to enter cybersecurity this has to be the most succinct video on tor vs vpn I’ve seen, thank you!
Very clear to understand. Thanks ! Subbed.
Thanks Jafer! 🙏
Another good video, brief and to the point. Well explained without amateur dramatics or childish cartoons. I am a recent subscriber to your channel based on your simplistic approach to the topic. I like the explanation for TOR and the good supposition as to who owns/pays for the data throughput on it's servers and exit nodes.
Thank you.
Me Too!
Your video is presented so well for someone like me that has nothing to hide but needs geo axsess to tv viewing but the way you explain it makes me want to learn more and to learn
from advancing technology thanks for this so easy to understand and learn from
I always learn anything new from your vids
Glad to hear it!
This was a informative video. Thank you.
Thanks dude this really helped me a lot I did the steps that's you did thanks man!
Very informative, nice contents explain both in a way that a newbie also understands it.
Thanks for such a lucid explaination! Subscribing your channel man
Thank you!
Excellent presenter. Content and delivery are spot on. Production quality is not the most sophisticated... but the content and the strength of the presenter steal the show. Liked. Subscribed.
Thanks. Quality gets better with every video, I hope.
This so straight to the point and informative. Top quality channel here on security, hands down.
Thanks 🙏
Great Explanation, this really helped me to understand better between VPN and TOR
This video was perfect perfect perfect keep up the good work and I'm subscribed for life.👍
Thx .Nice easy beginners guide. helped plenty!
Josh, thanks for another great video-- really enjoying your channel and the privacy tech you discuss. I wonder if you're aware of any tools that help protect against browser fingerprinting? If so, any chance we could see a video on this? After all, any other methods of privacy are a whole lot less effective if your browser is screaming out "Hey- this is who I am!" Thanks again
Great suggestion, Joe! I’ll add it to the list.
Thoughtfully composed narration. Well done.
Thanks 🙏
Thanks for the info, I found it very helpful.
WOW! This was expertly presented. You have a new subscriber!
Thanks, Elijah!
U gotta make it look so easy, thx bro!
Very informative. Thanks.
I can't thank you enough... hands down the best video for beginnners
👍👍👍Thank you, learnt something new today. 🙂
My pleasure, Bob!
ah that was very helpful, simple, and informative. Subbed & Thanks
Thanks for the sub!
TNice tutorials video really helped! Thank you ❤
Very nice explanation. Thanks
Thanks, Rafal!
Josh, thank you for such a good video.
My pleasure!
Great video. Thank you!
Lovely video! Thank you very much!
This dude is awesome, great vids!
This video earned you my subscription.
Glad to hear it 👍🏻
I mainly use a VPN to securely connect to my home network from the outside to access my NAS, website, domotics/IoT, printer, etc. Similarly also use a VPN for accessing any websites securely while on a public Wifi. I would add that to the advantages of a VPN, although "normal" usage of a VPN would be from your home to a defined "outside" securely for indicated reasons as in the video. Tor usage maybe nice for safe but slow browsing from home. using Tor over VPN is interesting for sure. DVPN: I will look into this one. Thanks for the clear explanation and distinction of it all.
Awesome video, subbed!
Thank you for detailed information.
My pleasure, Ake!
Informative. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! It helped a lot.
Thanks "All things secured" for the explaining. This subjects generally are confused.
thanks a lot for the informative video 👍👍
Amazing content as always
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the excellent video!
Very Helpful, thank you!
Glad to hear it!
Very complete and correct information, hope it helps clarifying false claims. Also... uh... never thought of routing TOR through a VPN but the video has a point there. As for TOR, it's prolly invincible, for most if not all practical purposes, tracking it is just beyond difficult.
It would be very difficult to track, that’s for sure.
Great explanation I've tried VPN and Tor at the same time and my download speeds using torrents was 20% of bandwidth. With a VPN only (fastest server) I got 75% bandwidth. Without any protection I got 60%
So in your experience, your download speeds were higher with a VPN? While not impossible, it’s not very common.
@@AllThingsSecured I know some of the vpn providers optimize servers for torrent traffic, while not using a vpn your speed can be throttled by the isp when downloading torrents.
Great info…subscribed
helped so so much this is a greatly put together video
Glad to hear it.
Your videos are very top-quality stuff. thanks.
Thanks 🙏
you just earned a sub. thanks!
I learned something new again. Thanks
Glad to hear it! You’re welcome 😎
@drew_hacks01 on Telegram helped me with good and strong VPN thanks for your time
Great video!
