The only channel I've ever recommended to others about their online security is yours. Because you've earned it. And I thank you for that.

Great explanation I've tried VPN and Tor at the same time and my download speeds using torrents was 20% of bandwidth. With a VPN only (fastest server) I got 75% bandwidth. Without any protection I got 60%
@@AllThingsSecured I know some of the vpn providers optimize servers for torrent traffic, while not using a vpn your speed can be throttled by the isp when downloading torrents.
I just found your channel! I've been asking myself so many of these quotations about how secure or private are these services. Thank you so much for making these videos!!!
I just found your channel via this video. Very educational on Tor & VPN strengths & weaknesses. When you pointed out that ppl handling their keys to commercial VPNs, it confirmed my suspicion on why I didn’t get a VPN yet & I’m gonna use the Tor/VPN solution that you suggested since I just downloaded Tor today.
@@jim-7965 If you run a VM and connect to a VPN and Tor inside it, even if someone manages to find your data it belongs to the VM and not your actual device. To put it simply, think of a VM like a garbage bag: even if you fill it with garbage, your home stays clean. After it's full, you just replace it with a new bag. Thats basically how a VM can act for your device. Basically it creates a virtual computer that runs through an app instead of hardware. If you configure a VM properly on a network level, you can avoid getting your device fingerprinted (ID'd) since the VM will get fingerprinted instead your host device. Any system data collected is isolated from your physical device and belongs to the VM, which you can restart (Just like any garbage you collect is seperate from your home and belongs in the garbage bag, which you can just replace). That's also how VMs protect you from malware. Any malware downloaded will only affect the VM and not your actual device. So if you're worried about suspicious files just use a VM to test first.
Another good alternative is TAILS, which is used on a Flash drive and boots up on your computer - nothing is on your computer, and everything is on your Flash drive or external HDD if you want. It comes with TOR, THUNDERBIRD, an OFFICE to use, Keypass, and a few other items. It is free and not difficult to install on a flash drive. A good video explaining the differences between VPN and TOR and when they should be used.
@@machoprotegido5607 I don't know, I know that TOR works on Redmi - an Android - Haven't tried it on my iPhone but I believe TOR would work. Not sure about the OS though.
Very professionally made video, clear and concise, and looks like you spent some time editing this. I learned something, since I use express vpn, but not a tor router.
Excellent presenter. Content and delivery are spot on. Production quality is not the most sophisticated... but the content and the strength of the presenter steal the show. Liked. Subscribed.
I mainly use a VPN to securely connect to my home network from the outside to access my NAS, website, domotics/IoT, printer, etc. Similarly also use a VPN for accessing any websites securely while on a public Wifi. I would add that to the advantages of a VPN, although "normal" usage of a VPN would be from your home to a defined "outside" securely for indicated reasons as in the video. Tor usage maybe nice for safe but slow browsing from home. using Tor over VPN is interesting for sure. DVPN: I will look into this one. Thanks for the clear explanation and distinction of it all.
Very complete and correct information, hope it helps clarifying false claims. Also... uh... never thought of routing TOR through a VPN but the video has a point there. As for TOR, it's prolly invincible, for most if not all practical purposes, tracking it is just beyond difficult.
We sell a VPN service to individuals (and offices), but the key advantage of our service besides encryption is that it places the user behind a next-generation firewall. That can be our data center or in their own home (permitting them to appear to be using the Internet from their home even when traveling). This provides essential protection from many forms of hacking and malware.
Your video is presented so well for someone like me that has nothing to hide but needs geo axsess to tv viewing but the way you explain it makes me want to learn more and to learn from advancing technology thanks for this so easy to understand and learn from
Another good video, brief and to the point. Well explained without amateur dramatics or childish cartoons. I am a recent subscriber to your channel based on your simplistic approach to the topic. I like the explanation for TOR and the good supposition as to who owns/pays for the data throughput on it's servers and exit nodes. Thank you.
