00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,470
in this video, we're going to show you how to install tor on linux.

2
00:00:04,470 --> 00:00:06,380
specifically we'll be using ubuntu.

3
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:09,660
this is the standard desktop ubuntu release.

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:12,430
if you want other linux versions, let me know.

5
00:00:12,430 --> 00:00:16,560
although most ubuntu flavor, debian flavors are going to be pretty straightforward.

6
00:00:16,620 --> 00:00:22,770
i personally haven't messed with anything like arch or anything more complicated to try to install tor on.

7
00:00:22,770 --> 00:00:24,080
there's not much benefit.

8
00:00:24,220 --> 00:00:27,960
if you're already building those, you'll know how to install tor, so you should be set.

9
00:00:28,100 --> 00:00:33,840
but in this case, we'll go ahead and switch over to our ubuntu desktop and we'll look at installing tor.

10
00:00:35,340 --> 00:00:44,050
okay, so here on the ubuntu desktop, we'll of course start by opening up a web browser like we have before, and we will go to the torproject dot org.

11
00:00:44,050 --> 00:00:45,930
now there's a couple ways to install on linux.

12
00:00:45,930 --> 00:00:54,040
you could of course install without using the web browser at all, but we'll just do this route just to show you the easiest way.

13
00:00:54,700 --> 00:00:58,550
we can go ahead and click that download for linux and it will start it.

14
00:00:58,550 --> 00:01:00,050
you'll see that's the 2nd one.

15
00:01:00,050 --> 00:01:01,680
i just downloaded it a minute ago.

16
00:01:02,020 --> 00:01:04,810
and we have another file here from a different video we were working on.

17
00:01:04,810 --> 00:01:06,600
so you can ignore that one.

18
00:01:06,900 --> 00:01:20,750
and once it's downloaded, you can see in your downloads, actually, if we go, if we go here, we can go to our downloads and you can see in there we have two tor- browser- linux folders.

19
00:01:20,750 --> 00:01:25,800
so we'll go ahead and just tar xf, the tor browser, just one of them.

20
00:01:26,060 --> 00:01:29,720
and what that will do is decompress the zipped file.

21
00:01:33,220 --> 00:01:34,800
so give that a moment to run.

22
00:01:38,020 --> 00:01:42,600
and once that's done, if we look again, now you can see that there's a folder called tor browser.

23
00:01:43,140 --> 00:01:46,280
we can actually take a look in that folder to see what's in there.

24
00:01:46,420 --> 00:01:49,000
and there's the browser and the start tor browser.

25
00:01:49,100 --> 00:01:49,720
desktop.

26
00:01:51,380 --> 00:01:55,440
so there is a couple ways to go about installing this now that we have unzipped it.

27
00:01:55,580 --> 00:02:00,050
we can go through the graphical way, which is like through the menus here.

28
00:02:00,050 --> 00:02:06,210
we can go into here, we could find this, we can look at the properties on this, look at the permissions.

29
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:13,790
we can say allow executing file as a program and that would basically allow it to run when we click on it.

30
00:02:13,790 --> 00:02:22,370
and if we double click on this, you'll notice if it just loads a text file like this, we need to change the way this is actually executed within linux.

31
00:02:22,370 --> 00:02:24,450
so that can get pretty complicated.

32
00:02:24,450 --> 00:02:26,190
so these are ways back on the command line.

33
00:02:26,190 --> 00:02:31,210
if we just go into tor browser, we can literally just run the start tor browser.

34
00:02:31,210 --> 00:02:35,760
so if you just navigate to it, it launches it.

35
00:02:36,300 --> 00:02:37,840
we'll wait a 2nd here.

36
00:02:38,060 --> 00:02:41,880
see, it's creating a bunch of files there and boom, tor is there and running.

37
00:02:42,340 --> 00:02:44,570
so very straightforward way to do that.

38
00:02:44,570 --> 00:02:46,910
that's probably the easiest way is just straight run that file.

39
00:02:46,910 --> 00:02:48,640
if you have issues with this, let me know.

40
00:02:49,020 --> 00:02:55,480
there is a good page which i will go ahead and link on here.

41
00:03:01,220 --> 00:03:07,730
so if you have any concerns or questions about this installation method, go ahead and check out the tor project manuals, right?

42
00:03:07,730 --> 00:03:08,630
tv- manual.

43
00:03:08,630 --> 00:03:10,950
torproject dot org installation.

44
00:03:10,950 --> 00:03:14,070
and you can see more info about the linux installation.

45
00:03:14,070 --> 00:03:15,390
pretty straightforward there.

46
00:03:15,390 --> 00:03:18,320
we ended up just doing this command line method much easier.

47
00:03:18,540 --> 00:03:21,520
i mean, this was where we ran into that issue where it doesn't launch.

48
00:03:21,860 --> 00:03:24,230
so if you have any issues with that, let me know.

49
00:03:24,230 --> 00:03:27,680
otherwise follow that command line method for ubuntu and you should be good to go.

50
00:03:28,540 --> 00:03:29,750
and that's it for this one.

51
00:03:29,750 --> 00:03:31,890
if you have any questions, of course, let us know.

52
00:03:31,890 --> 00:03:32,790
add some comments.

53
00:03:32,790 --> 00:03:34,400
otherwise, we'll see you in the next one.
