In this person's case, they trusted the ISP less as it is a UK ISP and so subject to the recent "Cameron Porn Filter", and all other filters that are probably coming down the track. Regarding the VPN provider, I don't know how trustworthy witopio is. > Using VPNs tunneled through Tor is always less anonymous than using > Tor alone.

When you say "except when the VPN reconnects" you mean the VPN end-point reconnecting to the Tor node, or the end-user reconnecting to the VPN node? I presume the latter. > However, using VPNs tunneled through Tor is always more anonymous > than using VPNs alone. And that may be necessary for accessing > websites that block Tor exits. Good point. I will find out more.
