Where does someone find a black hat mentor/community? : hacking | Torhoo darknet markets
Yo, was wondering where people find mentors or communities for hacking/blackhat/all of the above. I'm going through a few bug bounty courses and they're extremely useful and informational but a lot of them feel inauthentic since I'm essentially just following along a tutorial, trying it myself, then the cycle repeats and I don't really have any real world scenarios or extra curriculars since I don't personally know anyone in the cyber industry.
All I could find are "paid" groups for C++, Java, or Python that have "communities" aimed towards beating leetcode interviews for that sweet sweet FAANG job, but honestly that doesn't interest me much and if I was to learn that type of stuff it would be more tailored to research, new developing techniques, machine learning, or AI research and none of those groups are into that stuff.
