It isn’t really meant for that, and would be overkill. Running a local proxy server in an Android Service isn’t that difficult. Alternatively, you could use the VPNBuilder interface, which would make "gate keeping and toll taking functions” work quite well. I would look at NetGuard for that: https://github.com/M66B/NetGuard +n -- 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