4:47 There is a third option, in being to be able to use it as part of a server-client configuration to force a specific routing. Since the infrastructure is run on AS and BGP (paraphrased) your ISP throws your traffic a certain way and from there it gets taken over by the nodes owned by the company who set it up, which in turn they (aka the localized network) decides which way your traffic should go to reach a cetain destination. And sometimes that "order of last resort" method is resulting in a less than optimal path, causing higher packet loss and latency.
VPN might actually also help on ISP spying. They (ISP) can't see the content of a secure page but they sure can see the URLs of the pages that you visit and also the protocols that you are using. Plus they (all of them) have direct access and monitoring on your local network through the pre-compromised backdoor (aka service) accounts that are invisible and preinstalled on you free ISP router. That alone is a good reason for VPN usage and that is what most of people mean when they are talking about VPN privacy.
@@ORION-ir5dx I agree about ISP: They can see anything trough the router. Some time ago, i put some "barriers" to minimize the exposition: Firewall (physical) between the router and my network. Also, behind of firewall, i put an enterprise grade core switch with VLANS and multiple network segments. Nothing is 100% secure but its better than nothing :)
They can't see protocol for sure beyond IP which is fundamental for routing. UDP and TCP packets could be identified but ports are used, and protocol is not guaranteed. Sure some simple heuristics are right 99% of the time, but these generic protocols can be used however you program them to.
Josh, thanks for another great video-- really enjoying your channel and the privacy tech you discuss. I wonder if you're aware of any tools that help protect against browser fingerprinting? If so, any chance we could see a video on this? After all, any other methods of privacy are a whole lot less effective if your browser is screaming out "Hey- this is who I am!" Thanks again
Trying to use TOR to access any sites in Japan is phenomenally difficult - out of 30-40 attempts to login to Pixiv art community I accessed it twice after endless rounds of Captcha verifications....very, very frustrating....been using Express vpn for about 6 months and I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
I think if you're running an exit node, it should always be on top of a VPN connection. Exit nodes are often targets, you don't want to advertise your real IP.
@@AllThingsSecured There's not that much to worry about. If you're on a VPN to start with, you won't be getting all sorts of letters from your ISP. And if you do get an attack, it's mostly DDoS types, which switching VPN server sort of solves. If no one ran exit nodes, the network wouldn't work.
why does my GOOGLE browsernot allow access to a particular ITV HUB show series (Coronation Street) , while allowing access to others when using EXPRESSVPN or NORDVPN when conncted to a UK server from France?
I mostly use TOR to get access to various sites which are normally blocked. For example z library. I want to use vpn and see how it works. Can you suggest some good vpn services?
I agree with you on your points and technical remarks; it must be said is much easier to access your data from your provider, than ask them to a vpn service located in a different country, so it’s an additional strong bureaucratic barrier.
"I'm not talking about illegal activity" - proceeds to describe illegal activities in lots of countries around the world. Let's face it, we are all criminals in some part of the world and our daily activities would get severely punished by some authoritarian regime. And it's not like our democracies can't become authoritarian - just look at what's going on these days with individual freedom and how much information our governments want to know for the least justified reasons. We all need privacy and we shouldn't have to justify it.
It protects your data from anybody trying to snoop through the WiFi, but again, you’re now putting your trust in the VPN company instead. It’s a trade off.
Hi Josh....love your amazing videos. Question, I downloaded Tor a couple of weeks ago, didn't use it yet till I know what I'm doing. Yesterday I was cleaning old photos - images I have in my Mac documents, and I found inside of one of my wife's real Estate folders, a lot of hidden Tor stuff. This never happend before, and I got nervous and deleted Tor. I also found the regular Tor foulder in the applications folder, which is normal. Any advice on this subject, will be appreciated. Thanks
@@AllThingsSecured I had a bad computer, so that added to it. But trying Tor today, it seems everything I search on it comes back at a potential security risk and refuses to let me advance.
