Ok, so I want to use a good VPN that (I hope) doesn't keep logs, and run TOR through that, so my ISP can not see that I'm using TOR.
I have read that this safe, and also that it is not. It kind of makes sense to run all traffic, Tor and clearnet, through VPN, like so many people do, but then, if your DMN account is somehow traced back to the VPN and they do keep logs, that's certainly problematic.
But if you don't use the VPN for anything but TOR, then it's clear you're up to something, isn't it? Whereas VPN usage itself is fairly normal.
Are there certain settings for the VPN?

If you decide to use USPS Express shipping be careful as it more likley to be returned to sender. Had this happen to me once. Ordered express shipping and the next 2 or 3 days I didn't hear anything. Eventually the vendor says the package was returned to sender and that I have nothing to worry about. Few weeks later I get a love letter from the Postal Inspector claiming they had a package for me containing illegal substances and that I should contact them, I never did. I believe express mail has a higher lileyhood of being returned to sender because if the USPS doesn't make it to you in one day then the sender get's their moneyback anyway, so they figure just to return to sender if it doesn't get to the recipent within 1 day.

If you order alpha-PHP make sure you order more than one gram. That's just not safe.
