I began using Tor as a way to circumvent censorship... so anonymity or
privacy were not my primary goals. Some of you may know that I made a
program called ProxAllium which keeps Tor running in the background so
that I can use the SOCKS proxy in my browser to circumvent censorship.

These days it is different though, as I have switched to Linux as my
main operating system and therefore could not use my own program. I also
have a VPN and use Mozilla-Cloudflare's DoH DNS to circumvent DNS-based
censorship from my ISP...
