It was my error. I think the issue was that my 'torrc' file was taken from an earlier version of the TBB. Installing the latest version again (even though I was already using 9.0.4) with a new 'torrc' allows me to set ExitNodes 'whatever' and the TBB does stick to that exitnode. Thank you for

I don't want to come across as critical but ExitNodes with one node just doesn't work. Looking at the Tor Circuits, it starts with 'hands' but then moves on to other exit nodes. My torrc is simply: ExitNodes hands On Sun, February 2, 2020 10:57 pm, Roger Dingledine wrote: > On Fri, Jan 31,

I have StrictNodes 1 and ExitNodes hands in my torrc. However, when using TBB, I discovered that I was often using other exit nodes. Clicking "New Circuit for this site" then placed hands back as the exit node. Any ideas why? Just the one exit node in the torrc. This suggests to me that
