how do i actually become a black hat hacker? : hacking | Torhoo darknet markets

Please fucking stop with Kali. It is way too much overrated. It is simply a distro with tools pre installed.
You DO NOT need any specific distro to learn "pentesting". I actually strongly advise you AGAINST using any specific distro to learn. You need to learn how to do things by yourself. Specific distros like blackarch are simply here to make things easier and save you time once you are advanced, not before.

My advice is to start from where it all begins, layer 0, then move up to layer 7. Knowing how everything inside devices are actually made is necessary to understand how to destroy them. Learn first how to make everything before even thinking on destroying them. Do you try blindly to make a hole inside a wall without knowing first how it is made of so you know the proper drill to use?

But the main thing to remember is this one - so called "hackers" are completely self-taught, no one teached them how to do it. So if you can't find by yourself where to start, how to find what to learn first and things like this by yourself and need to ask - then this field is definitely not for you. Sorry to break your dream.

You dont just "become" a black hat hacker. This is something individual hackers spend decades fine tuning. And a specific hackers power can do one thing, anothers can do another.
For example, I once completely bypassed spam filters and double post blocks, and the captcha on reddit comments a few years ago. I used a simple method that fit my own computer experiences, and I was just fucking around and found it. It is patched now.

I would recomend starting at networking and programming, yes. Also AI may be helpful depending on what you want to do. Basically anything related to computers is good, you will find exploits on random sites.

But the chances of you hacking any given site/server with a team of programmers is basically zero. You can find exploits on somewhat random sites, but people spend decades trying to hack into these services.

have you tried going to college?

Check out Hacktown all your questions will be answered

Maybe thinking courses are shitty is a bad mindset cuz u will learn from literaly anyone, even from me, thats why im gonna give u my story instead of spoon feeding u + it feels good ;)

Personaly i started by a paid cource i found on for free. on the start i learned how website vulnerabilitys acutally worked then i started using automated tools like owaspzap (it scans the site for vulns)
then i moved on to malwares (i was using windows RATs and getting Ratted myself having to reset the os) here i learned how can i reverse shell someone with linux using tools such as thefatrat and metasploit

and thats it i didnt hack the nsa or nasa

faults i did were,
