Is there any reason we shouldn't consider supporting UDP over Tor with Orbot, by tunneling the packets using the combination of badvpn's tun2socks and udpgw ("udp gateway") feature? This has come up as we are implementing the Android VPNService, and discovered how easy to implement and well performing the badvpn UDP tunneling capability is.
It does mean that someone would have to operate the gateway/infrastructure portion of udpgw at a capacity necessary to handle all udp streaming traffic sent for all Orbot users, but I would consider that to be feasible. Perhaps udpgw instances can be run along side all Tor exit nodes? This means we can support SIP calling over Tor, video conference and streaming, among other applications. https://code.google.com/p/badvpn/ https://code.google.com/p/badvpn/wiki/tun2socks https://github.com/ambrop72/badvpn +n -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
