TOR Plugin questions
« on: Today at 05:11:42 am »
Hello

So, I see quite a few links on google and here about configuring etc, but what really is it used for? Is it beneficial beyond me already having NordVPN+OpenVPN config or my Wireguard [really just for home use]? Is it something I should use?
Just casually curious of peoples usages and thoughts on it.

It's a case of whom you trust:

- I trust my ISP, which means I only need a VPN for remote access (inbound)
- I trust my VPN provider, which means I use their VPN to hide my traffic from my ISP
- I trust nobody, so I use TOR to hide my traffic from everybody outside my house

Needless to say, performance gets worse down that list as well.

For me, commercial VPN providers are only an answer to geo-blocking.
