Connecting Over Tor
|
|
===================
|
|
|
|
You can connect to your Embassy from anywhere in the world, privately and anonymously, by using its unique Tor Address (.onion URL).
|
|
|
|
.. note:: Tor connection can sometimes be unreliable and have higher latency than normal internet connections.
|
|
|
|
Using Firefox
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
.. tip:: This is recommended way to connect to your Embassy over Tor, but it requires some additional steps.
|
|
|
|
#. Run Tor (**not Tor Browser**) in the background on your connecting device.
|
|
|
|
.. toctree::
|
|
:maxdepth: 2
|
|
|
|
tor-os/index
|
|
|
|
#. Configure Firefox to handle *.onion* URLs.

|
Using TorBrowser
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|
.. caution:: Tor Browser will allow you to use your Embassy's .onion URL without any manual configuration, however *all* connections are proxied via Tor, so you will not be able to access your Embassy's .local LAN address with it. `Using Firefox <#using-firefox>`_ is recommended over TorBrowser.

|
* Linux, Mac, Windows, Android
|
|
|
|
* `Tor Browser <https://torproject.org/download/>`_
|
|
|
|
* iOS
|
|
|
|
* iOS lacks a well-functioning Tor Browser. Use `Firefox <tor-firefox/torff-ios>`_
