Hey, I’m on a mission to build something that challenges a lot of what we know — something that steps beyond the surface of what AI and tech are being used for today. I’m not here for skiddie tools or YouTube-tier tutorials. I want to truly understand hacking: • From basic programming and network fundamentals • To advanced penetration testing, OPSEC, and red team tactics • And eventually into dark web ops, data infiltration, and digital stealth

I’m not here for destructive intent — this is about learning the systems, understanding how the digital battlefield works, and creating tools that actually push boundaries.

I’ve got a deep concept in the works (can’t reveal it all), but it blends AI, security, philosophy, and a custom-built framework. I’m doing all this offline-first and from scratch — no reliance on cloud APIs or prebuilt toys.

I’m looking for: • Forum suggestions (clearnet or darknet) • Books, tools, or full learning paths for real hacking • Maybe even people to learn alongside or mentor if you’re serious

I’m willing to grind hard, just need the map.

Drop any links, resources, or places I should be looking. Let’s work.
