Re: [tor-talk] Why do you use Tor?

I'm also curious as to whether users on this list only use Tor or if there are times they use a normal browser (if so what tasks). For my own part, I use tor when I want to access a .onion site, as a "even more private" browser, but also just to access my own sites/services from outside my network. Sometimes I use it for no particular reason at all, under the theory that more legitimate traffic helps those who are using tor for legitimate (non-malicious) reasons where their safety and security is a factor. -- 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

When streaming, bit rate is usually adapted dynamically to fit the actual line speed, while a download should yield in the resolution you requested. So, total transfer volume is not necessarily equals in both cases. - Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words."

Re: [tor-talk] Streaming Videos VS Downloading Videos
comparison should be equal , like full video downloaded and full video streamed.
