- uconnectlol 4y agoI logged into my bank through Tor for 10 years no problem. Until they blocked it.
- officialjunk 4y agoi've never used tor, but wouldn't it be better operational security to not use tor for banking to avoid being fingerprinted/identified, if one cared about remaining anonymous?
- teawrecks 4y agoFingerprinted/ID'ed by who? There is effectively no difference in security with tor when it comes to the end points. The main purpose of tor is to prevent anyone in the middle from getting any information.
- sweetjuly 4y agoAll they'll get is a strong ID on your exit node. That node is, of course, shared by a ton of people and so trying to pick apart the traffic is going to be very difficult
- tentacleuno 4y agoYou can, but I don't feel like risking being locked out of my main checking account. Mind you, Mullvad VPN seems to be working totally fine so far...
- brnt 4y agoI once did, to make a payment. Only at the end did I realize I was in a TOR window. All went through fine. I guess there is no reason not to, if login and 2F check out.
