Then kills other tor processes and start a brand-new session with custom torrc. That enable a transparent proxy port and a DNS relay on TOR. The purpose of this 'exercise' is to create a script that allows semi-automatically to configure the system to route all output connections made by the current user through TOR.īased on this tutorial, the script (that need to be started as root: also this not a best practice!) creates a custom torrc file with this options: So, consider this script as a simple exercise, not privacy-focused.
Operating system updates, emails, web browsing, and fetching information about media you play will all share the same circuit, so the exit node could connect all of these things together and link them to a single entity: things intended to be anonymous could be linked to things which reveal your identity or used as a fingerprint that an observer watching Exit traffic could piece together. When you take your whole operating system and stick it behind transparent proxying, everything goes over Tor using, by default, the same circuit. Please note: this is not a best practice. Using operating system's packet filtering system is possible to redirect all outbound connections into a transparent proxy. Tor has support for transparent proxy connections in addition to SOCKS connections. Yes, It's possible, using a specific feature of Tor.
The starting idea comes from a colleague that asked me: "Is it possibile routing all system traffic thougth TOR, using it as a sort of VPN?".
