Applications connect to the local Tor : proxy using the SOCKS protocol. The local proxy chooses a path through a set of relays, in which each relay : knows its predecessor and successor, but no others. Traffic flowing down the circuit is unwrapped by a : symmetric key at each relay, which reveals the downstream relay. Warnings: Tor does no protocol cleaning. : That means there is a danger that application protocols and associated programs can be induced to reveal : information about the initiator. Tor depends on Privoxy and similar protocol cleaners to solve this problem. : This is alpha code, and is even more likely than released code to have anonymity-spoiling bugs. The present : network is very small -- this further reduces the strength of the anonymity provided. Tor is not presently : suitable for high-stakes anonymity. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
