1
00:00:00,920 --> 00:00:04,380
In the previous section we learned what is a VPN.
2
00:00:04,490 --> 00:00:09,920
Its benefits and how to connect to it before connected to the TOR network.
3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:16,940
This was very easy as all we had to do is download the client that's compatible with our operating system.
4
00:00:17,060 --> 00:00:23,480
Most VPN providers offer a Linux client and Thales is at an x distro.
5
00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:30,230
Unfortunately though normal Linux clients will not work with Thales because of the restrictions that
6
00:00:30,230 --> 00:00:33,190
Thales apply on the network connections.
7
00:00:33,380 --> 00:00:40,940
Therefore connecting to a VPN from Thales can be a bit tricky and that's why I want to spend this lecture
8
00:00:41,030 --> 00:00:46,790
and the next lecture showing you how to connect to a VPN from Thales.
9
00:00:46,790 --> 00:00:50,380
Now keep in mind you don't have to use a VPN with tales.
10
00:00:50,390 --> 00:00:55,800
This is an optional step and there is a big debate whether you should use a VPN or not.
11
00:00:55,800 --> 00:01:02,390
With Thales because as we know Thales automatically forces all traffic to go through Tor so by default
12
00:01:02,660 --> 00:01:07,050
it is more anonymous and more private than normal operating systems.
13
00:01:07,340 --> 00:01:09,670
So skipped this lecture and the next lecture.
14
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:18,230
If you don't want to use a VPN and only watch it if you actually do want to use a VPN with tales now
15
00:01:18,230 --> 00:01:19,410
just a quick recap.
16
00:01:19,430 --> 00:01:20,830
As we learned before.
17
00:01:20,990 --> 00:01:26,870
Usually when you access a server or anything on the internet you send the request directly to that server
18
00:01:27,230 --> 00:01:32,780
when you use a VPN you create an encrypted tunnel to the VPN server.
19
00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:38,680
So if you're trying to go to Google dot com only the VPN knows that you're going to Google dot com.
20
00:01:38,780 --> 00:01:45,020
The traffic between you and the VPN will be fully encrypted so it's useless to anybody that intercepts
21
00:01:45,020 --> 00:01:45,370
it.
22
00:01:45,530 --> 00:01:51,540
And then once the VPN gets the request it'll forwarded to the actual server that you need to go to.
23
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,870
For example Google dot com.
24
00:01:53,990 --> 00:01:56,130
Now this doesn't have to be Google dot com.
25
00:01:56,150 --> 00:02:02,720
It can be any Web site or any server or on the Internet or you can even send that request to the terror
26
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:09,050
network and access a darknet or a hidden service within the network or go to the Internet after that.
27
00:02:09,050 --> 00:02:16,220
Again improving your privacy and anonymity now because of the way the data is sent in here in an encrypted
28
00:02:16,220 --> 00:02:17,000
manner.
29
00:02:17,060 --> 00:02:23,040
This adds an extra layer of encryption therefore it improves your privacy and anonymity.
30
00:02:23,420 --> 00:02:29,480
If your data gets intercepted by hackers or by your network admin or by your Internet service provider
31
00:02:29,670 --> 00:02:30,760
it will be gibberish.
32
00:02:30,770 --> 00:02:36,320
It'll be useless so they won't be able to stop you or prevent you from in Web sites and they won't be
33
00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:42,380
able to gather information about you so it'll allow you to bypass censorship protect you from hackers
34
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:44,670
and so on.
35
00:02:44,700 --> 00:02:50,620
Now if you want to go over this in more details please revise my lecture on VPN in the previous section.
36
00:02:50,630 --> 00:02:52,640
This is just a quick recap.
37
00:02:52,670 --> 00:02:58,760
Like I said in that lecture we connected to a VPN easily using a client that is made for our operating
38
00:02:58,760 --> 00:02:59,500
system.
39
00:02:59,510 --> 00:03:06,350
The problem that we have now is the fact that we are using Thales because most VPN providers do not
40
00:03:06,350 --> 00:03:14,960
support Thales so going back to how tales work as we know it forces all traffic from our computer to
41
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,870
go through the Tor network.
42
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:22,820
So if we have a VPN provider even if we have a proper subscription with them and we try to connect to
43
00:03:22,820 --> 00:03:29,360
them we won't be able to connect to it because the operating system is forcing all traffic to go through
44
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,000
the Tor network.
