Introduction
This is for remaining anonymous and safe from HACKERS online, not the FBI. I'm creating this tutorial to prevent HF members from being attacked by hackers. If the feds are after you, this tutorial isn't for you as you'll get caught either way. This tutorial is to provide members protection from hackers, swatters, doxers, ddosers, etc. I'm aware that there are already a lot of threads over these but this is for anyone who needs them that hasn't seen them yet, also, it's very detailed and long. I'll be updating this thread with new information over time so stay tuned. Please post to keep the thread active so more people can see it. Be sure to PM me with any suggestions or things to add. Also, PM me if you find any mistakes relating to links, grammar, etc. Let's make this one of the best threads out there. 🤝

Keeping Cool And Avoiding Being SE'd
Alright, this is probably pretty obvious but I want you to know this anyways as people fall for it a lot. AVOID BEING SOCIALLY ENGINEERED. You won't believe how much information you can accidentally give up. If someone asks you something like "lol bro i just tried to send you $5 but i think i might have the wrong email what is your email again?", you'll usually give them your email, and you know what? Their intention might not be sending you $5 after all. They may be attempting to dox you and they need your email address. You basically just gave up a big portion of your anonymity because you were tricked into giving up your email address. Do NOT give one bit information to someone when it's not mandatory or going to kill you. If someone says you won a giveaway and you give them your address, you've screwed yourself up. Do not give up one piece of information on yourself as I've said. Hackers rely on SEing a lot to gain information on their target and you can accidentally slip up and tell them the key to your dox. Here's an example of you being SE'd.
Your Doxer: Hey bud, what're you up to?
You: Nothing much man, just browsing the net. You?
Your Doxer: Well, I was trying to send you $5 because you're a chill guy and I've ran into some money lately but I can't seem to remember your email. Isn't that weird? Haha!
You: Dang bro, well do you still wanna send it?
Your Doxer: Yes man, you're a cool friend. So what's your email?
You: Oh, I'm flattered. My email is [email protected]
Your Doxer: Alright, cool man. Give me a second.
Your Doxer: Damn, my mom is calling me, give me one second pal.
You: Sure thing pal.
Your Doxer: Well, I'm back. My mom wants me to get off, I'll see you tomorrow man!
You: Alright, cya man!
Your Doxer: Proceeds to dox your email because you slipped up and gave him it unintentionally
Remember, keep cool and avoid being socially engineered.

Choosing a Good Browser
For a browser, I really recommend Firefox. If you want to use TOR, be my guest, but I personally use Firefox to remain anonymous. It has a bunch of addons to help your security. You can easily set up a proxy in the browser so you can combine your VPN with a proxy for extra protection.
You can download Firefox from the original website below -
Firefox by Mozilla
If you've decided to use Firefox, you've made a good choice and we're 1 step closer towards better anonymity. Now that you have Firefox, we'll need to use some addons to protect ourselves from hackers, doxers, etc. Remember, addons are not 100% trusted so try to minimize that amount you use. You can use TOR if you don't trust these addons.
[img]http://i3.minus.com/ibyYYvod22GNWC.png[/img]
Firefox Add-On List
This is a list of addons that will help you remain safe from hackers. If you don't trust one of them, you don't have to download it, I'm sure you'll find an alternative. 🤝

Https Everywhere
This allows you to visit sites with a secure Https connection.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

AdBlock Plus
This blocks all those pesky advertisements on a page that you don't want to see, or even the ads that send you to malicious sites. 😠
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

Request Policy
This add-on prevents all cross-site requests except a few big sites that you select when first installing the add-on.
You can also whitelist sites that you trust. You can even set a whitelist for a limited time, meaning when you close the tab, the site is removed from the whitelist.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

NoScript
This protects the user from malicious code by blocking scripts such as JavaScript. This also has a whitelist on whatever sites you choose.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

AdBlock Edge
An alternative to AdBlock Plus. I, personally, use this one instead of ABP but the choice is up to you.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

Web of Trust
This add-on tells you if a site is safe or not, think of it as an anti-phisher.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

Do Not Track Me
This add-on stops most third-party add-ons, search engines, etc. from tracking your cookies, history, and websites you've visited.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

Self Destructing Cookies
I love this add-on, a lot. Once you close the tab of the site you were on, it deletes all the cookies related to the site.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

Better Privacy
This add-on removes any local shared objects on your computer.
Learn more about it on the original site if you wish!

DuckDuckGo
This is an alternative to Google, but it is said to not keep logs and is very safe. I use this all the time and I recommend it if you care about your privacy. The search results are also really accurate so don't expect some cheap knock-off search engine.

