Hey, folks! Please, tell me what you think about Tornet + VPN combination. To be exact in-browser VPN extention. If you connect to TOR proxy first and then connect to VPN you don’t expose your real IP to a VPN-provider and conceal the fact you’re using TOR (to prevent captchas on sites etc ). This way you could use any VPN (even free tear propriety) Am i right?

I’ve read somewhere that adding too much complexity just lights a beacon your way, like “look at this guy with shitty latency using all these weird ports, he must be up to something”.

However, OP just seems to want to use Tor without falling into Captcha Hell.

Appreciate your comment!

Yeah, it makes sense. I’m probably yet not educated enough to understand what happens under the hood when i use this and that. But i’m glad that there are people that can advise me :)
