That's some good advice, isthisreallife.....
Anyhoo, I know the thread is regarding the safe browsing of I0p sites. But arguably just as important/more so, is communication with a vend0r. The use of a decent e-m@il provider with encryption is just as important, services like s@femail or pr0t0nmail, both use encryption and are a good free choice.
As for browsing, as people have already suggested a VPN is great choice, though do research the VPN provider you go with, as some DO keep records of your internet activity - even when they say they do NOT on there website! There are some good third party websites that compare the available VPN providers and have feedback from real users.
Also as Iceman says, a Dyn@mic IP(As in, it constantly changes your home IP address) is a great idea, and can be doubled up with some of the VPN providers.
Another good option is to use a, 'Live-0S'; Basically it's just an 0per@ting sy5tem loaded from either a DVD or USB Stick(If your real tech savvy then you could use an .!SO file on a Virtu@l M@chine). But whichever 0perating sy5tem you use for your 'Live-0S', be it L!nux, Wind0ws or whatever, No data will be kept when you physically turn off your computer and No data should get saved to your computer's hard-drive, but using a VPN with a 'Live-0S' is still just as necessary.
AND most definitely using a sec-ure way of c0mmunic@tion with a Vend0r will keep you safer too(u can use encrypt3d e-m@il etc)...

Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path...
