torsocks 2.0 is much better than old torsocks, and better than polipo in most cases. i suspect you won't have any trouble, other than people wondering why their http_proxy envvar assumptions are now invalid. > If it's not, > I don't know, they can reuse the polipo configuration we currently > ship or do something on their own. it would be nice if polipo didn't suck for use with Tor. privoxy has it's own issues, and i have often just use a squid proxy instead, leaving privacy protections to application layers (where it is more robust, anyway) this was tested trying to distribute cryptome archives (many gigs) over spliced HTTP to onions with aria2. polipo and privoxy failed, squid marched on... best regards, _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to [email protected].