What if you already have a corporate VPN? Does using a personal VPN or Tor make sense in that case?
Layering them on top of each other might not work, but when you’re on a personal device, it would be helpful.
Great video thanks for the info 👍🏻👍🏻
No problem 👍
I agree with you on your points and technical remarks; it must be said is much easier to access your data from your provider, than ask them to a vpn service located in a different country, so it’s an additional strong bureaucratic barrier.
An accurate and factually correct report, very nice.
Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻
My pleasure
VPN might actually also help on ISP spying. They (ISP) can't see the content of a secure page but they sure can see the URLs of the pages that you visit and also the protocols that you are using. Plus they (all of them) have direct access and monitoring on your local network through the pre-compromised backdoor (aka service) accounts that are invisible and preinstalled on you free ISP router. That alone is a good reason for VPN usage and that is what most of people mean when they are talking about VPN privacy.
You mean without VPN, ISP can see the contents of secure page such as an email inbox?
This statement is not unconfusing
@@ORION-ir5dx I agree about ISP: They can see anything trough the router. Some time ago, i put some "barriers" to minimize the exposition: Firewall (physical) between the router and my network. Also, behind of firewall, i put an enterprise grade core switch with VLANS and multiple network segments. Nothing is 100% secure but its better than nothing :)
The question is if DNS goes through the VPN or not. If it does, its encrypted and the ISP cannot see it. Otherwise you must find a way to secure DNS.
They can't see protocol for sure beyond IP which is fundamental for routing. UDP and TCP packets could be identified but ports are used, and protocol is not guaranteed. Sure some simple heuristics are right 99% of the time, but these generic protocols can be used however you program them to.
Thank you very much.
Nice tutorial Micheal, great video to get us started. May you tell - how do I link two or more channels (in the rack channel) as to share the sa
You're the first youtuber that talks about dvpn nice
I’m sure I’m not the first, but thanks!
Thanks for the vid!
Great information thanks for the review.
My pleasure! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍🏻
@drew_hacks01 on Telegram helped me with good and strong VPN thanks for your time
Good info. Thanks.
My pleasure!
We sell a VPN service to individuals (and offices), but the key advantage of our service besides encryption is that it places the user behind a next-generation firewall. That can be our data center or in their own home (permitting them to appear to be using the Internet from their home even when traveling). This provides essential protection from many forms of hacking and malware.
Amazing video my amigo, cheers from Venezuela.
Love the analogy
Great vid. Thanks. : )
Thx very good explained
well explained ✨
Thanks!
2:15 that’s a good analogy of the TOR network
Thanks! I’m glad it’s helpful.
Appreciate your info 👍🏻 and sub
Thanks!
Thank you sir for making this video, really helped a lot.
Glad it helped, Akash!
Another good alternative is TAILS, which is used on a Flash drive and boots up on your computer - nothing is on your computer, and everything is on your Flash drive or external HDD if you want. It comes with TOR, THUNDERBIRD, an OFFICE to use, Keypass, and a few other items. It is free and not difficult to install on a flash drive. A good video explaining the differences between VPN and TOR and when they should be used.
That's awesome. Does it work on an android phone via usb c otg?
@@machoprotegido5607 I don't know, I know that TOR works on Redmi - an Android - Haven't tried it on my iPhone but I believe TOR would work. Not sure about the OS though.
Thank you!
Fantastic video
I just tried tracert command with ProtonVPN and I could see the difference with VPN enabled and off. How does it look with Tor ?
thanks for info good job!
My pleasure!
subscribed the channel.. Very informative..
Thanks, Sarath!
Brilliant and clear
Thanks, member of CZcams.
Great brother
youtube suggestion done right! subscribed

Hi Josh....love your amazing videos. Question, I downloaded Tor a couple of weeks ago, didn't use it yet till I know what I'm doing. Yesterday I was cleaning old photos - images I have in my Mac documents, and I found inside of one of my wife's real Estate folders, a lot of hidden Tor stuff. This never happend before, and I got nervous and deleted Tor. I also found the regular Tor foulder in the applications folder, which is normal. Any advice on this subject, will be appreciated. Thanks
Thanks Rudy. Honestly, I don’t have any idea why you would have Tor files there. I assume you just downloaded the Tor browser, correct?
@@AllThingsSecured Yes Sir...only the browser. Do you trust Tor?? maybe I downloaded it from the wrong web, who knows..thanks anyway.
