Privoxy

Privoxy is a software that allows Linux users to get access to the onion web, or the deep web like some like to call it.

For starters open the terminal and type sudo apt install Tor.

Once it’s concluded type sudo apt install Privoxy.

After that edit the config file that should be located in /etc/privoxy/ and add “forward-socks5 / 127.0.0.1:9050 .” and save the file (ctrl+x).

Initiate the services for both Tor and Privoxy.

Finally, open your browser. Go to Settings>Network>Connection, switch to “manual proxy”, and add 127.0.0.1 to “HTTP Proxy” “HTTPS Proxy” and “SOCKS Host” also select “Socks v5”. And change the ports from HTTP and HTTPS Proxies to 8118 and SOCKS Host port to 9050.

To confirm that everything is working fine, go to “https://check.torproject.org" and check for green onion.

It’s also possible to see that it’s working by searching something on google and observe where the IP address is pointing to.
