Tor Browser Security Settings
Proper Tor configuration is critical for anonymity when accessing Black Ops Market. Follow these settings for maximum security.
Set Security Level to "Safest"
Click the shield icon → Security Settings → Select "Safest". This disables JavaScript and other potentially dangerous features.
Don't Resize Browser Window
Browser window size can be used to fingerprint you. Keep the default size to blend in with other Tor users.
Never Install Extensions
Browser extensions can compromise your anonymity. The Tor Browser comes pre-configured with all necessary features.
Don't Open Downloads in Tor
Downloaded files may contain scripts that reveal your real IP. Open files only when disconnected or in a VM.
Use New Identity Regularly
Click the broom icon to get a new Tor circuit. This prevents session correlation attacks.

Connect to VPN first, then open Tor Browser.

Tor → VPN
Connect to Tor first, then VPN through Tor.

Common Security Mistakes
Using Regular Browser
Never access .onion links with Chrome, Firefox, or other browsers. Only Tor Browser.
Reusing Usernames
Don't use usernames from other platforms. Create unique identities for darknet.
Skipping 2FA
Two-factor authentication is essential. Enable it immediately after registration.
Sharing Personal Info
Never share real name, address, or identifiable information in messages.
Using Bitcoin
Bitcoin is traceable. Black Ops uses Monero (XMR) for maximum privacy.
