| you -> VPN/SSH -> Tor | | You can route Tor through VPN/SSH services. That might prevent | your ISP etc from seeing that you're using Tor (VPN/SSH | Fingerprinting below). On one hand, VPNs are more popular than | Tor, so you won't stand out as much, on the other hand, in some | countries replacing an encrypted Tor connection with an encrypted | VPN or SSH connection, will be suspicious as well. SSH tunnels | are not so popular. | | Once the VPN client has connected, the VPN tunnel will be the | machine's default Internet connection, and TBB (Tor Browser | Bundle) (or Tor client) will route through it. | | This can be a fine idea, assuming your VPN/SSH provider's | network is in fact sufficiently safer than your own network. | | Another advantage here is that it prevents Tor from seeing who | you are behind the VPN/SSH. So if somebody does manage to break | Tor and learn the IP address your traffic is coming from, but | your VPN/SSH was actually following through on their promises | (they won't watch, they won't remember, and they will somehow | magically make it so nobody else is watching either), then | you'll be better off. OK, that seems about right.
