Follow this step-by-step guide to access WeTheNorth Market with maximum anonymity. Each step addresses a specific privacy or security concern.
Download from torproject.org only. Verify the PGP signature of the installer before running it. Never use third-party Tor Browser distributions.
In Tor Browser, click the shield icon → Advanced Security Settings → Set to Safest. This disables JavaScript, which is mandatory before visiting any .onion marketplace.
A no-log VPN before Tor (VPN → Tor) hides from your ISP that you're using Tor at all. Use providers like Mullvad (accepts cash/crypto) or ProtonVPN. Ensure the VPN does not log traffic.
Before navigating to the market, verify the WeTheNorth Onion address against the market's PGP-signed message using the public key on the PGP Verification tab. Never click links from forums without verification.
Copy the verified .onion address from the URL tab above and paste it directly into the Tor Browser address bar. Do not type it — copy-paste to avoid typographical errors that lead to phishing sites.
Use a completely new username not associated with any clearnet identity. Use a password manager (KeePassXC, offline only) to generate and store a 20+ character random password. Enable 2FA immediately.
Generate a PGP keypair using GnuPG or Kleopatra (offline). Upload the public key to your market profile. Always encrypt vendor communications with their PGP key and request they use yours.
