At first glance I thought this was “How The Onion Works”

7:00 "If there was ever a situation where a group of bad actors controlled all three nodes in a Tor communication" KAX17 has entered the chat

[pakonicoco]

Youtube automatically unsubed from your channel bro. Keep up w the good work!

[awabqureshi]

The real question is how do get such clear audio?

[elguero]

Watching this video on TOR feels like trying to explain a magic trick to a magician!

Tor was the most useful tool that I could browse Japanese porn website safely, which banned the IP address of where I'm living.

[tubbalcain]

Great explaination, you know your stuff.

One question: how do you prevent being exposed, while negotiating/ creating the keys with the relay nodes?

[av]

thank you for the easy to understand presentation

[Sugbaable]

idk exactly much about this, but what about server side javascript? Would that be safe?

[bioemiliano]

This video is not as popular as the other ones you have... does YouTube censor Tor related content?

@7:00
"...if there were ever a situation where a group of bad actors controlled all three nodes..."
I thought that Tor nodes are designed to detect when their counterparts have been compromised, and such compromised nodes are flagged to be taken out of the available pool of nodes?

When the Tor browser starts, and chooses an entry guard, does your Tor browser perform some type of check to ensure that the connection to the guard has not been comprimised?

Does the Tor browser or other Tor nodes check for modified code on other nodes before trusting the other node?

Even if one person controlled all three of the nodes you happen to be using, everything is encrypted.
And each node is getting data from multiple sources. So how would they see what you are doing?

How does the middle relay and exit relay get their keys?

[Fredministrator]

This might be a stupid question, but is it okay to use Tor for things like yt videos (without an active account) and such things or is it just a huge waste of traffic for the servers?

[rickybhattacharya]

When the onion website server responds to the request sent by the client, does the response traverse via same relays or different?

[sub-harmonik]

How would the tor browser send the server the user's IP using javascript? I've been trying to look it up and it seems like that isn't possible. Couldn't the tor browser just unset the relevant http headers?

[JeffBourke]

Okay so there is an attack based on packet size BUT couldn’t that be defended by padding with a random amount of redundant data?

[thebackofdoctormanhattanshead]

How does the reply from the destination server correctly reach the client? As in, how do the relays know the route back to the client from the destination, given the exit and middle relays know nothing of the clients IP?

[ArtOfHealth]

I have not gotten the process of stripping some machines down and installing a Linux based system. Microsoft owns a lot of my stuff. Google has lots and lots of my stuff on their servers. Apple too! I know all three of these system pretty well. Ever since the nineties anyway. TOR has limitations. It even denied that certain websites I visit existed. How do you live your life on the internet? What machines and Operating Systems and Browsers do you use frequently? Thank you!

[Gigachad-mcqz]

This is confusing to me. How do you get the keys to decrypt all 3 layers? And if you generate the key locally how do you send it to the relays without anyone finding out what the key is? Unless you decrypt the key too but then you have another key that needs to be encrypted going to infinity

[vocaloidsrock]

Use full disk encryption on your computer's operating system (OS) just to be extremely safe, if you happen to use Tor.
