Hello, I have recently started using TOR and would like to understand and clarify some doubts:
My DNS doubts: 1) If I use Norton ConnectSafe for Home (the cloud-based DNS Web filtering service); am I risking i) to loose my anonymity (i.e my IP, etc.) and/or ii) to be totally susceptible for my internet/Jitsi trafficto be captured and tracked by any attacker? 2) If I useOpenDNS Parental Control Solutions such as OPEN DNS Premium DNS or OPEN DNS Home; am I risking i) to loose my anonymity (i.e my IP, etc.) and/or ii) to be totally susceptible for my internet/Jitsi trafficto be captured and tracked by any attacker (Norton, my local network administrator, or any government)? 3) If I use alternatively theOPEN DNS DNSCryptfor Windows, (combined or not with 1 or any of 2); am I risking i) to loose my anonymity (i.e my IP, etc.) and/or ii) to be totally susceptible for my internet/Jitsi trafficto be captured and tracked by any attacker (Norton, my local network administrator, or any government)? 4) If I run TBBundle together with a Non-TOR say Chrome session, and a Non-TOR 'Forex application' session (i.e Metatrader or Saxobank); am I risking i) to loose my anonymity (i.e my IP, etc.) and/or ii) to be totally susceptible for my internet/Jitsi trafficto be captured and tracked by any attacker (Norton, my local network administrator, or any government)? I would like to mention that yesterday I received a note by h...@rt.torproject.org saying thatI CAN use TBB alongside a Non-Tor session say in Chrome, if I keep them separate I would not loose anonymity. I feel this is totally wrong since my IP would be well established, and also my using of TOR. Hence, an attacker can 'own' me easily. 5) I would like to configure to be a relay though I saw in the Network Map that the people "relaying" were shown with their IP address and platforms detailed. Isn´t this dangerous, I mean, doesn't a person giving relay (obviously a Tor user) loose its anonymity by publishing his IP? See below: SandDune (Online) IP Address: 99.184.105.130 Platform: Tor 0.2.2.35 (git-b04388f9e7546a9f) on Windows XP Service Pack 3 [workstation] Bandwidth: 55.90 KB/s Uptime: 21 hours 4 mins 52 secs Last Updated: 2012-05-22 17:49:50 GMT 6) Finally, would you recommend www.hushmail.com as a webmail service that respect -quite as Tor.org- our user anonymity? Well, my apologies for the long questionnaire....I thank you all very much in advance for your "liberation" drive. Peace. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
