[tor-talk] Tor users from Finland jumped from 25 000 to 200 000
Hello, There have been around 25 000 Tor users from Finland. The number of users is very stable. Except right now I see a spike of 200 000 Tor users connected from Finland. Number of users starts to increase on Tuesday 2021-12-21. https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-relay-country.html?start=2021-10-13=2022-01-11=fi=off In addition, there is a spike in non-direct bridge users from Finland as well. https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-bridge-country.html?start=2021-10-13=2022-01-11=fi All this is happening only in Finland and we can easily see that from other countries nearby, like Denmark, Norway and Sweden, the number of connected users is flat stable. For instance, see numbers from Sweden: https://metrics.torproject.org/userstats-relay-country.html?start=2021-10-13=2022-01-11=se=off Someone could speculate that this is some kind of test carried out from Finnish IP range or a bot network infecting only Finnish machines like poorly configured home routers and installing malware communicating through Tor. Furthermore, there was known Tor censorship in Russia in December, see https://blog.torproject.org/tor-censorship-in-russia/. The fact we know is the increasing number of Tor users from Finland. Do we actually know something concrete behind this?

Re: [tor-talk] Can I route web traffic through Tor followed by a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy?
Yes, run Anonsurf on Linux, Tallow on Windows or some other software that allows you to route your whole system through Tor and than configure your web browser to use a proxy.

[tor-talk] Can I route web traffic through Tor followed by a SOCKS or HTTPS proxy?
Hello, Is there a way to have HTTP(S) content run through Tor then through a proxy (HTTPS or SOCKS). For example: a) Run Tor (entry node, middle node, exit node). b) In browser (TBB or any other browser) set the proxy settings to a HTTPS or SOCKS proxy. c) Connect to a site. So: a) website records the IP of the proxy. b) proxy owner records the IP of the exit node. The purpose of this would be to push web traffic through Tor but have the destination site record the IP of an anonymous but non-Tor IP. Could torsocks (for example) be used? Thank you. -- 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