StartPage
StartPage is an alternative to Google as well, but I haven't used it so I can't say that it's accurate or not, but it is safe as well.

Safety While Using Firefox
In order to stay safe using Firefox, we'll need to hide our IP address from hackers! In order to do this, set up a proxy for Firefox. In order to do this, you must follow these steps.
1) Open the Firefox menu, or, click those 3 bars stacked up on eachother below the X on Firefox.
2) Select "Options" and go to the "Advanced" tab.
3) Once you're in the advanced tab, click on the tab that says "Network" inside of the "Advanced" tab.
4) You should see an option to configure how Firefox connects to the internet, followed by a button that says "Settings...", click that button.
5) Once you click that, go over to this forum and find you a good proxy list, then select a proxy from that list. I suggest picking a proxy from the middle of the list as people usually just use the first proxy they see, meaning you'll have tons of other people using the same proxy as you.
6) Once you have that proxy, select the bubble in the "Settings..." tab that says "Manual Proxy Configuration", copy your proxy IP from your list, and paste it into the bar that says "HTTP Proxy" and the port into the box that says "Port".
If you're unaware of what to copy/paste, the proxy usually looks like this.
127.0.0.1:80 (Proxy IP:Port) Also, 127.0.0.1 and 80 are NOT what you should be entering, they are just an example.
7) Once you have that set up, select the box that says "Use this proxy server for all protocols" and press the "OK" button.
You're done setting up a proxy, now I recommend combining this with a paid VPN, but if you don't have a paid one, then just use a free one.

Now that you have set up a proxy, let's fix up our privacy. Go over to the "Privacy" tab and for "Tracking", select "Tell websites I do not want to be tracked".
For history, select "Use custom settings for history". Now still on the history part, select the box that says "Always use private browsing mode" to prevent history from being logged. You can select the box "Accept cookies from sites" but make sure you select "Never" on "Accept third-party cookies".
For the "Location Bar" part that says "When using the location bar, suggest:", select "Nothing" to cover up recent searches.

Now, let's get some better security, this will be helpful against dangerous sites. So first, go to the over to the "Security" tab.
Select all boxes that say -
1. Warn me when sites try to install addons
2. Block reported attack sites (I've been told that this may send reports to Google so keep it in mind)
3. Block reported web forgeries (I've been told that this may send reports to Google so keep it in mind)
Just another tip, go to the "Tabs" bar and select "Warn me when closing multiple tabs" and "Open new windows in a new tab instead". This is helpful in case you accidentally click a link and then you lose all your hard work (for example, I could accidentally leave this post and lose all this hard work).
Now, let's move on to the things outside of your browser.
[img]http://i3.minus.com/ibyYYvod22GNWC.png[/img]
Protecting Skype
I understand that Skype is easy to use but sometimes, those DDoSers or doxers will try and grab your IP to DDoS or ISP dox you. This will teach you how to protect your IP from them online. Also, make sure you're on the latest version of Skype.
1) Click on the "Tools" tab and then "Options..."
2) Then, go to "Advanced" and then "Connection"
3) Once in connection, change the settings to the same as the picture's settings.
Spoiler (Click to View)[img]http://s22.postimg.org/g76nuwj2p/Connection_Settings.png[/img]
These steps were provided by my bae, Ðexter, here.
You should visit the thread and follow his other steps in order to secure your Skype more. You should also try to be on a VPN at all times. You don't want to risk your IP at all because a resolver may not work while another does. This is why you should always try to use a VPN or a proxy. If you don't want to risk your IP regardless of those steps, then keep reading, because XMPP is what you need.
[img]http://i3.minus.com/ibyYYvod22GNWC.png[/img]
An Alternative to Skype, XMPP
XMPP, like Skype, is an IM system. You can use this to chat with your friends without worrying about those dicks grabbing your IP address and DDoSing you until you're married in another country with a different identity (hyperbole, you get what I mean though) so that's why I use it. It's fairly easy to set up and I'll show you how.
1) Download Pidgin, an XMPP client, and install it.
2) Once you install it, open it up and go to the "Accounts" tab, and then "Manage". After you're on manage, select "Add" and this is where we will make our account.
3) For your protocol, select "XMPP". For username, select whatever you want. Sometimes, you can get an OG name if it isn't taken on the server you're using. For domain, you can use some of the domains I list below. (Your domain will be after your name. Example: [email protected]) Set up your password that you'd like and remember to tick the boxes that say "Remember password" and "Create this new account on the server" before pressing "Add".

