It's still relevant. Works if you follow what they say. Privoxy can be a problem. Easier not to use it. In /etc/tor/torrc you can uncomment...


 SOCKSPort 9050
ControlPort 9051
HashedControlPassword 16:

Then start Tor with 'tor -f /etc/tor/torrc' as a user and not as root. In Firefox change the settings under Preferences > Advanced > Network > Connection > Settings > Manual proxy configuration > Socks host = 127.0.0.1 Port 9050 Check the SockV5 box. Check Proxy DNS when using Socks V5

Thanks to all who replied.
google also shows things like
hardened-tor-browser
sandboxed-tor-browser
both of which together prevent the exposure of user identity.
But still I am not sure it is working.
How does one check to see if it is working?

Cheers,

JD
