Hi all, I'd like to announce that the Tor iOS repository is back online! TL;DR is just a two step solution: 1) If you still have the old repository installed, remove the "Sid77's Source" package, otherwise skip to step 2 2) Use Cydia to add a new repository and write or paste this url: http://sid7

OK, this sort of thing has me wondering if the only way to safely use tor is in a virtual machine.  Would this not seem to be the case?  Who cares if Hulu or Youtube gets your IP address if it is a bogus VM IP address rather than your real one?  They get to see either your tor IP or the IP of yo
