Title: Am i exposed, URGENT
Post by: goodguy on July 30, 2012, 03:15 pm
basically i changed Tor browser (only this once until i know this is safe) to instead of using a socks proxy to go to [http proxy 127.0.0.1:8118] which is polipo and the polipo config file says its parent proxy is tor so am i more or less vunerable using this method

e.g. is  polipo --> tor --> hidden service           safer than         tor --> hidden service

I NEED AN ANSWER ASAP

So is using off the bat TorBrowser from  Tor Bundle unsafe?