45
00:03:31,010 --> 00:03:38,900
Therefore we need to first configure the firewall entails to redirect all data to the VPN Provider instead
46
00:03:38,900 --> 00:03:45,260
of redirecting it to the to our network so we'll configure it to redirect all data through the VPN provider
47
00:03:45,620 --> 00:03:51,110
and then from the VPN provider that has going to go to the turn network it'll bounce over the three
48
00:03:51,110 --> 00:03:59,090
nodes and either access ahead in service within the third network or go to a website on the Internet.
49
00:03:59,370 --> 00:04:05,340
Now if your VPN provider has a tells client then you will not need to manually do this.
50
00:04:05,460 --> 00:04:08,370
The client will do everything for you.
51
00:04:08,370 --> 00:04:15,570
The only problem is most VPN providers do not support Thales so you'll have to do a bit of research
52
00:04:15,570 --> 00:04:18,340
to find the ones that supported.
53
00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:25,240
As you may already know we actually have our own VPN service that as VPN and we support Thales.
54
00:04:25,260 --> 00:04:29,440
So let me show you how the client would work just as an example.
55
00:04:29,550 --> 00:04:34,870
So all they have to do is literally downloaded from the downloads page in here.
56
00:04:34,890 --> 00:04:40,350
I'll actually include a link to this in their resources in case you want to get more information.
57
00:04:40,380 --> 00:04:46,830
All you will need to do is simply download the client and as you can see I already have it downloaded
58
00:04:46,830 --> 00:04:49,590
in here in my persistent downloads.
59
00:04:49,590 --> 00:04:56,860
It's called as VPN and I'm just gonna run it like so do it forward slash followed by the file name.
60
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,800
It's gonna ask me what do I want to do.
61
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:04,890
I'm gonna say I want to Kinect it will ask me for the user name and password.
62
00:05:04,890 --> 00:05:08,420
Then it'll list all the servers available to me.
63
00:05:08,580 --> 00:05:12,810
So all I have to do right now is select the server that I want to connect to.
64
00:05:12,810 --> 00:05:20,400
For example let's say I wanted to connect to Mexico 1 8 9 so I'm just going to type 1 8 9 and enter.
65
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,810
As you can see it will automatically configure the VPN settings.
66
00:05:23,860 --> 00:05:30,420
It'll automatically configure the firewall so I'm just gonna put my password now the system password
67
00:05:30,430 --> 00:05:37,560
the root password and again it'll automatically download Open VPN if it's not downloaded and it will
68
00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,440
connect to the server that I selected.
69
00:05:40,470 --> 00:05:46,110
So as you can see right here it seems that I'm connected to Mexico and that's it.
70
00:05:46,110 --> 00:05:50,040
Now we're ready to go and browse the internet to confirm this.
71
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,790
I'm gonna go and run my tor browser.
72
00:05:54,760 --> 00:06:02,090
And I'm just gonna go to check the Tor Project dot org and perfect as you can see it's still an that
73
00:06:02,090 --> 00:06:06,890
my browser right now is configured to use data or browser.
74
00:06:06,890 --> 00:06:13,460
So right now what's happening is we're connecting to the VPN first and then our traffic is routed to
75
00:06:13,460 --> 00:06:19,370
the TOR network and then like I said we can bounce through three nodes and then go to the Internet or
76
00:06:19,370 --> 00:06:26,400
stay within the Tor network and access onion hidden services now going back to the client.
77
00:06:26,430 --> 00:06:29,400
You can put number one if you want a connect again.
78
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:33,240
Number two to disconnect three to reset the firewall settings.
79
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:40,710
So you're directly connected to Tor and you're not using the VPN and forth to simply quit the client.
80
00:06:40,710 --> 00:06:43,050
So as you can see it's very easy.
81
00:06:43,140 --> 00:06:50,550
If you're a VPN Provider supports tales if you're a VPN provider does not support Thales then you'll
82
00:06:50,550 --> 00:06:57,870
have to manually modify the firewall settings so that it allows you to connect to the VPN and manually
83
00:06:57,870 --> 00:07:02,460
use the VPN settings to connect to the VPN server.
84
00:07:02,460 --> 00:07:08,770
This is a little bit technical and requires a little bit of Linux knowledge but don't worry about it.
85
00:07:08,790 --> 00:07:12,330
I will walk you through it step by step and the next lecture.