To encrypt your chats and make sure you have no logs, download OTR. It's a plugin for XMPP.
Get OTR here!
Once you install it, go to the "Options" tab, then "Plugins", and finally, check this box -


See.ph (Located in Ukraine)
Creep.im (Located in Moscow, Russian Federation)
Wtfismyip.com (United States IPv6 Ready)
Jabber.co.nz (Representing the Jabber community in New Zealand)
Jabber.se (Sweden IPv6 Ready)
Exploit.im (This domain is rooted so I wouldn't trust it but I'm still listing it just in case you want it anyways)

List of VPNs
I suggest getting a paid VPN as they're safer than a free one.
If you don't know what a VPN is, I'll explain it. It is a way to hide your real IP address online from hackers, DDoSers, doxers, etc. I suggest using one at ALL times. It is much better than a proxy because the VPN is used for everything instead of just your browser. So for example, if 127.0.0.1 was your IP and you lived in California, a VPN would spoof your IP to something like 128.104.19.10 and it'd change your location to somewhere other than your home location.

Preventing DNS Leaks On VPN
You do not want to experience a DNS leak, you need to fix this while on a VPN. When using an anonymity or privacy service, it is extremely important that all traffic originating from your computer is routed through the anonymity network. If any traffic leaks outside of the secure connection to the network, any adversary monitoring your traffic will be able to log your activity. Basically, you're using a VPN for no reason if you have a DNS leak. If you have a DNS leak, you'll need to fix this so you can keep your privacy. First, you want to test to see if your DNS is leaking or not by going here. If your DNS isn't leaking, then you can skip this part of the tutorial but if it is, then continue reading because you'll need it.

The solution is to ensure that once connected to the anonymity network, you are using ONLY the DNS server/s provided by the anonymity service. As this problem affects predominantly windows clients, only solutions for Windows appear here.

Solution A - Automatic
If you are using OpenVPN on Windows then a fully automated solution is available. Download dnsfixsetup.exe. After installation, when you connect to a VPN server, a batch file will be run executing the 3 steps above. Three scripts are generated for each OpenVPN configuration file;
configfilename_pre.bat - executed when you initiate the connection but before the connection is established - Calls pre.vbs - If any active DHCP adapters exist, switch to static
configfilename_up.bat - executed when the connection is established - Calls up.vbs - Clear the DNS servers for all active adapter except the TAP32 adapter
configfilename_down.bat - executed after the connection is disconnected - Calls down.vbs - Reconfigure adapters back to their original configuration
Click here if you want to find the manual way of fixing a DNS leak. The automatic way should work but you can do it manually. If you're on Linux, check out [TUT] Fix Linux DNS Leaks by Sliph.

Fake Doxes
Releasing fake doxes on yourself can be very beneficial, whether you think they are or not. (I suggest reading A Swift Death before completing this one as you'll need you a fake identity to use in your fake dox) When someone is doxing you, they rely on sites with your information (unless they ISP dox you or use other methods of SE), so they might go off other leads. Nobody wants to dox someone that has already been doxed so they'll follow your fake dox and get more information that hasn't already been found. For example, if you have included lots of information on your fake dox and you didn't put a fake SSN on it, the target will use the fake information to find your SSN, which will be fake because you've provided them a fake dox. If I'm not clear, imagine this scenario. You're Tom and the doxer is Craig. Craig wants to find your full dox and "drop" you. Craig finds your dox on Pastebin, but remember, it's the fake dox YOU posted. He thinks "oh this is a dox on him already let me use it to find more information" and he includes it in his dox. Now his dox is already inaccurate so you're good. He'll use that fake information to find a fake SSN. This is why posting fake doxes can be beneficial. There are several places to place fake doxes, I'll include public and known places. If you wish, you can post it on shit like d***i* or f**.*t if you'd like. (Yes, I blocked out the site names to protect the doxes of some HF members. You can use them if you know them.)

Getting a Good Firewall
I won't make up a huge introduction on this one but I'll copy/paste what a Firewall does from this thread. First what exactly is a firewall? A firewall is not necessarily a wall as you might imagine. It can be hardware, or software. They are designed to allow outgoing and some incoming packets on ports. Firewalls block packets that aren't supposed to be allowed through on certain ports according to the users settings. They also analyze these packets, look for potential Trojans and viruses and basically make your network feel like a home. Let's take a look at some useful firewalls that can help us out a lot.

Getting a Good Antivirus
There are a lot of antivirus programs out there so you'll have many to chose that suit your preferences. These will protect your computer from viruses like those pesky RATs out there. Sometimes, a virus can slip past your AV so you'll need to always be ready for step 3 of this tutorial in case you think that a file could be infected but your AV doesn't pick it up. (Note: some viruses can be FUD, fully undetectable, so you'll have to be smart about what you open. For example, opening a "Free Minecraft Account Generator 2014 Working" from Youtube or Pastebin will most likely be a virus and could be FUD, so don't be stupid.) Anyways, let's go on to the list of antivirus.

