It amazes me that onion sites aren’t everywhere. They are easy to spin up, you don’t have to pay anything and can run it from your own home. No need to purchase a domain, worry about expiration, have an open port. Built-in DoS protection. Anonymity and authentication by default. No need to configure HTTPS. Sure, uptime is on you and there is some latency/bandwidth limits to be considered, but once you are over that, onions are a solution to many problems and the benefits are enormous.
I’m more worried about opening up a port in my home network.
You don’t. The tor service connects out to a node. This is also nice because it means you can run it behind nat and firewall and whatnot without problems.
I’d still have to read up on it and, at the very least, containerize it and preferably use a home router that supports VLANs.
just gotta say, I find it hilarious that an outspoken advocate for russian communism uses TOR… which was created to aid democracy advocates in authoritarian states. with funding from the US gov.
bwahahahahaha
“Democracy” advocates… “Authorian” sure. I guess there is a reason I stopped using it.
Also its Marxism-Leninism, not Russian communism.
buddy it doesn’t matter what label you put on the turd, it still stinks.
