the VPN provider can try to share whatever information but most reputable providers would have nothing

You can pay for a VPN using monero or cash and then connect to the VPN from TOR - VPN provider doesn’t need to know anything

Please don't do this. Most people aren't going to pull this off correctly and if they think this makes it safe for them to go around messing with companies they could really get themselves in a lot of trouble.

If I were to mess around with stuff, and im not. The only way I'm doing that is with a used laptop of Craigslist or whatever and cafe with no cameras, even then idk.

      Sorry you will never catch me using hardware to commit a crime that's ever connected to my home or work networks or ever in anyway been associated with my name. IDC about the OS. But I'm not going to commit a crime either so I don't worry about this FYI

If you're already using Tor, what's the point of having a VPN too?

    There isn’t a point. It is useless security theatre for those who do not understand how tor works.

      it's called defense in depth which makes sense if your life depends on it not to mention tor is most likely blocked while VPS/VPN aren't

    So the target doesn’t see a bunch of random connections coming from tor/known exit nodes
