Part 0 – Introduction

  • Tor is completely operatable in Mac OS, Windows, and Linux. It is a widely used dark web browser to hide the user’s activities and protect you from ISP and bad actors to monitor your activities.
  • Dec 25, 2020 Darknet: It is part of the Deep web that basically includes all the confidential or hidden websites which are encrypted over the network so as to maintain the anonymity of the user who is accessing that particular website. When using darknet, it is nearly impossible for someone to track down who is using it or accessing any website.

Here’s my basic guide for PGP on OS X. The OS in question is OS X 10.9 Mavericks, but it should still work for other versions. As for the tool itself, we’ll be using GPG Suite Beta 5. This is my first time using OS X in… years. If you see anything I’m doing wrong, or could be done easier, feel free to correct me in the comments.

If you’ve done your research, you’ll see it’s not recommended to do anything darknet related on OS X, but I’m not going to go over the details here. You’ve obviously made your decision.

Part 1 – Installing the software

Darknet Tor free download - Tor Browser Bundle, tor and darknet, Tor Browser Bundle Beta for Linux (32-bit), and many more programs.

Like I said above, we’ll be using GPG Suite Beta 5. If you’re curious and want to see the source code, you can do so here.

Darknet browser mac free
  1. Head on over to https://gpgtools.org, and download ‘GPG Suite Beta 5′
  2. Open the file you downloaded, you should see this screen. Double click on ‘Install’
  3. Follow the installation process. If successful, you should see this screen. You can now close the window

Part 2 – Creating your keypair

GPG Suite actually makes this a super simple process. Just like the Linux guide, we’ll be using 4096 bit length for encryption.

  1. Open up GPG Keychain, you should be greeted by this beautiful window
  2. Click ‘New’ at the top left of the window
  3. You should see a small popup. Click the arrow beside ‘Advanced options’, make sure the key length is 4096. For our purposes, we’ll uncheck ‘key expires’. Put your username where it says ‘full name’, fill out what you want for email, and create a secure passphrase. Check the picture for an example on how to fill it out. When complete, click ‘Generate key’
  4. GPG Keychain will begin generating your key. Move the mouse around, mash keys in a text editor, have something downloading. Do random stuff to create entropy for a secure key.
  5. annndddddd we’re done!

Part 3 – Setting up the environment

This is where OS X differs from other platforms. The suite itself doesn’t provide a window to encrypt/decrypt messages, so we need to enable some options.

  1. Go into system preferences, open up ‘Keyboard’
  2. You should see this window. Click the ‘Keyboard Shortcuts’ tab at the top, then ‘Services’ in the left pane. Scroll down in the right pane to the subsection labeled ‘Text’, and to the OpenPGP options. Here you can create keyboard shortcuts. We’ll uncheck everything OpenPGP that’s under ‘Text’, and delete their shortcuts. Now we’ll enable ‘Decrypt’, ‘Encrypt’, and ‘Import key’. Create keyboard shortcuts for these if you wish. Check the picture to make sure you’re doing everything correctly. You can now close the window.

Part 4 – Obtaining your public key

This part is super simple.

  1. Open up GPG Keychain, select your key
  2. At the top of the window, click ‘Export’
  3. Give it a name, make sure ‘include secret key in exported file’ is unchecked, and click ‘save’
  4. Open your text editor of choice, browse to where you saved the key, open it
  5. There it is. Copy and paste this on your market profile to make it easier for people to contact you

Part 5 – Obtaining your private key

Again, super simple.

Dark web browser mac
  1. Open up GPG Keychain, select your key
  2. At the top of the window, click ‘Export’
  3. Keep the file name it gives you, check ‘Include secret key in exported file’, then click save
Browser

Keep this file in a safe place, and don’t forget your passphrase. You’re fucked without it!

Part 6 – Importing a public key

This is really easy.

Tor Browser

  1. Find the key you want to import.
  2. Copy everything from ‘—–BEGIN PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK—–‘ to ‘—–END PGP PUBLIC KEY BLOCK—–‘
  3. Paste it into your favourite text editor, highlight everything, right click, go to ‘Services’, then ‘OpenPGP: Import key’
  4. You’ll see this window pop up confirming the key has been imported, click ‘Ok’
  5. Open up GPG Keychain just to confirm the key is there

Part 7 – Importing a private key

Again, really easy.

  1. Open GPG Keychain, click ‘Import’ at the top
  2. Browse to where your key is, click it, then click ‘Open’. It should have a .asc file extension
  3. You’ll see this pop up confirming your key has been imported. Click ‘Close’

Part 8 – Encrypting a message

  1. Open your text editor of choice, write your message
  2. Highlight the message, right click, ‘Services’, ‘OpenPGP: Encrypt’
  3. A window should appear. Select who you’re sending it to, sign it with your key if you wish, click ‘Ok’
  4. Copy everything, and send it to the recipient

Part 9 – Decrypting a message

Pretty much the same process as encrypting

Darknet Browser Mac Free

  1. Open your text editor of choice, paste the message
  2. Highlight everything, right click, ‘Services’, ‘OpenPGP: Decrypt’
  3. A window should pop up. Enter your passphrase, then click ‘Ok’
  4. aannnddddd there’s your message

Part 10 – Conclusion

That wasn’t too hard, was it? Like I said in the intro, you shouldn’t be using OS X for DNM activities due to privacy issues, but I won’t go into it. This took forever to complete because OS X is a bitch to get running properly in a virtual machine. A guide for Windows will be coming next week!

Get connected

If you are in a country where Tor is blocked, you can configure Tor to connect to a bridge during the setup process.

Select 'Tor is censored in my country.'

If Tor is not censored, one of the most common reasons Tor won't connect is an incorrect system clock. Please make sure it's set correctly.

Stay safe

Darknet Browser Mac Os

Please do not torrent over Tor.
Tor Browser will block browser plugins such as Flash, RealPlayer, QuickTime, and others: they can be manipulated into revealing your IP address.

We do not recommend installing additional add-ons or plugins into Tor Browser

Plugins or addons may bypass Tor or compromise your privacy. Tor Browser already comes with HTTPS Everywhere, NoScript, and other patches to protect your privacy and security.

Check out the Tor Browser manual for more troubleshooting tips.