Protecting Your Keystrokes
Okay, so maybe you've accidentally downloaded a keylogger because it was FUD, this will come in handy. If you sign into your Paypal account with the following information - Username: [email protected] | Password: ginomarley420 - it'll show up as something else like - Username: 23j0sjfads$fsd.230 | Password: 2093hnafsdfa)@/ - so this will definitely come in handy. There are a few out there so chose whatever you like. I, personally, love Keyscrambler as it's fast to set up and pretty decent but you can chose whatever you like the most.

Chatting Securely
We all know that when you chat with Skype, logs are kept, so that could be a problem for some. This step will help you protect your chat with someone or even a group! You can combine ChatCrypt with PrivNote if you'd like (sending the PrivNote link inside the ChatCrypt room so it's no proof that it was you sending it). I wouldn't suggest this over XMPP but it's up to you. If you'd like to learn more about XMPP, then check my first thread to learn how to use it.

So what we need to do is go to ChatCrypt (link below) and once we're in it, we need to make a room. Follow the steps below to make a room -

1) For the "Room" option, type the name of the room you want to host. (I suggest something random to prevent others from joinining like "VelcroShirtFan1029" or whatever)
2) For the "Username" option, put whatever you want your alias to be in the room. (I suggest a random alias like "......")
3) For the "Password" option, type the password you want for your room, make sure you remember it so you can give it to the people you want to join. (I suggest making the password complex like Dun23a823nsoISIA so nobody can crack it)

Once you're in the room, give your friend the room name and password so they can chat with you. ChatCrypt provides AES-256 CTR encryption on all messages meaning only the people in the room can read the actual messages.

Another way to send messages privately is PrivNote. This is kind of like Pastebin, except the notes you send self-destruct after one person clicks the link. This means that you cannot read your own message after generating the link or it'll self-destruct, meaning the other person can't see it when you send them the link. Using PrivNote is very easy, all you do is go to the website (link below).
1) Once you're there, write your note in the box.
2) Once you have wrote the note in the box, select "Create Note" and you'll get a link.
3) Copy that link and send it to your friend. Once they open it, it'll self-destruct, meaning nobody else can view it. (If someone tries to take a screenshot of what you send them, just say they're using Inspect Element to fake the text. ;) Nobody will ever find the original note since people can use Inspect Element)

A Swift Death
Trying to sign up to a site and don't want to use any of your personal information? This step will be very helpful for you then. Below, I'll mention a few sites regarding a quick identity that you can kill off once you're finished. Once you finish with your site that you input information on, you can leave the identity alone forever, almost like it never existed. Anyways, let's get to the links.

FakeNameGenerator
This site will give you a fake identity that you can use when signing up to a site. If you want a certain gender, then click the box that says "Gender" and change it to what you'd like. If you want a certain Country, then click the box that says "Country" and change it to what you'd like. If you want a certain name set, then click the box that says "Name set" and change it to what you'd like. If you'd like a certain age, gender percentage (like 80% male, 20% female or whatever), then click on "Advanced Options" and you'll be able to set more things to whatever you'd like. This site provides you with the following information -

1. A full name
2. An address
3. A city, state, and zip code
4. A phone number (not real so don't try to use it for verification or whatever)
5. A email (don't use this, I'll cover how to get quick emails in a bit)
6. A username
7. A password
8. A maiden name for your mother
9. A birthday
10. A MasterCard (not real so don't try to use it for verification or whatever) with an expiration date and a CVC2 number.
11. A SSN
12. A favorite color
13. An occupation
14. A company
Much more.

10MinuteMail
This is the best site for disposable emails in my honest opinion. All you do is go to the website and it'll give you an email to use. This email doesn't cover up your email or anything, it's an actual email and when you click "give me 10 more minutes", your time will be reset to 10 minutes and any messages sent to your disposable email will be received, I'd recommend this to anyone who'd need a disposable email.
An example of one of the emails they provide is "[email protected]", all of their emails end with "trbvm.com" if I'm not mistaken. This website is great for verification on a site that you don't want to use your regular email with.

TextEm
This is a site for free text messaging in case you don't want to use your own phone. This could be used for pranks or to just scare some idiot shitless by texting him "We're watching your every move..." so this could come in handy.

Text4Free
This is a site for free text messaging in case you don't want to use your own phone. This could be used for pranks or to just scare some idiot shitless by texting him "We're watching your every move..." so this could come in handy.