I use a VPN to avoid streaming caps by my mobile data provider. They cap my streaming speeds at 480P even though I have unlimited data but the second I turn on my VPN I can stream 4K if I really wanted it but I normally stream with 1080P.
yesss. when I try to watch youtube on my phone with mobile data videos buffer forever even in 144p. as soon as I turn on a VPN I can watch 4k without any buffering
Yes, very similar. At its core, Brave is mostly about blocking ads and tracking, but when you use the private window with Tor, it’s using the same Tor network that the Tor browser does.
Not exactly. Tor Browser is made to make it harder to fingerprint you, and has things that could leak your IP address removed. If you want anonymity, you should use it.
Thanks for the video. I live in China and just want to browse the web, Facebook , WhatsApp etc. The problem is with VPN is is that they are targeted by the censorship authorities. No matter what these companies claim they don't often work especially on windows . I've tried all the big ones over the last ten years. It's blatantly miss selling and everytime you contact customer service that just say the VPN "temporarily" is not working in China. Nord VPN and Express VPN have been down for near 6 months now. I'm using Android and a 3rd VPN to post this comment but I really need to use windows in my daily job and access Google servers
hi i need help on vpns as my country blocked them and now I can't assess twitter or most of my social accounts I need a way to bypass the cencorship and enjoy my social apps is tor good for it like I have no interest in dark web and in fact it scares me so what should I do your help will mean a lot.
Thank you for the easy to understand explanation! I will follow for more! I do have a question (sorry for the long question)...Let's say Im working remotely for a big bank. They provide me with a company laptop, VPN and a Yubikey (which allows access to their system each day). Per their policy I'm NOT allowed to log into there network if I'm outside of the US but I need to travel outside of US at some point. Their VPN DOES support the country I'm traveling to but regardless of that I'm "not allowed" to. I obviously can't install any personal VPN to their computer (and it already had the company VPN installed) BUT I can purchase a router from Express VPN (for example) and connect to it as if it were WIFI without an issue. Now I'd be using double VPN to maintain my location private. I know my speed would probably be impacted
Would I have any issues? Are there any risks of them finding out that I am in fact outside of US. Do you have any recommendation or suggestions? I know that banks have better security and can probably bypass certain things but I am unsure. I don't want to lose my job! Thank you in advance! Keep the videos coming!

Also, behind of firewall, i put an enterprise grade core switch with VLANS and multiple network segments. Nothing is 100% secure but its better than nothing :)
The question is if DNS goes through the VPN or not. If it does, its encrypted and the ISP cannot see it. Otherwise you must find a way to secure DNS.
They can't see protocol for sure beyond IP which is fundamental for routing. UDP and TCP packets could be identified but ports are used, and protocol is not guaranteed. Sure some simple heuristics are right 99% of the time, but these generic protocols can be used however you program them to.
WOW! This was expertly presented. You have a new subscriber!
Thanks, Elijah!
which one puts you in easier warzone lobbies?
dude! specify you are talking about the video game warzone! hehehe
Thanks for such a lucid explaination! Subscribing your channel man
Thank you!
Great Explanation, this really helped me to understand better between VPN and TOR
Josh, thanks for another great video-- really enjoying your channel and the privacy tech you discuss. I wonder if you're aware of any tools that help protect against browser fingerprinting? If so, any chance we could see a video on this? After all, any other methods of privacy are a whole lot less effective if your browser is screaming out "Hey- this is who I am!" Thanks again
Great suggestion, Joe! I’ll add it to the list.
Thoughtfully composed narration. Well done.
Thanks 🙏
That analogy and simple explanation was amazingly well said for someone kind of slow like me
Glad to hear it, Adrian!
Thanks dude this really helped me a lot I did the steps that's you did thanks man!
ah that was very helpful, simple, and informative. Subbed & Thanks
Thanks for the sub!
Trying to use TOR to access any sites in Japan is phenomenally difficult - out of 30-40 attempts to login to Pixiv art community I accessed it twice after endless rounds of Captcha verifications....very, very frustrating....been using Express vpn for about 6 months and I'd give it a 10 out of 10.
