Quote from: Altered Dimensions on October 02, 2013, 10:31 amSo is tails the safest way to browse SR or what? i have tried reading through all the tails documentation but really only gathered from it that your isp can tell your using tor and possibly tails but now what you are viewing on tor.Having said that is that a bad thing? what countries is using tor considered suspicous or not advised?Alsp VPN??? i have heard stuff about VPN but it has me mighty confused, should tails users be using VPN as well to maintain compete security and hide the fact your using tor?I also seen that in the startup screen of tails it mentions your not connected to a VPN or is it VPM?think it says something along the lines of virtualbox additions failed and a warning on the right hand sideI don't know but it makes it sound as if the developers wanted you to use this feature?If anyone could point me in the right direction of using VPN with tails or VPM (whichever one it is) or if i even should be trying to achieve this i would be greatly thankfull.Tails is probably the best method of accessing SR right now. It's chief advantage is that it is not supposed to leave any traces on your host machine. SInce you mention virtualbox additions, you appear to be running Tails in a virtual machine. When you launch Tails, the software checks whether it is being run in a virtual machine and. if so, issues a warning that the host operating system could potentially access data from the running Tails instance (and vice-versa). A VPN is a Virtual Private Network. In general, I don't recommend these, as they are essentially one-hop proxies. Astor has stated that one should never use a VPN whose existence has been discussed here on the Forums, and I concur. Once it becomes known that you're using a particular VPN provider, the authorities will simply single-out that provider, and attempt to unmask you.
