Hey guardian-dev, I was hoping someone can point me in the right direction for NetCipher/Orbot and the ability for other android applications using netcipher to have the ability to issue a new identity.
I personally like this idea, but I could see how if you had multiple applications all with specific use cases for changing identities, it could be end up hurting the performance. Either way I'd like to see how it could be done, Either from implementing in NetCipher or from overriding in a specific application. So please correct my following assumptions if they are incorrect. >From my understanding this file NetCipher-repo/libnetcipher/src/info/guardianproject/netcipher/proxy/OrbotHelper.java is where we (I) would implement something calling the newIdentity function orbot-repo/orbotservice/src/main/java/org/torproject/android/service/TorService.java#L1300 Then once I've created the new identity function called newIdentity in OrbotHelper, then I should just be able to call it in the application doing something along the lines of OrbotHelper.newIdentity() My reasoning behind wanting something like this is for when you have multiple-accounts on a singular platform. i.e. Swapping accounts on the same Mastodon instance, or swapping Reddit accounts, so then each account does not share the same exit node. Am I looking in the right places? Cheers Tim