I think if you're running an exit node, it should always be on top of a VPN connection. Exit nodes are often targets, you don't want to advertise your real IP.
You have to really know what you’re doing to be a Tor exit node.
@@AllThingsSecured There's not that much to worry about. If you're on a VPN to start with, you won't be getting all sorts of letters from your ISP. And if you do get an attack, it's mostly DDoS types, which switching VPN server sort of solves.
If no one ran exit nodes, the network wouldn't work.
Nice tutorial Micheal, great video to get us started. May you tell - how do I link two or more channels (in the rack channel) as to share the sa
Very informative, nice contents explain both in a way that a newbie also understands it.
why does my GOOGLE browsernot allow access to a particular ITV HUB show series (Coronation Street) , while allowing access to others when using EXPRESSVPN or NORDVPN when conncted to a UK server from France?
I mostly use TOR to get access to various sites which are normally blocked. For example z library. I want to use vpn and see how it works. Can you suggest some good vpn services?
Amazing content as always
Glad you enjoyed it!
can you explain further and provide an example for when you said "if your data presents a danger to you tor is your best option"?
I just tried tracert command with ProtonVPN and I could see the difference with VPN enabled and off. How does it look with Tor ?
U gotta make it look so easy, thx bro!
I agree with you on your points and technical remarks; it must be said is much easier to access your data from your provider, than ask them to a vpn service located in a different country, so it’s an additional strong bureaucratic barrier.
Very nice explanation. Thanks
Thanks, Rafal!
"I'm not talking about illegal activity" - proceeds to describe illegal activities in lots of countries around the world.
Let's face it, we are all criminals in some part of the world and our daily activities would get severely punished by some authoritarian regime. And it's not like our democracies can't become authoritarian - just look at what's going on these days with individual freedom and how much information our governments want to know for the least justified reasons. We all need privacy and we shouldn't have to justify it.
Your videos are very top-quality stuff. thanks.
Thanks 🙏
Thx .Nice easy beginners guide. helped plenty!
I learned something new again. Thanks
Glad to hear it! You’re welcome 😎
@drew_hacks01 on Telegram helped me with good and strong VPN thanks for your time
What if I use Tor browser with my VPN and then go to a proxy website?
Better off using Tor by itself
If I use WiFi can the things I search up be looked at by the admin of the internet like your parent’s or someone else
I think they can only know what webs you're visiting.
But the real question is :
Can they still know after using a VPN or a ToR?
What if i first reconfigure my DNS server, download a VPN and get the TOR browser?
Very informative. Thanks.
Question: Do you think using a VPN suffice to encrypt data and hide what you are doing on your pc/smartphone when using Public WIFI?
It protects your data from anybody trying to snoop through the WiFi, but again, you’re now putting your trust in the VPN company instead. It’s a trade off.
@@AllThingsSecured what if I set up a vpn server in my home?
TNice tutorials video really helped! Thank you ❤
Hi Josh....love your amazing videos. Question, I downloaded Tor a couple of weeks ago, didn't use it yet till I know what I'm doing. Yesterday I was cleaning old photos - images I have in my Mac documents, and I found inside of one of my wife's real Estate folders, a lot of hidden Tor stuff. This never happend before, and I got nervous and deleted Tor. I also found the regular Tor foulder in the applications folder, which is normal. Any advice on this subject, will be appreciated. Thanks
Thanks Rudy. Honestly, I don’t have any idea why you would have Tor files there. I assume you just downloaded the Tor browser, correct?
@@AllThingsSecured Yes Sir...only the browser. Do you trust Tor?? maybe I downloaded it from the wrong web, who knows..thanks anyway.
Great video thanks for the info 👍🏻👍🏻
No problem 👍
helped so so much this is a greatly put together video
Glad to hear it.
👍👍👍Thank you, learnt something new today. 🙂
My pleasure, Bob!
I had wondered why I did stop using Tor, until you said that it was slow. Oh boy, I remember now.
Oh yea, very slow.
@@AllThingsSecured I had a bad computer, so that added to it. But trying Tor today, it seems everything I search on it comes back at a potential security risk and refuses to let me advance.
