https://www.torproject.org/index.html.en I saw Tor mentioned in an article about underground purchases and a developing world wide exchange that is 'outside the edges' of regulation. (My science fiction: Occupy creates an alternative system that allows people to democratically organize credit unions and put the big banks out of business) I was going to download the browser to look at but my Norton preferred that I didn't. What's the deal?
Just make sure you're downloading it from a reputable source and know how to use it. If that's the case just ignore Norton.
This. Go to www.torproject.org to download and read info. You must read up on it to understand how to use it. It is not a quick download and use type of thing.
Anyone who makes money off my information and doesn't offer me either a cut of the profits or significant content in return. Any government agency at all for any reason at all. Any data collection agency that is documenting my activities/visits when I haven't explicitly given them permission to collect my data.
Your government seems to be a part of this thing. I have 0 IT knowledge, but from a quick read of the wiki and website, seems this is aimed at keeping people like anonymous and harmless companies out. Could anyone with a good understanding of this stuff give us a dummie breakdown? Could be monumentally useful for me.
Help a brother out, I need some guns, drugs and whores, er, I'm interested in the cultural possibilities for the near future. That's it, I'm a Futurist! yeah
Wow, what a creepy place -- did some reading on this last night and found a blog with screen shots of the 'so called' deep web. I don't understand why you would want to go there so that you're anon on the internet unless you wanted to look at very illegal websites -- plus everything looks like a site from about 1994.
I would say 94 was just before companies really started investing in their online storefronts and ecommerce, so the code that was being used was just the minimalist HTML that didn't required racking up the New Visitors numbers, or tricks to extend someone's Visiting Time On Site to ensure sales. IMO it's before the WWW really went commercial.
