Title: Help needed - Anyone handy?
Post by: Westinsides on September 15, 2013, 12:29 am
I'm brand newbie, king of noobs at this moment in time. I have read a few forums and they suggest getting pgp - Ive downloaded one from a link and it's put a program called Kleopatra on my PC, which I'm sure you are all more than familiar with. Just looking for a little advice on how to use it first of all and some general advice on the deep web, SR etc... if anyone can spare me thier knowledge and time it of course would be greatly appreciated...

The SR subreddit has a great guide. It walks you through every step.

I don't really get it. People are scared of any clearnet link, encrypt any message that they send and use tor browser for everything, but then they create a reddit section that they can brag about the drugs bought and remove all anonymity? 0.o
Suppose some people aren't as paranoid as others ;D

gpg4win and kleopatra is overly complicated and buggy- use gpg4usb- its 1000% better- so get it and practice in the pgp newbie thread