I use a VPN to avoid streaming caps by my mobile data provider. They cap my streaming speeds at 480P even though I have unlimited data but the second I turn on my VPN I can stream 4K if I really wanted it but I normally stream with 1080P.
yesss. when I try to watch youtube on my phone with mobile data videos buffer forever even in 144p. as soon as I turn on a VPN I can watch 4k without any buffering
Informative. Thanks for sharing.
Tor browser & the private window with tor included in the brave browser, are they similar?
Yes, very similar. At its core, Brave is mostly about blocking ads and tracking, but when you use the private window with Tor, it’s using the same Tor network that the Tor browser does.
@@AllThingsSecured Thanks for the info.
My pleasure, Sai! Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍🏻
Not exactly. Tor Browser is made to make it harder to fingerprint you, and has things that could leak your IP address removed. If you want anonymity, you should use it.
@@eds7406 exactly. Using the tor feature in brave isn’t very practical because the original tor browser makes it harder to fingerprint you
I can’t drag content / sample into my playlist on Mac? Anyone know how to fix
Lovely video! Thank you very much!
Thank you for detailed information.
My pleasure, Ake!
Thanks for the info, I found it very helpful.
so if all I want to do is not have my location revealed when I can someone over the internet.. VPN?
Location via IP address? Yes. Location via GPS? No.
I can't thank you enough... hands down the best video for beginnners
Can you connect laptop to laptop and go through my phone and use my hotspot for internet?
how do you add a sample in that you have on your mac already
what about clouds e.g aws, are they provide 100 anonymity? or like vpn they store my data and can be selling it?
Thanks for the video. I live in China and just want to browse the web, Facebook , WhatsApp etc. The problem is with VPN is is that they are targeted by the censorship authorities. No matter what these companies claim they don't often work especially on windows . I've tried all the big ones over the last ten years.
It's blatantly miss selling and everytime you contact customer service that just say the VPN "temporarily" is not working in China. Nord VPN and Express VPN have been down for near 6 months now.
I'm using Android and a 3rd VPN to post this comment but I really need to use windows in my daily job and access Google servers
Yea, China has always cracked down on VPNs and made it hard. Have you ever tried Shadowsocks?
@@AllThingsSecured no, i haven't . Will have a look. Thanks
shadowsocks之类直接上路由器或者软路由，或者clash，surge用电脑或者安卓手机。VPN早就不靠谱了
Guys is "Onion over VPN" just if u activate a bridge in the Tor browser before u connect to it?? or is that another thing entirely
hi i need help on vpns as my country blocked them and now I can't assess twitter or most of my social accounts I need a way to bypass the cencorship and enjoy my social apps is tor good for it like I have no interest in dark web and in fact it scares me so what should I do your help will mean a lot.
Thank you for the easy to understand explanation! I will follow for more! I do have a question (sorry for the long question)...Let's say Im working remotely for a big bank. They provide me with a company laptop, VPN and a Yubikey (which allows access to their system each day). Per their policy I'm NOT allowed to log into there network if I'm outside of the US but I need to travel outside of US at some point. Their VPN DOES support the country I'm traveling to but regardless of that I'm "not allowed" to. I obviously can't install any personal VPN to their computer (and it already had the company VPN installed) BUT I can purchase a router from Express VPN (for example) and connect to it as if it were WIFI without an issue. Now I'd be using double VPN to maintain my location private. I know my speed would probably be impacted
Would I have any issues? Are there any risks of them finding out that I am in fact outside of US. Do you have any recommendation or suggestions? I know that banks have better security and can probably bypass certain things but I am unsure. I don't want to lose my job! Thank you in advance! Keep the videos coming!
Did you get fired yet?
Mysterium 👍
I’ve been enjoying their service! What do you like about it?
Have been using mysterium also
thanks for the info. retired and can't afford cell phone internet. what are your thoughts?😕
Thanks "All things secured" for the explaining. This subjects generally are confused.
