-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA512 OK, you could also use the TransProxy capabilities of Tor itself. Take a look at the TorTracWiki or here [1] if you want to read more about it. I know privoxy is convenient for ad filtering... Yeah, try that and set your public IP back to the first

I use Privoxy for users who don't want to use the Tor Browser. We are a very mixed bunch of people here, and using the Tor browser may be an insurmountable obstacle for some. I'll disable it as a test tomorrow. 2014-09-02 16:16 GMT+02:00 elrippo : > I personally do not know why you are using priv

Hi All, We have implemented parts of the Tor protocol in Python, it uses UDP and integrated it with a decentralised gossip-based directory service. Today we're launching a public trial for testing and feedback. We hope this could be an alternative for avid torrent users and move some of the file s
