with VPN approach you don't get to control traffic outside routed range, or before VPN activates, or fail-safe if it drops un-expectedly, or ... it's better than nothing, for some less sensitive uses. note that a tor enforcing gateway approach is preferable to transparent proxy, security wise. e.g. corridor. i haven't seen this applied to Android env, which might be interesting safety buffer around Orweb&Orbot. best regards, -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