AnonyMailer
This is a site for free emailing in case you don't want to use your own email. This could be used for pranks or to just scare some idiot shitless by emailing him "We're watching your every move..." so this could come in handy. (Tip: This isn't used for receiving emails, only sending.)

AnonEmail
This is a site for free emailing in case you don't want to use your own email. This could be used for pranks or to just scare some idiot shitless by emailing him "We're watching your every move..." so this could come in handy. (Tip: This isn't used for receiving emails, only sending.)

Proxy Sites
These are some sites to use to visit sites behind a proxy IP address in case you can't afford a VPN at the moment and don't want to use a free one. I'm not entirely sure if these keep logs or not so it's up to you to find out if you're doing anything that you don't want other people to see. If you're not sure what a proxy can do, it hides your IP by replacing it with a different one on a website. For example, if my IP was "127.0.0.1", it'd change it to something like "420.69.300.150" so I couldn't be DDoSed or doxed. Anyways, let's go to the list of sites.

HideMyAss
I'm pretty sure HMA keeps logs so keep that in mind.

Using Bitcoin For Private/Safe Deals
Alright, so this was suggested by someone in the posts and I'm surprised I forgot this. Bitcoin, also known as BTC, is a cryptocurrency that doesn't give away your private information like PayPal does. If someone sends you BTC, your name nor your address or other information is exposed. It's simple, you receive your money, no need for shipping addresses or anything. Paying and buying with BTC is very simple and is much safer. Another benefit is that you don't have to worry about chargebacks. Once someone sends you money on BTC, they can't make up some bullshit like "oh, my btc account was h4xed pls help me", you'll keep your money. People use BTC for private deals all the time. It's a lot harder to trace BTC than it is to trace PayPal since you don't have to include any private information, not even your email! You can have an account with no information on it at all and still use BTC. Be sure to use a new address for every site, you don't want your new account to be linked to your old account, do you? It'll easily give up your information.

Bitcoin Site I Use To Buy/Sell (Best One In My Opinion)
Official BTC Site To Get Started
Currency Exchange Section To Exchange For BTC

Very very nice now you should have added watchdog so that if someone hits down your vpn they dont see your real ip they see a proxy or it kicks you offline

Never heard about that, thanks for alerting me on it. I'll throw it in the second part once I get around to making it.

I'm a total noob when it comes to internet privacy and protecting against hacking.
These kind of tutorials are very much appreciated and I'm looking forward to part 2!

Very nice tutorial,I'm sure if will help a lot of members (including myself)! 🤝

I like most parts of this. But some things that I would like to add are:

1. Add-ons are not to be 100% trusted. That is why many people use TOR. Minimizing the amount of different programs/add-ons that you use is always the best option. No need to get too complicated.

2. Chaining a proxy with a VPN (using a proxy and VPN at the same time) doesn't really do much for you. It'll just make your connection slower. Plus, you don't need firefox to do this.

3. I'm really glad that you are talking about a skype alternative. Too many people do not know about this.

Well put together thread. I can tell lots of effort and thought went into this, but there is always room for improvement 😝

I know you don't need Firefox to do it but it's better to throw it in there in case someone doesn't know it and they have Firefox. Also, I thought there were bad nodes by hackers, feds, etc. on TOR? Doesn't that make it unsafe?

Thanks for the tips. 🤝

If you really want to be safe, don't use the internet 😝

The way that TOR works is that the connection is basically encrypted an decrypted multiple times by different machines all over the world, meaning that it is very difficult to get a hold of the unencrypted connection. But yes, technically, a fed COULD just rent out a server, and wait and wait and wait for themselves to get a lucky break to catch the unencrypted connection. But the chances of that are very low.

You can actually read up about how TOR really works. Most people just assume that it's a really slow VPN, but that is definitely not the case.

Seriously, I recommend TOR to users seeking anonymity, but as long as you don't have your own servers, providing yourself your own internet connection, you are not necessarily safe.

Your methods will definitely suit the purposes of 99% of the people on these forums, so it's all good. If you're doing something super serious that will actually involve the feds coming after your ass, I would stay off of both TOR and firefox altogether. Hell, sitting outside someone's house using their free wifi, while wearing a hoodie and shades works well enough (provided that you spoof your mac address, and pick an area without cameras). Don't hack from home. First rule.

Lol, I saw your signature in the anime lounge and was like "why not just throw this in there for the skidding skids that like to skid while they skid?" 😁
If you'd like, I'll remove it.

I don't even have registrations open LOL.
I'll open them.
EDIT: Done, feel free to use it.
