Mirror rotation playbook for July outages

When one onion stalls, rotate in order — never jump to the first Google result.

Outage weeks produce two problems at once: real mirrors go dark, and phishing clones stay up. The fix is boring and effective.

Order of operations

  1. Try the next onion on the same market page.
  2. Confirm the anti-phishing phrase.
  3. Only then look at a trusted clearnet hub for redistribution.

Skipping step two is how credentials get harvested.
