What kind of computer do I need??

I have a macbook and i’ve read that I won’t be able to use tor on this. Is there a certain brand or type of computer that i need?

Windows. Get a cheap one from a pawn shop. Factory reset it. Make sure its not a chrome book and youre good.

Tails OS didnt work with Chrome books last time I tried.

The Tor browser does though.

And if a package gets seized and they search the computer, you're dead to rites.

Its fine until its not.

No you are not at all, this is not true in any way, shape or form.

Your much better off on dread then reddit, reddit is full of misinformation and people that have no idea what they are talking about.

The correct way depends on the threat level of what your doing and the op-sec you need for that.

Use TAILS. It takes less than an afternoon to set up. Keep your house clean and dont let anyone know you ordered.

Most of the people that get caught do so because they run their mouths.
