in this video, we're going to install tor on macos.
so we'll hop on over to our mac desktop to take a look.
it should be a pretty straightforward install process, but wanted to make a video in case anyone had any issues.
so let's hop on over here.
and on our mac os desktop, we're going to go to torproject dot org and select the download tor browser button.
we'll click download for mac os.
we're using safari, so it does pop up a warning.
we'll click allow, and then we'll just wait for this download to complete, which should be shortly.
and once the download is complete, we'll open that dmg file and it will give us the normal mac look where you drag the contents of the folder into your applications.
once we do that, it will copy it over and then we can actually navigate to finder once it's complete, look for tor and launch it.
and assuming everything went correctly, you'll see that tor launches correctly.
it'll have a little warning there.
we'll say open and tor should open.
we can click connect, which will take a 2nd because tor is notoriously slow, but once connected, you will be good to go.
and we can verify this once it's connected by going to onionlink hub and opening up a website.
we'll open up a mia to see if it loads.
we'll try the cia site as well.
so we'll go ahead and let them load here.
again, tor is very slow, especially on the 1st time launching it.
so give it a 2nd to allow everything to connect and configured correctly.
but one of these should load and it looks like ami is loading 1st.
so we can go over to that tab and we can verify that it's loading and content is showing up.
so now we know that we are on a dot onion service, meaning tor is correctly set up and configured.
and that's really it for the setup.
if you have any questions, of course, let me know.
otherwise, we'll see you in the next one.
